At Cummings Custom Motorsports, innovation is not just a pursuit—it is a relentless commitment to redefining what is possible. The Astra-1 Hybrid Environmental Craft (HEC) is our latest groundbreaking development, a vehicle engineered to operate seamlessly across land, water, air, and space. This is more than a concept; it is a technological revolution in mobility.
Precision Engineering and Structural Excellence
The Astra-1 is designed with an emphasis on compact efficiency, minimizing size while maximizing operational capabilities. Key structural specifications include:
- Length: 4.2 meters (13.8 feet), significantly reduced from the original 7.5-meter design to improve maneuverability.
- Width: 2.1 meters (6.9 feet) in land mode, extending to 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) in air mode with deployable wings.
- Height: 1.0 meters (3.3 feet) in land mode, expanding to 3.5 meters (8.2 feet) in air mode with landing gear fully deployed.
- Dry Mass: 1,400 kg (3,086 lbs), achieved through advanced titanium-carbon nanotubing composite, providing an unparalleled strength-to-weight ratio.
- Cockpit Design: Inspired by fighter jets, featuring a single-person ergonomic layout with biometric control systems for seamless operation across environments.
