Design and development

The Coden features a single main rotor, a two-seats-in tandem enclosed cockpit with a windshield, tricycle landing gear with wheel pants, plus a tail caster and a modified turbocharged four-cylinder, liquid and air-cooled, four stroke 120 hp (89 kW) Rotax 912 engine in pusher configuration. [1] [2]

The aircraft fuselage has an unusual multi-faceted design, based on the boxfish. The design allows the mounting of additional baggage and special mission equipment and incorporates patented main landing gear. The aircraft has a typical empty weight of 265 kg (584 lb) and a gross weight of 500 kg (1,102 lb), giving a useful load of 235 kg (518 lb). [1] [2]

As of 2015 a prototype was reported to have been completed and certification flight testing was expected to begin. [1]
