The 4th generation part-23

Elixir Aircraft, a company headquartered in La Rochelle, France, with over 150 employees, was created in 2015 to meet the challenges of Global General aviation.

The objective of the French company : to make safer, more economical and more versatile aircraft. Complexity is the reason why current aircraft suffer from failures (technical or human), and are expensive to operate (consumption and maintenance). Elixir Aircraft employs a technology from the world of competitive sailing, the Carbon Oneshot, to simplify the structures. More simplicity means less failure, therefore more safety, but also less maintenance, and less costs (estimates of 40h/60$/h of fuel and maintenance).

THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF SAFETY IN GENERAL AVIATION

Safety in all condition

The Elixir Aircraft represents a pioneering era in aviation safety, leveraging cutting-edge technology and detailed engineering to establish a new benchmark for secure and reliable flight training and air travel. With state-of-the-art avionics ensuring precise navigation and collision avoidance, a robust airframe crafted from advanced composite materials, and comprehensive safety redundancies, the Elixir stands as a paragon of resilience and fail-safe design.

Certification

The CS-23 certification attests that Elixir complies with the rules of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
The CS-23 certification guarantees compliance with the highest safety standards in areas: flight behaviour, structure, power plant, avionics and electrical each stage of an aircraft's life, from it's design to its certification and followed by its airworthiness.
FAA Part-23 Pending.

Crash-worthy fuel tank

Its explosion-proof design (pocket and foam) increases safety in the eventuality of a forced landing, with or without a parachute. The Elixir’s fuel tank is designed to reduce tossing. In addition to the foam, it is equipped with anti-return valves, ensuring an homogeneous distribution of fuel and a stable supply in all phases of flight. The Elixir is equipped with a single 94L tank. Forget the selector switch and the need to switch from one tank to the other during flight.

4th generation airframe

The OneShot is a technology that has been used for more than 15 years in competitive sailing. This technique consists of designing and manufacturing complex elements (such as a wing) without structural assemblies. OneShot gives the Elixir unique qualities, both in terms of safety and operating costs.
Fewer assemblies = fewer failures, resulting in less maintenance and lower costs.

Inadvertent Spin Resistant

The Elixir's wing has a progressive profile, the thirds of the wing (from the root) are designed for cruising performance, the last third (up to the wingtip) is particularly effective at low speed. Yhis allows you to permanently keep control of the ailerons.
The wing fences accentuate this phenomenon by limiting the propagation of turbulent airflow to the ailerons.

Airframe parachute

The BRS parachute is included as standard in the Elixir. It is an additional safety, added independently of the certification requirements.

Double-slotted electric flaps

The flap system is simple and reliable, its motor is electric in order to control the speed of the flaps and to avoid anu sudden or involuntary retraction of the flap.

Landing gear

A heavy-duty landing gear

Hard landing? No problem, the oleopneumatic landing gear equiped with Michelin wheels and Beringer brakes offers you a high level of safety and comfort with each landing.

The most economical part-23 aircraft

Unmatched cost-efficiency

With the Elixir, flying on a certified aircraft has never been so accessible. Discover the more economical aircraft, designed for your needs.

OneShot carbon airframe

OneShot reduces the number of parts, and therefore maintenance costs because fewer parts means lower maintenance. Moreover, with the OneShot carbon airframe, there is no maintenance against decaying or corrosion.
Fewer parts, lower maintenance costs. No maintenance for decay or corrosion.

OneShot carbon airframe

The fuel tank is designed to endure to the most brutal impacts, protecting you from explosions. The foam inside acts as an additionnal safety layer and avoids slushing during the flight. Moreover, the OneShot eliminates the need to manage separate fuel tanks. Say goodbye to balance problems and to fuel managing mistakes.
As simpler is often better, both the pitch and the rpm are managed by a single lever. All of that while taking advantage from excellent performances in all corners of the flight domain.

Maintenance by design

The Elixir team designed the Elixir with maintenance in mind. Thus, for each maintenance operation, an access hatch and a straight forward procedure have been designed to reduce the number of maintenance operations.
One half day for 100 hours check.

Unbeatable consumption

The use of unleaded fuel means significant savings compared to the 100LL, with no lead pollution and no 50h visit.

One aircraft for all missions

Unmatched versatility

From Initial to Advanced training and to travel, the Elixir is the aircraft you need.
Initial training at 100kts, economical cruise at 125kts, high rate of climb: 800 to 1,300 ft/min.

Full glass cockpit

Discover the Elixir Full Glass Cockpit. With its streamlined dashboard for improved ergonomics. Thanks to this cockpit, the workload is reduced and the visual circuit is quicker.

Luggage compartment

Easy to access, located behind the seats, up to 25kg – 55.11lbs. Let’s travel wherever you want to.

Sit and pedal adjustement

The Elixir offers vertical and longitudinal seat adjustment, with electric longitudinal rudder adjustment. Ideal to accommodate all morphologies, from 1.50m to 2.05m (4,9ft to 6.7ft).

Greener aviation

Lowered environmental footprint

With lower CO2 emissions and less noise thanks to its propeller (…), the Elixir has been designed to meet the new environmental challenges.

Modern engine

Elixir Aircraft offers a certified aircraft with up to 70% less CO2 emissions (compared to the consumption of single-engine piston engines worldwide). With its Rotax 912iS (100HP), the Elixir uses unleaded gasoline that is less harmful to the environment and consumes only between 10 and 15L/h (2.63 – 3.95 US gal/h).

4th generation airframe

The Elixir has a Reduced weight due to carbon fiber and simplified design, so less power is required. Less power required means less consumption, so less pollution.

Drag reduction

The drag reduction of the Elixir is made with a more aerodynamic surface designed on CATIA and made possible thanks to OneShot carbon.
