A monowing using weight shift and rudder control. The separate rudder is all flying and there are no ailerons, spoilers or wing warping to achieve roll. Construction is of aluminum tubing covered with dacron on the wings and tail surfaces. Power is a Yamaha mounted in pusher position forward of the wing. A 2:1 reduction unit turns a two-blade, wooden Ritz propeller. Fuel is carried in a plastic tank mounted above the wing. LANDING GEAR: Tricycle type shock mounted with spring action and a bicycle squeeze-type brake. The main and nose wheels are 16 inches in diameter.
