Gunskirchen, Austria, July 19th, 2021 – BRP-Rotax announced that it will stop the production of the legendary 2-stroke Rotax 582 UL aircraft engine by end of 2021. This decision has been taken considering the nearly full transition of the light and ultralight aircraft market towards 4-stroke aircraft engines.
BRP-Rotax is proud to announce the cooperation with LLS Ltd. from Israel, offering their application frontline.io for service, maintenance, training and sales activities for the worldwide network as well as the coding of a product configuration tool. This step opens up a multitude of advantages building a bridge between the physical world and a variety of possibilities of XR-technologies like AR and VR.
ROTAX has just released a new state-of-the art online engine configuration tool. Using this tool, you can load an accurate 3D model of a current production engine, and experiment with all the various configuration options. The model can be rotated and zoomed on-screen, and as you change the various options, the total weight of the engine is updated and displayed in realtime! When you have it configured just as you like it, you can then email yourself a link to download a PDF of the configuration (and optionally you can pass it to ROTAX to have your local authorized ROTAX dealer follow up on it with you.)
