PRODUCT QUALITY
All our aircraft are built to high quality standards. Aircraft grade and certified CASA approved alloy, and or chrome molly steel is used on all aircraft where strength, safety and durability is required. We provide certificates with the aircraft. All our aircraft are initially subject to 5 hours of rigorous flight testing to make certain they fly correctly and reliably including in shop weight and stress testing.
Every single aircraft we produce is inspected and signed off by a CASA/RAA approved L4 Chief engineer.
CONSTRUCTION
The fuselage (chassis/main rails) your aircraft is built on is round tube 5 mm thick 6061 high strength alloy.
The cockpit (cabin) is 2.5mm thick mild steel welded and braced for exceptional strength. It’s a little heavier than alloy but will not snap like alloy, which makes it the obvious choice in the event of a roll over situation. We can make it out of chrome moly steel (stronger again) on request.
The wheel axels are made from solid 2024 high strength alloy ¾ inch (19mm) thick to save weight but to also maintain strength. The front 20mm
The main landing wheels fitted are solid machined one piece alloy fitted with maintenance free high speed bearings and ATV tubeless tyres. Even with a flat tyre you can still land safely. The front a strong robust motocross wheel fitted with a pneumatic tyre.
The seats, fuel cell and rear axel, are fixed with aircraft grade documented and certified CASA approved 6061 alloy / 4130N chrome moly tube for strength, durability and reliability.
Most fuel cells are constructed from Tig welded 5051 alloy and feature aviation safety foam and a sump to ensure fuel pickup at all angles.
Nolethane bushes are fitted to reduce engine vibration ensuring a smoother more comfortable flight.
Brakes, all our aircraft come standard with a hydraulic disc brake.
All electrical wiring and accelerator cables are discretely concealed within the fuselage tubing where possible. Ignition switches located with brake lever in easy reach.
Our aircraft are quality finished with polished alloy, chrome and Deluxe - Pearl Effects – Powder coating or your alternative choice.
BEWARE: Your aircraft may have a CASA approval. This does not mean it is built with aviation grade parts and components or CASA approved/certified materials. And the result will only present itself in an incident usually after landing or on take of, you don’t even need to be of the ground to experience a collision. Most incidents occur on the ground, not in the air. SAFETY FIRST.
