The aircraft was supplied as a kit for amateur construction or as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.

The Nordic VII was designed to comply with the Canadian ultralight rules.

The standard engines supplied were 90 to 100 hp (67 to 75 kW) Subaru EA four-stroke powerplants.

The wing has slightly greater span than the Nordic VI, but less area, giving the Nordic VII a 5 mph (8.0 km/h) higher stall speed and a lower rate of climb, but a faster cruise speed.
