They said it’s too complex. That this kind of compressor geometry can’t be machined easily in India. But here it is — done on 5-axis, no shortcuts, no compromises. It’s not just a part. It’s capability. Built brick by brick, chip by chip — with Indian hands, on Indian machines. We’re not talking about it. We’re building it. #DGPropulsion #ManufacturingisLOVE

Not every day is a smooth test day. Our 500kg test stand—with brakes on all four wheels—decided to take off while the kN device was only at 60% throttle. Luckily, our failsafe tie-down strap did its job and prevented a mishap. Everyone’s safe, but one thing’s clear—this thing is seriously powerful. Time to double down on safety.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! Can’t stop looking at this — took us a long time to get here. Yes, some have done it before. And that’s great. But progress isn’t about who did it first — it’s about how many can do it now. This technology shouldn’t stay locked in labs. It should be in workshops, colleges, and hands of builders across the country. The more people get access, the more we build. That’s how we move forward — together. #MadeInIndia #JetEngines #Manufacturing #DeepTech

Our manufacturers are the unsung legends of new India. Some of them are just as passionate and relentless as we are — working day in, day out to get every part, every detail right. It’s inspiring to build with people who believe just as deeply. #MadeInIndia #Manufacturing #DGPropulsion #PS - Compressor Diffuser being machined

Reaching the KILO-N! We’ve successfully test-run our 100kg (1 kN) engine using the same engine controller. This big boy makes same thrust at idle as 40kg at full throttle. My hands still shaking with the adrenaline. Just needs a bit of startup tuning and a BIGGER fuel pump to hit perfection. Wishing you and your loved ones a Happy (almost) New Year! PS- 40 kg engine to scale

Nothing fancy. Just some jet engine parts being made right here in India. What makes it special? Our suppliers care just as much as we do. Same passion. Same madness. That’s how you build things that last. #JetEngines #Manufacturing #MadeInIndia #DGPropulsion

To celebrate the New Year and the successful test of our 100kg engine, we decided to have some fun with its smaller sibling, the DG J40. Naturally, we strapped it to a bicycle. What could go wrong? Stage 1: Idle thrust, went straight—smooth and easy start. Stage 2: Took a U-turn for another straight run—feeling confident. Stage 3: Full throttle—bike rockets forward, brakes fail, and I almost hit a car. Stage 4: Reduced throttle, managed to dodge the car (somehow). Stage 5: Shut it down, praying the leftover brakes would stop me. Lesson: Even the DG J40 delivers more thrust than you’d expect on a bike. Here's to a thrilling New Year!

Camera Mishap: Today's test run took an unexpected turn—the camera got sucked into the jet wash and took off before the engine did.🥲 Might need a pre-flight checklist for the camera next time.
