#INSIDEATOM80 – TECHNICAL FEATURES
The Atom 80 cames from a story that started over 20 years ago, with the development of 2 small displacement engines, thanks to the intuitions of Vittoriano Orazi, founder of the Vittorazi Motors.
Firstly, the revolutionary know-how of VR80, the first and most important piece of the puzzle, created by Vittoriano; then, the improvements of Fly 100, which has enhanced the final result, thanks to the important technical evolution attained. Today Atom 80 represents the complete synthesis and development of these two research and design paths; an accomplishment that we would like to introduce you to in details.
First of all, the Atom 80 required 3 years of development in the company to attain a definitive prototype. Born from the great teamwork of mechanical engineers experts in the construction of a two-stroke engines, Atom 80 was tested for more than 18 months and easily exceeding 200h of flight. Bench endurance tests were performed up to 10h non-stop at its maximum power (90% RPM) without finding any sign of damage.
Atom 80 is also the lightest engine ever created by Vittorazi and 100% made in Italy. The weight/power ratio has been optimized as the presence of fewer elements simplifies the structure of the engine, reduces weight and enhances reliability. Students can practice much more easily, with less effort, and learn faster: they have major sensitivity to the wing during the flight and run less risks during the takeoff and landing stages.
There are many other technical news and curiosities that we will talk about.
