The Votec 221 is a single seat, low wing monoplane, designed for engines in the power range 90-180 kW (120-240 hp).

It has low aspect ratio straight tapered wings with blunt, almost square tips.

The cockpit, placed over the wing, is covered with a single piece, starboard hinged canopy.

The mainwheels are mounted on curved, sprung cantilever legs and enclosed by long fairings.
