We need your support
Your support is needed – Become part of the Arbalète project!
The Arbalète project owes its progress to the generous support of numerous dedicated individuals, companies, and institutions. Thanks to this valuable assistance, significant milestones have already been achieved: The fuselage of the Arbalète is almost fully completed, including the retractable nose gear and the first installations.
The next step is the completion of the wing. We would also greatly appreciate any form of support in this regard.
How can you support us?
New layout of the main landing gear retraction mechanism
The retraction mechanism of the original aircraft’s main landing gear no longer meets today’s requirements and needs to be redeveloped. For this, we’re looking for bright minds with the courage to innovate!
We’ve already gathered several possible solutions, but they still need thorough review and further development. In particular, we need strong support in the design and calculation of the new mechanism.
Who’s ready to take on this demanding yet fascinating challenge – and actively contribute to the future of our project?

Workshop equipment
In our workshop in Bleienbach, where the wing is being built, we are still missing some machines and tools. Maybe somewhere in a basement or garage there’s a device that’s no longer needed – and could find a second life with us.
We are especially happy about:
-
Disc sander
-
Wood router
-
Band saw
-
Drill press
-
Planer
