The aircraft features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit, fixed tricycle landing gear or conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] [2]
The aircraft fuselage is made from welded steel tubing covered in non-structural fibreglass. Its 8.7 m (28.5 ft) span wing is built from 6061-T6 aluminum covered in doped aircraft fabric and fibreglass. Standard engines available are the 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS or the 120 hp (89 kW) Jabiru 3300 four-stroke powerplants. Cockpit access is via gull-winged doors on both sides.
