Two Families. One Platform.
Every Volozen shares the same carbon-composite airframe. Two seats or four — the engineering underneath is identical. One parts pool. One maintenance philosophy. Zero compromise.
The 4xx
The four-seat platform anchors the Volozen lineup. The 458 is the flagship — loaded with every system we’re engineering into the airframe. The 436 shares the same structure in a streamlined package built for flight school fleets and working pilots who want carbon-composite durability without options they don’t need.
Both share the same wing, fuselage, and landing gear. Both get gull-wing doors that open to 2.05 meters with gas-hydraulic cylinders and seven locking points. Both use the yoke control system — a Kevlar-belt-driven, fully-linear mechanism on a carbon bridge engineered for zero backlash.
What changes between models is configuration, not construction. Same airplane. Different mission loadout.
The 2xx
Same carbon platform, two seats. The 2xx family is where Volozen meets primary training and aerobatics. The airframe supports both stick and yoke configurations — stick for the aerobatic variant, yoke for the trainer — so schools and owners choose the control interface that fits the mission.
Every structural advantage of the four-seat platform carries over. The wing, the landing gear, the BRS parachute system, the gull-wing doors, the fuel management — all shared with the 4xx. The lighter two-seat configuration means the same engineering goes further.
What Every Volozen Shares
Regardless of model, every aircraft rolls out of Balloszoeg with the same core engineering.
Carbon-Composite Airframe
Multi-axial carbon fiber — not woven — laid up via resin infusion. The complete wing weighs 115 kg including flaps, ailerons, and landing gear support structure. Fuselage skin runs 2.35 kg per square meter. Tolerances held to 0.01 mm on CNC-machined molds.
Gull-Wing Doors
Top-hinged with gas-hydraulic cylinders. Seven locking points per door. Opens to 2.05 meters. Single motor per door for powered operation. 2 kg per door panel. Remote entry — phone or token triggers steps, unlocks doors, switches on lights.
Landing Gear
Fixed gear with gas struts and adjustable dampening. Ten inches of deflection travel. Tested to 100,000 cycles and 20,000 landing-fatigue cycles at 3.8 g vertical load with a 1.875 safety factor. Built to absorb student landings for years. Electric retractable entry steps.
Fuel System
Composite fuel tanks — 3.8 kg each, 60 liters, no welding or rivets, adhesive-bonded only, three internal baffles. Passed 2× FAR 23 pressure testing. Automatic fuel management with hall sensors, mechanical backup, LED display, and auto tank switching every 10 minutes. Platform supports 4 to 6 tanks (200–300 L total).
BRS Parachute
Structural BRS container weighing 1.5 kg. Kevlar belt channel allows a full chute replacement in about five minutes — no airframe teardown, no multi-week shop visit. A fraction of the cost and time of comparable systems.
Avionics & Electronics
Custom-designed electronics throughout — dimmers, LED controllers, switch panels, wing electronics box rated IP65. Everything is plug-in and modular. Dual-flash synchronized strobe lights. Starlink antenna mounted under the dashboard. 3.3 kW alternator.
Volozen aircraft are currently under construction. Specifications are evolving as engineering and testing progress. No performance claims, pricing, or delivery timelines have been announced.
