Microlighters

Hi Guys,

Demon came around to Springs to showcase his trike and I took a lot of photos. I'm particular interested in the unique features...I'll point them out as we go to the best of my ability. I hope you enjoy it...

For more questions just ask Demon...

Demon in the trike


The Trike Drawing a crowd


Front Close Up


Rear Close Up


Engine and Engine Scoop


Pylon Full view


Wing attachement, Note the Yellow String at the back, it is a trim to slow the plane down. That string gets pulled in by a electric motor down below the engine in the next picture.


The trim motor pulling the yellow string.


The folding pylon is supported by a gas strut, so make folding down a one person job.


The wingtip outside


The wingtip inside, notice the clip on mechanism.


The wingtip underside


The huge wheel spat, with hydrolic disc brakes, vented and hole drilled.


The Throttle, choke and trim control on the side of the plane


The Cockpit and dash


Dash Closup Left


Dash Closup Center


Dash Closup Right


GPS notice the Max speed, 160MPH, must have been on a high speed dive...


Notice the hole in the Leading Edge of the wing, apparently these blow up and help the wing keep its profile


Demon doing a high speed pass, this trike eats up the sky. The speed is very evident watching from the ground.


That's all I have...

Kind Regards
Rudi

From the GPS the average speed, including taxing, taking off etc, was 72MPH

How does the fast/slow trim work?? Does not look as though it moves the hang point.

looks great, and typical to see all the boys oogling over it. Also, pic 2, shows a fat grin on the Demon's dial. Nice one barry - when do we get to see it.

Sorry I missed you guys I was in the air around Fly Inn but did not hear any of your broadcasts.
She surely looks good brother , Happy poling.
