I news I Soloy MKII Sentinel Outfitted—Final Flight Eval Complete
In its final stages of airborne observation configuration, Soloy’s MKII Sentinel aircraft was outfitted with two popular airborne observation cameras and flight evaluated. Recently L3 Wescam and FLIR each provided Soloy
their latest cameras to mount for flight evaluation and demonstration to prospective customers. Mounted on the Sentinel’s STC’d wing
hardpoint, Soloy test pilots flew the Sentinel through its normal flight envelop and confirmed handling characteristics with both the L3
MX15HDi and the FLIR Star Safire cameras. Additionally, the wing mounted camera provided a
rock solid image to the camera operator who found no vibration or lens angle interference from the camera’s wing mounted position. Law enforcement and airborne observation
users seeking a flexible and cost effective alternative to the more expensive helicopter platform can schedule a Sentinel demonstration and experience the performance this airborne observation aircraft offers.
Brochure Describes Digitally Controlled, Mechanical Bolting Products
Advanced Torque Products (ATP) has released a new, full-color, capabilities brochure describing its extensive line of bolting products. These products are especially suited to aircraft and aerospace maintenance, repair & overhaul, marine, land and wind turbine, industrial, automotive and commercial applications. ATP’s digitally controlled, mechanical torque multipliers offer torque ranges from 600 to 40,000 ft./lbs., with accuracy to ±1 percent, even over extreme temperature fluctuations. These lightweight, all-mechanical multipliers require no external power and present a small, ergonomic footprint. A host of drive adapters and mounting fixtures accommodate existing tooling for nearly any application. Their digital controllers provide transmitter options, programmable scales for International measurement standards and peripheral interface for excellent adaptability. A line of hand-held torque wrenches with square drives, from 1/4” to 1” and in-between sizes, offers accuracy to ±3 percent. ATP calibration systems to 12,000 ft./lbs., with NIST-traceable accuracy to ±0.25 percent of full scale are also featured. Their interchangeable transducers permit recalibration without downtime. ATP strain gages and load cells for torque measurement are included in the brochure.
