Design
Clean-sheet design program creating better dynamic stability
New airfoil series developed for increased control and lower drag
Computational fluid dynamics including dynamic stability using USM3D Navier-Stokes.
Finite element analysis completed. CFR-title 14, subpart 23 using AGATE design allowables.
Safety and Performance
Fast deploying whole-plane parachute system as an option
200 KTAS @10,000 ft. with fixed gear, excellent utility, and an LSA stall speed
