It features a single, two-bladed Wagtail or 8.40 m (27.6 ft) diameter Averso main rotor with a chord of 21.4 cm (8.4 in) mounted at the top of a tall column.

It has a two-seats-in side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit with forward hinged doors on both sides, tricycle landing gear and a four-cylinder, air and liquid-cooled, four-stroke, dual-ignition turbocharged 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 engine in tractor configuration.

The tractor layout provides better propeller efficiency and less noise, but at the cost of reduced forward cockpit visibility.
