The company has acquired rights to the V-Prop, an automatic self-powering electronic variable-pitch propeller invented by Thomas Strieker of Silence Aircraft. Stefan Bichlmeyr from Technical Engineering at Hoffmann Propeller has said that the firm is working with Thomas Strieker to redesign the VProp system for bigger engines. As of June 2013 this redesign is in process but not finished yet.[4]
