Stratos 714 Specs

The slim and aerodynamic design of Stratos 714 achieves more fuel efficiency compared to conventional business jets. The fuselage is built with sophisticated carbon fiber composite material to increase the strength-to-weight ratio, avoid corrosion, and optimize obstacles during flight.

This business jet has been designed to maintain extensive laminar flow in cruising speeds. It can operate day and night from unprepared runways and grass runways.

The Stratos 714 landing gear is a tricycle undercarriage that can be pulled from being hydraulically driven by a gear switch. It is equipped with one wheel nose wheels and two main wheel legs. The main gear shortens to the wing while the nose wheel turns into the front wheel after takeoff.

Stratos 714 Engine

The Stratos 714 is powered by a single Williams International FJ44-3AP two-shaft turbofan engine with a thrust of 13.5kN. The engine is installed in the rear of the cabin to produce a high thrust-to-weight ratio and minimize fuel consumption and operating costs. The engine has a length of 1.58m and a diameter of 0.58m. The dry weight is 239kg. The time between repairs (TBO) is 4,000 hours.

The FADEC compatible engine is equipped with a one-stage fan with an integral single stage low pressure axial compressor, annular burner and one-stage high pressure, and two-stage low pressure turbine.

Stratos 714 can fly at a maximum speed of 769km / hour. The kiosk speed is 117 km / hour. The maximum range and service ceiling of the aircraft are 2,779 km and 12,500 m respectively. The take-off distance is 600m and the landing distance is 683m.
