NEW P&M QuikR
Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2008 10:10 am
Fantatsic news P&M finally have BCAR section S approval on their new Topless QuikR wing. This wing will bolt straight onto any GT450 with a 912S motor.
The wing can also now be folded without removal from the trike. Less hangar space needed!!
The topless QuikR is the fastest and most advanced weightshift today with a 100MPH cruise and slow 40MPH stall. With a 450kg maximum takeoff weight and tested to +6 and -3gm the wing has been rig tested for pitch stability. The quick rig and de-rig facility helps to use as little hangar space as possible and in as little as 5 minutes. The QuikR complies with BCAR Section S issue 4 which is the toughest airworthiness standard in the world.
The QuikR is a no-nonsense high-speed touring aircraft ideal for eating up the miles with a hands-off trim range of 65MPH - 100MPH using the unique electric trimmer as first used on the original Quik. Now with a strut-braced topless wing, distinctive winglets, and slightly increased wing area of 11.43 Sq m.
The Quik just got quicker!
