Design and development

The Bi Trike was designed to comply with the European microlight regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, two-place-in-tandem accommodation and a single Simonini Racing 25 hp (19 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a 2.38:1 ratio reduction drive and a 123 cm (48 in) diameter three-bladed composite propeller. The fuel tank capacity is 10 litres (2.2 imp gal; 2.6 US gal). [1]

As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is accomplished by foot, although an optional wheeled carriage can be employed with this model. Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw. [1]
