These aircraft were built by Avions Pierre Robin in France who make a number of types of light aircraft, principally those descended from the earlier Jodel series. Bright red, brand new (diesel!) Menu. In contrast, the Lycoming versions have fixed pitch propellers and three levers−for throttle, mixture and carburettor heat. From the first DR100 to the current DR401 model, these aircraft are all distinguished by their characteristic 'cranked wing' outer panel dihedral and their wonderful all-wood construction. Aeroklub Polski ŻAR | Robin DR.400 series. In any sense of the word it is a successful aircraft. Forum; Latest. My first flight in a DR400 diesel was ten years ago, in an Ecoflyer powered by a Thielert 1.7 litre engine. This time our takeoff mass is around 915kg, 185kg less than maximum. Pierre Robin’s first aircraft was a two-seat Jodel D.11, and from this he progressed to producing several Jodel-designed low wing monoplanes, including the subject of this month’s flight test, the DR400.

Far from being outmoded, it represents proven know-how, just like the all-metal construction used by some light aircraft models for more than sixty years. In addition, this wood-based manufacturing is part of a sustainable process. The Robin DR400 is a wooden sport monoplane, conceived by Pierre Robin and Jean Délémontez. While Textron/Cessna has announced the discontinuation of Skyhawk JT-A production, Robin Aircraft believes in the success of its diesel range. However, when taxying, the pull of the CS prop, even with the power lever at idle (6 to 7% displayed on the power meter) is significant, and it may be necessary to use the brakes to regulate speed. 5.Correct collision. There is, nevertheless, no tendency to 'nose down' in slow flight and the flare is still easy to negotiate. Robin dr400 cdi 135 diesel. The opinion of Robin Aircraft. This configuration is a good compromise for mixed training/touring use. The new Robin DR401 CDI 155 is a wooden sport monoplane, conceived by Robin Aircrafts.

With the flaps up and 130kph indicated (approximately 74kt) our rate of climb is just under 800fpm. Toe brakes on, full power until the digital display indicates 100% power and 2,300rpm, then off with the toe brakes and the acceleration is impressive, the rotation speed of 55kt being reached in a few seconds. Only users with topic management privileges can see it. For the diesel versions, the cost of Jet A1, the frugality of the engines, and their ability to run on biodiesel are additional economic and ecological benefits. The Continental Diesel engines that now equip Robin aircraft are still manufactured in Lichtenstein, south of Stuttgart in Germany but, compared to the original Centurion 1.7, the time between replacement (TBR) has been increased to 2,100 hours. Only the humming of the CD-155, more muted than the hoarse sound of a Lycoming and with much less vibration, will remind you that you are pulled by a diesel engine and, despite the added mass of the engine installation, the flight qualities of the aircraft are unaltered, starting with the ground acceleration, which I thought was much more eager than with the DR401-160A. The performance from the 135hp engine seemed tepid and the central position of the throttle on a Robin baffled me, although this configuration is standard on most aircraft (as it is now on the DR401). Thus, it can be used for training at a cost barely higher than that of the 120hp DR401 Lite or 120A petrol engine Lycoming versions thanks to fuel savings. In addition, turbocharging helps maintain performance at altitude. Link to this page: Just setup these options on your Account Settings. So whilst at sea level the 155CDI has only a small advantage over the 160A (at the same mass), the difference widens with altitude as the air thins. The Robin DR 400 is 38.5 KB. Thus, the diesel engine could create a new market for Robin aircraft in places where Avgas is not distributed.

It flew for the first time in 1972 and at least 1300 were build. Note, however, that the transfer rate is lower than the cruise consumption of the engine, so the pilot needs to think ahead! Apex was one of the first manufacturers to adopt diesel technology by installing the Thielert CD135 in the DR400 airframe (the 'Ecoflyer'). The wooden construction remains the trademark of the aircraft with its disadvantages and (especially) its advantages. Description. It has a tricycle undercarriage, and can carry four people. Back to the apron to change mounts. On the other hand, petrol engines produce more CO2, and avgas pollutes with lead. Even in this (very) unusual flight attitude, there is no tendency to drop a wing, confirming the stability associated with the Jodel-Robin design. Continental Diesel ist die führende Marke für zertifizierte Kerosin-Kolbenflugmotoren in der Allgemeine Luftfahrt. We then level off to look at different cruising regimes. This DR 400 is probably one of the cleanest examples we have seen in a long while. The wind is almost zero and our takeoff weight around 810kg.

With 65kt on the ASI, the rate of climb is over 1,000fpm. Interior space is the same for all 401 models, as they share the same airframe; the MTOW is determined by engine performance. In addition, I was not used to the minimal effort needed to operate the power control. This equates to nearly 797fpm at sea level under ISA conditions at the 1,000kg MTOW. The performance from the 135hp engine seemed tepid and the central position of the throttle on a Robin baffled me, although this configuration is standard on most aircraft (as it is now on the DR401). The DR.400 is widely used as a glider tug aircraft. The Dijon—Darois airfield is bordered at its southern end by a main road.

The DR401 features a new glass cockpit, larger cockpit, electric trim and flaps. Although this test compared the Continental 155hp and the Lycoming 160hp because of the similarity of their nominal powers, in fact the DR401-155CDI is closer to the 180LR in terms of performance, particularly taking into account the CDI's ability to operate continuously at 100% power. First and foremost, the marriage between a high-torque diesel engine, a constant speed propeller and modern, automatic engine management yields impressive performance for a given power. The Robin DR400 first flew in 1972 and is still in production. More importantly, in countries where recreational aviation is not so developed, the problem of 100LL supply is not so easily solved. Robin DR-400. JODEL ROBIN DR400 | BH129. Crew: 1: Robin's problems stemmed primarily from the failure of the Thielert company whose diesel engines were being used extensively in new Robin aircraft. With more than 35 degrees indicated on the PFD, the angle of attack gradually increases until the aircraft literally hangs on the propeller until−with stick fully back−the aircraft finally starts to drop earthwards at fifty knots indicated−well below stall speed. Robin DR401 flight test My first flight in a DR400 diesel was ten years ago, in an Ecoflyer powered by a Thielert 1.7 litre engine. Apex saw the future of the single engine piston aircraft as being diesel, using universally available jet, military, automotive and biofuels in any mixture, and based its production almost exclusively on this engine. The DR400-180 with VP prop is quite the short field machine and this aircraft has the upside of a 4 blade MT prop further enhancing performance.
