tender [Music] coming into number one on our list of ultra aircraft they give you the biggest bang for their buck is the equal Firefly the Firefly was designed to be illegal ultra light under fire part 103 and in our opinion is one of the safest most fun flying all through our aircraft on the market despite the limits put on by fire 103 the Firefly is a real aircraft with standard 3 axis cable and push-pull tube controls in a pusher configuration with some amazing performance figures the Firefly when powered by a Rotax 447 still meets the weight limit of part 103 but climbs out at nearly 1,000 feet per minute can cruise all day long at 55 miles an hour can take off in less than 150 feet on a calm day and can land in about twice that distance the flyer fly has a very gentle stall in fact with the engine at idle and stick all the way back the plane just goes into a nose high mush it has no tendency to drop a wing and when forced into a stall between 25 and 30 miles per hour it simply drops its notes will re release pressure on the stick or add power and it immediately starts to fly again visibility and the fireflies exceptional the pilot is located in front of the wing giving him or her a 100 360 degree view the Col Firefly is one of the few true alpha aircraft that can be fitted with floats and/or enfant floats and still make the legal weight limit call offers a number of kits to the Builder to cut down a billing times the average builder will take between 150 and 300 hours to complete the various kits no special tools are required of the little an air compressor and air Riveter are recommended the project can be completed in the area of a single car garage but a two-car garage would be more convenient these are just some of the reasons that we have chosen the cold Firefly as the alternative craft and the company that gives you the biggest bang for your buck good [Music] to make sense I sell [Music] [Applause] [Music] coming in at number two on our list of ultra aircraft they give you the biggest bang for the buck is the Quicksilver sprint as far as production of the ultralight aircraft Quicksilver has to rank as the world's number one manufacturer it doesn't matter where you go in the world you were more than likely to find a quick slide there there are a number of reasons for this Quicksilver was the first to start mass production comes with kits on bubble pack boards they were the first to have a very concise and easy-to-follow assembly manual they were the first to come out with a service manual for their aircraft they were the first to produce a training syllabus for the aircraft and they were the first to develop a worldwide distribution network the Quicksilver sprint kit features bolt together aluminum tubing covered in Dacron sail craft it can be built in as little as 80 hours with no prior experience or special tools required when complete the aircraft features true three axis controls with the Ella rods connected the stick and the elevator to the rudder pedals it features the left-handed throttle and a right-handed stick in the past power has been supplied by the Rotax 447 engine with the latest model displayed at some abundance sporting a twist on their 50 horsepower earth engine performance with the 447 has to be seen to believed the Sprint will take off and as little as 50 feet and climb out it'll for a thousand feet per minute Cruise comes in that between 40 and 50 miles per hour and is a little faster when equipped with a nose fairing stall comes in less than 25 miles per hour with no surprises and plenty of warning the standard airframe can easily accommodate floats and fill flows for mono float as well as snow skis parts and service can be obtained worldwide with parts also available from a number of other suppliers the Sprint is very economically priced and it holds its resale value would not be used another advantage of the sprint is that training is generally available because of the amount of two-seat aircraft that Quicksilver is produced and the number of dealers they have worldwide it's relaxed comfortable it's quiet [Applause] or once again it was over by the bolo the floats I play about a very medical more than this perfect capital [Music] [Applause] poor boy [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] coming in at number three on our list of ultra aircrafts they'd give you the biggest bang for your buck is the team minimax I first saw and flew the team minimax at Sun n fun in the early eighties I had come down with my to see Quicksilver MX but with the windy conditions I was grounded as are most of the other ultra light aircraft but not the team minimax here was this little single place all wood construction low wing aircraft taking off and landing in a gusty 15 mile-per-hour wind but most impressive was that for about five minutes stretch the pilot was able to park about 150 feet near and go backwards apply power come forward only to back down and fly backwards again needless to say those were not the kind of conditions I got to fly in next thing early next morning I was invited over to a nearby grass strip airfield to do a little flying in some kamar conditions at the time I weighed about 165 pounds of my five foot six inch frame fit nicely into the cabin minimax was equipped with a little 20 horsepower single cylinder engine and on startup you knew it was a single slender once up and running things smoothed out applying power the craft Junction in the air and about 100 feet climb is an honest 550 feet per minute and straight and level flight with about 5500 rpm gave me 55 miles per hour I approach for landing as instructed at about 45 miles per hour leveled out at about 15 feet LED some airspeed off while she floated down the runway and touched down just above 25 miles an hour steering this little tail there was no problem all I did have a dozen takeoffs and landings and circuits before handing the plane back to its owner I've talked to a number of owners and builders of team minimax aircraft over the years they are a very close-knit group and help each other out over the internet and with numerous blogs and posts all indicate the craft is easy to build from plans and material kits supplied reported building times range from 270 to $500 with most coming in at the lower end no special tools are required to build it many have built it in the garage or even some their basement is one of the most economical all tried aircraft on the market to build and it is available a number of different configurations depending on whether you want to fly it as an ultra or move up into the amateur built experimental category it is also available in the high max which is a high wing aircraft [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music] you [Music] you [Music] coming in at number four on our list of ultra aircraft to give you the biggest bang for your buck is the aventure from arrow adventure in Tavares Florida the Aventura was first introduced at Sun n fun in 1995 it is a single-seat and fibia strut raced high wing tail dragger ultra aircraft in a pusher configuration the Aventura uses bull together anodized aluminum tube and river together construction covered in pre sewn Dacron sailcloth the aluminum fuselage is mated to a center mounted fiberglass halt the avenger' amphibian has a retractable main gear and tail wheel which allow it to land and take off from land or water on its center mounted hull and to wingtip floats controls on the Avenger amphibian our standards Reax stick and rudder control with a semi on stick and left hand throttle retracted the wheels is done by a retractable handle located on the right hand side of craft the avenger' amphibian is powered by the Rotax 447 or in the experimental caddie category with the Rotax 503 or 582 through a two point five eight to one reduction drive cruise with the Rotax 447 is between 55 and 65 miles an hour viene 85 miles an hour stall 27 miles per hour climb rate comes in it between 800 and 1,000 feet per minute as a part 103 ultralight the adventure comes standard with a 5 gallon fuel tank lexan windshield two blade froth and instruments options include brakes electric start elevator trim at 10 or 12 gallon fuel tank streamline stretch shoulder harnesses and a in larger wheels and nickel-plated landing gear and and go and release [Music] [Music] I [Music] Oh [Music] come and get it number five on our list of ultra aircraft and give you the biggest bang for the buck is the era light 103 the arrow light 103 is the single-seat high wing ultra aircraft and a pusher configuration era light 103 was designed in 1997 by Taylor Kerry Raber the aircraft was designed to meet fire 103 and can be flown as an altered vehicle since it weighs less than 254 pounds has a fuel capacity of 5 gallons and a top speed of less than 65 miles per hour as an ultra vehicle and the license is required to fly the craft but training is highly recommended recently the production rights to the air light 103 were purchased by you fly it into land Florida where the craft is now built and sold as a ready to fly ultra aircraft they are light 103 uses bold and river together aluminum construction covered in Dacron sail craft the craft is equipped with rudder pedals a control yoke electric flaps a steerable nose wheel and a left hand throttle to meet the fire part one of three regulations a hearth f33 single cylinder 28 horsepower engine is used with the earth f33 the Earl Lite 103 gets airborne in calm conditions in above 150 feet climbs out at with a 180 pound pilot at between 550 and 600 feet a minute and cruises along at 55 miles per hour with stall stall with flaps comes in between 25 and 26 miles per hours since its introduction error light 1/3 has won numerous awards at a Sun and fun and air venture convention including grand champion ultralight best commercial design and Reserve grand champion ultralight is estimated that between 300 and 400 aircraft are currently flying [Applause] every time [Music] coming in at number 6 on our list of ultra aircraft that give you the biggest bang for your buck is the Hummel ultra Cruiser the ultra Cruiser was designed by Mori Hummel as an all-metal ultralight aircraft in 1998 force lights were in 2000 first aircraft planned sales were in 2001 the ultra Cruiser was designed for first-time kit builders as well as first-time pilots the ultra cruisers needs you to build an even easier aircraft to fly the design can be built terrific plans or is available in kit form the kit includes pre-drilled laser-cut components all parts are formed free bent or welded everything is included to complete the aircraft les the engine prop spinner and instruments the ultra juicer can be built from plans or from kit building times are reported to be reviewing 320 and 600 dollars depending on what kit the builder is building the Hummel ultra Cruiser can be built and flown under fire part 1 or 3 all threat vehicle rules and meets the maximum empty weight of 254 pounds with a standard NT weight of 249 pounds the ultra cruiser features standard 3 access control with a center mounted stick left and it's wrong and rudder pedals it comes in a taildragger configuration with a tri gear option available the ultra cruiser has a cantilevered low wing meaning it has a little no struts with a 25 foot wingspan and 112 square feet of wing area the cabin width is 23 and a half inches wide and is equipped with a windshield for wind and pilot projection but it can be fitted with an enclosure for colder weather conditions the ultra Cruiser is powered by Volkswagen four-stroke engine conversions ranging from 28 to 45 horsepower plans and kits are available from Hummel aviation really in our chips period what to do that all this [Music] yeah what most people I assume mostly is guys are [Music] I [Applause] [Music] coming into number 7 on our list of all turret aircrafts that give you the biggest bang for the year buck is the race air design skylight the skylight design was introduced in 1988 by Ed Fischer who wanted a rag and two ball turret aircraft with that classic Percell wing configuration he also wanted an inexpensive to build open cockpit tail dragger that would appeal to the average handyman the skylight prototype was built tested and debuted to the public at Oshkosh in 1991 where received the grand champion award for ultra lights the skylight is a true part one of three L's right his cute little tail dragger where the attractor mounted engine controls a standard three axis by a senator bonacic rudder pedals and left hand throttle the original prototype was powered by Rotax 277 single cylinder 28 was power two-stroke engine the latest units are flying on the hearth f33 single cylinder 20 horsepower two-stroke engine with a belt reduction drive the skylight uses a 4130 steel welded fuselage the wings are a little inspires utilizing tube and ladder construction with AIDS wing rib attach Cup and rib angle construction for strength and light weight the skylight is covered in standard aircraft covering materials construction time runs from 500 to 700 hours with no special tools or equipment required and the craft can be built in the size of a one car garage currently over 100 skylights have been built and flown and racer designs continues to sell plans and components and supports builders the original prototype prototype skylight now has over 600 hours on it Eadie Fisher owns racer designs and is the designer and sells plans for the skylight micro wrong little bits and several other ultralights and experimental aircraft [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] coming in at number eight on our list of ultralight aircraft that give you the biggest bang for the buck is the Skycycle weight shift right from fly hard trikes mike Tiki is one of the foremost right pilots in the USA Mike is flown over 1,000 hours of hang gliders and over three thousand dollars in ultra trikes Mike works with his wife Tina who is president of the company and the flight school corner coordinator today Mike has piloted over 200 students through their solo check flights his passion for flying trikes is contagious nestled just outside Chattanooga Marian County Airport is the headquarters for fly our trikes where Mike also possesses the Skycycle this soaring trike makes flying with the birds a reality the Skycycle weight-shift rack was designed to comply with the u.s. bar 103 authorized vehicle rules including the category maximum empty weight of 254 pounds the aircraft has a standard m2 weight of 205 pounds in its S model it features a cable braced or optionally struck braced hang glider style high wing weight shift controls a single seat open cockpit with a small cockpit fairing tricycle landing gear and a single engine in a pusher configuration here the aircraft is made from bolt together aluminum tubing with a single service wing covered in background sailcloth it's 32 point nine foot span wing uses an a-frame weight shift control bar the powerplant is a twin cylinder air-cooled two-stroke single ignition 40 horsepower Rotax 447 engine or the twin cylinder in-line two-stroke 32 horsepower Kawasaki 340 with the kawasaki 340 engine the aircraft has an empty weight of 205 pounds and a gross weight of 400 pounds giving a useful load of 195 pounds with full fuel of five US gallons that payload is 165 pounds a number of different wings can be fitted to the basic carriage including the strut brace Northwind maverick 3 and the airborne sting 175 [Music] and the Skycycle part one - it's really go trike flying that pacer - wing coming in though our fates are 13 meter wing rudders from sky cycle 103 little try [Music] coming in at number 9 on our list of all tried aircrafts that give you the biggest bang for your buck is the B Lite Pro cub Lite the pro krub Lite is a really cool aircraft that looks and feels like a nostalgic j-3 cub but flies under the alternate rules vl8 has paid particular attention to visual t visual details like the look of the tail and the sweep of the wing and wing tips it was also paid attention to the technical details the strength and lightness of the structure the aerodynamics of the wing shape the ease of manufacture and kit building the pro cub light can be equipped with an old-fashioned four-stroke engine for that proper mana static sound and great fuel economy but it also works well with a state-of-the-art water-cooled two-stroke engine with a gear reduction drive the B Lite Pro cub light takes operate quickly getting airborne in less than 100 feet and it can land in twice a distance the monster size wheels are Tundra class so the B Lite Pro cub light can handle off road and off airport destinations rear fuselage is manufactured using CNC cut foam with imbedded aluminum or carbon fiber launder ons and supports the resulting structure is surprisingly smooth for safety and ease of assembly the cabin is manufactured from B lights crash proven CNC aluminum structure the wing is menu back heated from the classic spiral ribbed construction or from CNC cut foam all wings feature the rounded corner wing tips when the CNC cut foam is likely for the wing the overall look of the wing is nearly absolutely smooth eliminating drag and providing a stunning visual appearance the turtle deck upper rear fuselage is also CNC cut foam and provides a completely smooth aerodynamic structure complete with nostalgic Halfmoon windows the aircraft has been engineered to support the Pelini for 250 a thirty five horsepower water-cooled engine with a geared reaction flying at some and fun the engine really showed its performance the construction uses a new process which was developed specifically for the aircraft to further decrease weight and allow for more functional aircraft your rear fuselage is constructed of foam and carbon fiber the cabin is all aluminum tail feathers flat bronze and turtleneck are also carbon fiber foam wings include one rounded wing tips cut from CNC foam pilots can choose between the classic rib and the spar construction for a continuous form surface [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] and coming now is like Iran no I'm sorry that's the deal I that took off a few moments earlier that narrow piece Lars reminded me of some of the tendons leaving the brands we've seen I'm distracted here we're gonna see an 11 prepare adrenaline where he grows an airplane to these water quality [Music] coming in at number 10 on our list of ultralight aircraft to give you the biggest bang for the buck is the legal eagle the legal eagle which was designed by Leonard Mulholland is a single-seat high wing on fried aircraft first introduced to the US market at Sun n fun in 1998 the name legally legal eagle came about when Leonard Wade the plane and it came at 10 pounds less than the 254 pound weight limit for the US thus this legal who this eagle is legal became legal eagle the plane is powered by a better happy W engine the legal eagle cruise along at 53 miles per hour stalls at 19 and according to Leonard is really responsible and a pleasure to fly all of the control systems are located outside of the fuselage and the wings are completely sealed to prevent those creepy crawling things from getting in the whole idea of this plane is to be economical you can afford it if you want to do the work the plans consists of cover sheets with the specifications on it 42 sheets of drawing and a materialist Leonard estimates building time to be ill at 6 months the engine is unique and it is not a happy W but rather uses a full case plans for both legal eagle and engine are also available the design features a welded 4130 steel tubing fuselage made into an all wood wing made from spruce the struts and tail surfaces are made from 6061 t6 aluminum tubing the flying surfaces are covered with standard aircraft fabric covering materials the rear fuselage is normally left an open truss structure to save weight and ensure that the craft does not exceed the far 103 maximum speed of 65 miles per hour like the fuselage detailed air landing gear is sprung steel the aircraft has been developed and - sold several variants of the basic design including the XL version for larger pilots and a to co flight trainer and light sport aircraft the legal legal basic model is 244 pounds empty weight when with the 30 horsepower half b/w engine the legal Excel model for larger pilots with a wider and taller seat has a greater wing area and a longer tail comes in at 246 pounds into it there you go a little legal eagle to build that thing for about five or not your laughter believe that we don't so if they've got it figured up there for sellers to for bird and half thousand books like Butler played like that little happy drugs isn't about the gallons an hour back that explained the bill probably water [Music] Lester's news Oh Oh [Music] very realized gradually directly call the fire [Music] [Music] [Music] coming in at number 11 on our list of all three aircraft that give you the biggest bang for your buck is the lowly sport parasol this all would single place part 103 legal 3 our craft was designed by Mike lowly to be a fun flying affordable outright to that end he uses all wood geodetic construction for the fuselage tail and wings the sport parasol is covered using standard aircraft covering materials building times are reported to be between 350 to 500 hours most special tools are required by building the craft as all welded components are supplied a builder can take on this project in the space of a one car garage Mike lowly sells their frame- engine support parcel can be powered by a variety of engines including Rotax Cannon and Kawasaki the sport parasol is a high wind tail dragger but has some of the best handling and performance of any aircraft in its class depending on engine choice the sport parasol can be airborne in as little as 150 feet climb out at over 800 feet per minute and can cruise all day long at 5500 miles per hour at less than 5,000 rpm on a Rotax 447 the lowly sport parasols cabin area is large enough for pilots up to about 225 pounds and has a drop-down side door to allow for ease of access and entry a small wind chill wind shield provides protection from the elements and bugs the sport parasol is a rudder dominated aircraft in that you initiate a turn with the rudder pedals and then follow it with a lure on their craft is a very gentle stall which comes in at around 30 miles per hour it gives plenty of warning into your approaching stall both on the stick and rudder pedals to recover one simply comes forward on the stick or adds power and the planer covers immediately the sport parasol showed no tendency to drop a wing visibility for landing is great when you put it into a slide slip it comes out of the sky like a rock a comfortable approach speed is 55 miles per hour with touchdown coming in at 35 be warned this little angel loves to fly and will float forever when landing especially on a paved runway and a hot day a pilot can land the sport parasol on its mains but my preference is a three-point stalling style landing which gives you instant ground crunch so so I don't have to fight across one with the tail up if you are considering the low sport parasol I would recommend a runway how about 750 feet clear at both ends you can get get it down easily in their area but on what grass with the lightweight aircraft you'll find that brakes are very ineffective for more information as a wwl OE h le com that's wo le calm a lowly Court Marisol on by the legendary 30 fuller the court parasol is a economical quality engine aircraft as well that they from beverage the important are all there making the classic line will handle power plant from 48 to 50 horsepower the simple wooden construction that very short field capability holy sport aerosol will through 60 to 70 miles an hour so be the point two miles an hour and must regain Bible boss Kayla pleased to be here with you at Sun n fun nine and three again welcome the most appalling aviation this year let's show you the and thanks again everyone coming in at number 12 on our list of all tried aircraft they give you the biggest bang for your buck is the Buckeye dragonfly the dragonfly is powered by a 33 horsepower four-stroke high torque engine which revs out to a low 3,500 rpm the engine uses a belt reduction drive and puts out an amazing 265 pounds of thrust this combination of engine reduction Drive and prop is very quiet and burns only one point three gallons of fuel an hour at 2700 rpm giving the plane over three hours applied time with fuel and reserve the unit is available in three wheel and four-wheel models the standard shoot used as a performance designed 360 square foot shoot which is proven to ride very docile handling characteristics the craft uses the center stick for throttle and ground steering pushing the stick left or right turns you in that direction while moving the stick back increases throttle and makes you climb pushing forward decreases throttle for descent the air stirring is accomplished by pushing the foot control bars left and right because the Dragonfly used as a reliable four-stroke engine standard instrumentation is only a tiny tack and our meter the plank the plane is currently being delivered in kit form taking approximately 24 hours to complete the kit are very easy to assemble it is basically two halves a right and left built around the center the three oil units of a six foot wheelbase while the four-wheelers have a four foot front wheel base and a five foot rear wheel base which allows them to fit between the wheel wells of a standard pickup truck with the tailgate closed or in the case of a short bed standard pickup you can leave the tail brake down and the unit still fits buckeye also has another version of the four-wheeler that features big balloon style tires these tires allow takeoffs and landings from soft Beach style sand landing strips for more information visit Buckeye dragonflies calm [Music] [Music]
