GenPod® 70 LRU Key Features

Quick Mount Interface

This innovative feature allows users to swap engines in record time.

Zero Down Time

Maintain flight ops tempo: keep all vehicles in operation! A GenPod® 70 LRU, plus a spare, saves operators tens of thousands of dollars in scheduled maintenance down time.

Rapid Integration

The GenPod® 70 LRU integrates into new aircraft designs with very little R&D effort. Companies can spend hundreds of engineering hours determining placement of ECU components, fuel system lines and pump, and filters. And designing vibration isolation.

The GenPod® LRU eliminates all this work.

Simply plug in the power, connect the fuel tank and provide a throttle position. Start occurs with a simple 5V signal.

Built-In Starter Generator

Comes with a built-in starter and up to 500 W of electrical power for the avionics system.

The starter generator system, as well as power management unit, is included in the price.
