Welcome to RDD, we’re glad you’re here. We encourage you to click through the site to discover what RDD has to offer to make your aircraft building experience a fun and successful venture that culminates in a work of aviation craftsmanship.

RDD is a premiere aviation Research, Design & Development group with a rich aviation heritage serving the experimental aircraft community. Our goal is to help make your dreams come true by providing technologically advanced aircraft systems and world-class support.

Speed Brakes™ are now available for the Van's RV10 aircraft. RDD’s David McRae headed up the development program on the RV 10 working in concert with Precise Flight, Inc. Drawing on Precise Flight’s vast experience and superior speed brake design the net result is a clean and low cost installation providing excellent performance. “At cruise speeds, speed brake deployment will give you a level decent rate of 1000 feet per minute,” stated McRae. He went on to say, “The RV 10 performance envelope is already very impressive and utilitarian, we have just added a vertical dimension to it.”

The Speed Brakes™ kit is priced at $3,995 and an installation time of about 15 hours. The benefits of Speed Brakes are multiple, such as allowing you to maintain engine power and aircraft maneuvering speed without build-up in speed, reduce engine shock cooling and a number of other tangible benefits.
