The unique truss frame design is built of 1/4" thick aluminum plates for extreme strength and durability. It is very light and has been load tested to 20 G's. Simply put, it is the strongest light frame on the market.
|
The single mast design provides unobstructed visibility, ease of set up, enhanced overall handling and improved safety. The mast also has a lot of flex which dampens shocks from turbulence, rough landings and moreover, it allows the glider to yaw in relation to the trike.
|
The sturdy wheels are small for reduced drag and weight and the shocks are made of the same bungee shock system used on larger trikes. We also offer a larger wheel option for unimproved runways.
|
All the controls are mounted on the right side of the seat. This design feels totally normal to any general aviation pilot making the transition to a weight shift aircraft much easier and safer.
|
The ergonomic seat is extremely well cushioned and is fully adjustable for maximum comfort.
|
For ease of transport, the trike fits in the back of a full size pick-up. No hanger space required!
