What People Are Saying

“My airframe wiring is complete and the VPX Pro was a great decision. It saved me a ton of time and allowed me to keep a great mass of wiring very neat under my sub panel.”

Colin Noseworthy, RV-10 Builder/Owner

“One of the reasons I bought the VPX system was the reputation of Chad Jensen, the Vertical Power guru who interfaces between the engineers and us builders...It is great to know that the folks at Astronics/Ballard have such a great product and that Chad is there to stand behind it and to help builders along the way.”

Steve Ashby, Stone Mountain, GA

“We are excited to use the VP-X in the Switchblade...it just makes it easy and makes sense.”

Sam Bousfield, CEO of Samson Motors, Builder of the Switchblade Flying Sports Car

“The VP-X makes a project like the RV-8R go smoothly... I was able to set up the entire aircraft electrical system sitting in the airplane in minutes. You can't beat that kind of flexibility.”

Brian Kelly, RV-8R, Port Orange, FL
