Unknown hours, machine does not have an hour meter.
Always ran perfect, tons of power 65hp I think. Full throttle and you are heading for the sun.
Flies at 30mph, Add power and you climb, reduce and you decend. If engine quits you will glide down at a reasonable rate but always have a landing spot in mind. More altitude is better.
Training is a must, it won"t cost as much as your funeral or hospital bills......
2 seats with nice shoulder harness
10 gallon fuel tank which gives about 2 hours of flight time.
Electric and pull start.
Big high flotation tires, rear suspension to help cushion hard landings.
Nosewheel steering but no brakes. (don"t need em)
EGT and CHT and coolant temp guage as well as tachometer.
Aircraft has no N number and is not registered.
THIS IS A PROJECT AND NEEDS A FEW THINGS.
I bought this a couple years ago and have enjoyed flying it for 20 hours or so.On my last attempted takeoff I somehow got the chute strings sucked into the prop.
Best I can find is these were sold as kits but are no longer sold.
I never even got rolling, no damage to the aircraft itself besides prop destroyed, minor dent on prop cage tube, 1 bridle damaged and a few broken strings on the chute.
Prop is 700 new, bridle is 75 I think but this one could be repaired, chute restring will be 500 I was told by parachute rigger. Parts sold at Bear Perkins
This will fit in a short box pickup truck.
