Surface X 200EX Vectoring Surface Drive

A New Approach to Marine Propulsion Control

Surface X 200EX is Angle X Inc.'s patented vectoring surface-drive propulsion system.

The current physical TRL-5 prototype is designed for the 60–150 HP class and combines high-angle steering, adjustable propeller position and Angle X's patented articulated drivetrain technology in a compact transom-mounted propulsion architecture.

60–150 HP Class • 60° Steering • Shallow-Water Capability

One Drive — Multiple Operating Modes

Surface X is designed to reposition the propeller for different vessel operating conditions.

Surface Mode
The propeller can operate in a surface-piercing position for high-speed operation.

Subsurface Mode
The drive can lower the propeller below the water surface for low-speed maneuvering and reverse operation.

Shallow-Water / Raised Position
The drive can be raised to reduce submerged depth for shallow-water operation, service and storage.

60° Steering

Surface X 200EX is designed with 60 degrees of steering capability, providing a large steering range through the propulsion system.

Patented Angle X Drivetrain

Surface X incorporates Angle X's patented articulated drivetrain technology.

The AX90-90CV drivetrain architecture uses two Angle X X-Joints on the same shaft. When properly phased and operating at equal angles, the two-joint arrangement is designed to provide constant-velocity power transmission as the propulsion system articulates.

Designed for the Next Generation of Marine Platforms

Surface X is being developed for potential applications including:

  • Performance and recreational boats 
  • Commercial vessels 
  • Rescue and response craft 
  • Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs) 
  • Autonomous marine platforms 
  • Shallow-water vessels 
  • Specialty marine applications 

Built — Next Step: On-Water Validation

The Surface X 200EX is a physical functional prototype.

Angle X's next development phase is instrumented on-water testing on a representative 60–150 HP vessel.

Testing is intended to measure:

  • Speed and acceleration 
  • Time to plane 
  • Engine RPM and load 
  • Fuel consumption 
  • Propeller position 
  • Steering and maneuverability 
  • Low-speed control 
  • Reverse performance 
  • Shallow-water operation 
  • Temperature and vibration 
  • Reliability and endurance 

Performance Claims Will Follow the Data

Angle X is developing Surface X with the objective of improving propulsion control, vessel integration and operating efficiency.

Efficiency, drag reduction, fuel savings, range improvement and other performance benefits have not yet been established through instrumented on-water testing.

Angle X intends to publish performance results as the technology progresses through validation.
