Cri-Cri

A unique four-engine aircraft has literally turned the future of aviation propulsion upside down. Developed with the support of EADS Innovation Works, this low-cost testbed is a French Cri-Cri ultra-light aircraft that has been modified for all-electric propulsion – with its original pair of nine-horsepower piston engines replaced by four brushless electrical motors, each powered by a high energy-density lithium polymer battery.
