Here is the LS8-e neo review carried out by Stefan Langer last year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQFdtseZbBo

Our optimizations include:

• A nose hook will be available as an option on the LS8-e neo and thus offers more comfortable aero towing thanks to better directional stability.
• By moving the FES engine frame we were able to regain the original pedal position of the tried and tested LS8. As a result, we have created the same cockpit space as with all previously known LS8 series and ensure pilots more flight comfort.
• By optimizing the battery/engine hatch cover, we have improved removal and installation with a single latch which needs no tools.
• A change in the automatic propeller brake from the FES ensures a smooth stop and positioning of the drive system, even at low speeds.
• Thanks to a flow-optimized air flow into the nose cone, we were also able to reduce ventilation and cockpit noise.

We are happy to be starting series production of the LS8-e neo this summer and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Are you interested in an LS8-e neo? Then contact us via your local agent NZSoaring Solutions.

We are currently converting an original LS8-t into an LS8-e. This means that in future we can convert every LS8 with an engine box to an LS8-e. Are you interested in retrofitting your LS8? Then contact us.
