A single seat single engined flex wing aircraft with conventional three axis control. Rogallo wing. Undercarriage has three wheels in tricycle formation; no suspension on any wheels. Push right go right nosewheel steer¬ing connected to yaw control. No brakes. Aluminium tube trike unit, without pod. Engine mounted below wing driving pusher propeller.
This experimental machine is an attempt to mate three axis controls to a Rogallo wing. It uses the same power pack as the TR1 MkII trike unit, plus a modified Sabre wing. The trike unit is fixed to the wing structure rather than being sus¬pended from it, and the wing is mounted much lower than the normal hang point of a trike.
No test flights have been carried out on this aircraft by 1982.
