1.2 STRUCTURE
The aircraft is a monoplane type, with two side-by-side seats, fitted with a high wing
supported by struts. The wing presents a
"high lift" NACA 650-18 modified airfoil with fixed slats
along the full
wingspanand
Junkers type flaperon (aileron +flap). The airframe structure is a full-
metal one with load-resisting panels. The horizontal tailplane features a simmetric bi-convex airfoil.
The rudder is attached
to
the fixed vertical
fin.
The dorsal fin is fitted
to
improve the directional
stability.
1.3
LANDING GEAR
The aircraft is fitted with a tri-cycle type landing gear. The main landing gear is made by a
single-piece aluminium alloy single-leafleg. The noselanding gear is fitted with a telescopic, elastic
chord shock absorber, and is steerable in order to ease the taxying.
1.4 ENGINE
The engines instalied onboard the aircraft are the
ROTAX 912 ULS or ROTAX 912 UL.
Piease refer to Engine manual for any data and specifications.
W ARNING:
the
instalied engine,
by
its design is
subject
to
sudden
stoppage. Engine stoppage
can
result
in
crash
landings, forced landings
or
no
power
landings.
Such
crash
landings
can
le
ad
to serious bodil y
in
jury
o r de a th. N ever fly
the
aircraft
equipped
with
the
en
gine
at
locations, airspeeds, altitudes,
or
other
circumstances
from
which a successful
no
power
landing
eannot
be made,
after
sudden
engine stoppage.
Aircraft
equipped
with
this engine
must
only fly
in
DAYLIGHT
VFR
conditions.
The
instalied engine is
not
a certificated
aircraft
engine.
It
has
not
received
any
safety
or
durability
testing,
and
conforms to
no
aircraft
standards.
This is for use
in
experimental, uncertificated
aircraft
and
vehicles only
in
which
an
engine failure will
not
compromise safety. User assumes all
risk
of
use
and
acknowledges
by
his use
that
he knows this engine is
subject
to
sudden
stoppage.
1.5
ENGINE CONTROLS
There are two vemier type (push-pull) throttle controls fitted with a frietion adjusting knob.
The mixture control is located near to pilot's side throttle control. The air-box control (Rotax 912
ULS)
is
located near the throttle control: pull for hot air
to
carburators, push for cold air to
carburators (for values oftemperature
to
maintain see chapter 2.3).
The key-operated master switch connects the electrical system to the 12V battery. The whole
electrical system is protected bythermal type re-settable breakers.
The engine can be operating with the master switch
OFF and the breakers OFF since the
ignition system is independent and can be cut-offby switching OFF the two magneto switches only.
With the master switch OFF any electrical instrument and all other electrical devices, electric engine
starter included, won't be operating.
W ARNING: The engine may be started-up with the master switch OFF
if
even one magneto switch
only is
ON, when the propeller is hand rotating or due to windmilling. For safety,
it's
strongly
recommended
to
pull-out the master switch key when the engine is shut-off.
