Stits planned to deliver 100 kits to the German market for homebuilding. [2] Examples have been completed in the United States and in Europe. The SA-5 is a mid-wing, tricycle landing gear design with folding wings. The aircraft was intended to be towed by a vehicle by the (lowered) tail on its main gear with wings folded along its sides.
The aircraft is a single place, single engine gull-wing design with retractable conventional landing gear. The F4U was the second completed aircraft in the W.A.R. series, with the first example displayed at the EAA airshow in 1975. The aircraft featured folding wings. [3]
The aircraft replaces the Spyder's two-stroke engine with a Yuneec Power Drive 20 20 kW (27 hp) electric motor and two 28 lb (13 kg) Lithium polymer battery packs which provide a 40-minute endurance. The aircraft is intended to be developed into a commercially available kit and forecast to be available for under US$25,000.
Folding wings were a factory option. Standard engine is the 50 hp (37 kW) Rotax 503 or 64 hp (48 kW) Rotax 582 as an option. [1] [2] [3] Phantom I Single seat ultralight aircraft with struts in place of cable-bracing. Standard engine is the 50 hp (37 kW) Rotax 503 with the 64 hp (48 kW) Rotax 582 as an option.

A folding wing is a wing configuration design feature of aircraft to save space and is typical of carrier-based aircraft that operate from the limited deck space of aircraft carriers. The folding allows the aircraft to occupy less space in a confined hangar because the folded wing normally rises over the fuselage decreasing the floor area of ...
The Kolb Firefly is an American open cockpit, single seat, high wing, pusher configuration, conventional landing gear-equipped ultralight aircraft that is produced in kit form by New Kolb Aircraft of London, Kentucky and intended for amateur construction. The aircraft was designed in 1995.
The F11 features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit that is 40 in (102 cm) wide, fixed conventional landing gear, or optionally tricycle landing gear, and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] The aircraft is made from wood, with its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric.
The aircraft's recommended engine power range is 60 to 82 hp (45 to 61 kW) and standard engines used include the 82 hp (61 kW) Volkswagen four-stroke powerplant. Construction time from the supplied kit is estimated as 1700–1800 hours. [1] [2] [4] The Cygnet won a design award at the EAA Annual Convention and Fly-In in 1973. [1]
