Design and development

The Pioneer 200 was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules and US light-sport aircraft rules. It features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] [2]

The aircraft is made from wood. Its 7.30 m (24.0 ft) span wing is rectangular in planform to reduce construction costs. Standard engines available are the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL and 80 hp (60 kW) Jabiru 2200. Kit variants for the United States experimental light-sport market use the Rotax 912 and have a gross weight of 600 kg (1,323 lb). [1] [2]
