Design and development

The aircraft was designed to comply with the US light-sport aircraft rules, although it was never certified in that category. It features a strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] [4]

The aircraft is made from aluminum sheet. Its 10.0 m (32.8 ft) span wing is supported by V-struts and jury struts. Standard engines available were the 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS four-stroke and a 125 hp (93 kW) Continental Motors, Inc. four-stroke powerplant. [1]
