  • Excellent aircraft, if I had one, I wouldn't have any trouble landing into my garage ( maybe with an airbag installed, just in case)

  • A very excellent S.T.O.L. design! designer Chris Heintz must be proud.

  • funny

  • There's the UL260i which looks like a really nice powerplant, I'd be quite tempted to give one of them a go, but it is a fairly new engine and there are not many high hours examples around from which to form a good record of its reliablity. It is cheaper, and lighter than the 912, and produces around about 85hp If I remembe correctly.

  • there is at least one 701 flying with a Rotec radial engine

  • There are no good alternatives to the Rotax 912.  That's why it's the most popular engine choice for a S-LSA.

  • probably a subaru boxer or maybe an old rotary engine (rotary might be too heavy actually). i've heard of subaru engines being put into 701's and 801's before.

  • Regardless the model plane you build you'll need an engine... what are the good alternatives to the Rotax 912S?

  • that's just the airframe. the engine costs another 20,000$ which is a big problem for me. it's enough of an issue to consider building a different plane.

  • 20.000 us dollars

  • could someone give me some prices for a quickbuild plane?

  • Just decided to build one of these! wo hoo! going to take me 5 - 10 years due to money shortage :(
