The Rainbow Aerotrike is a family of South African two-seat ultralight trikes, made by Rainbow Aircraft of Edenvale, Gauteng and available in kit form for amateur construction or fully assembled.
[1][2][3][4][5][6] The current Aerotrike series comprises two variants of the same basic design, the Scout and Cobra.
Both share the same basic design, including the two-seat carriage frame, suspension, steering and folding inverted "V" mast assembly.
The Scout is equipped minimally, while the Cobra has many options as standard equipment, including a cockpit pod fairing, windshield, instrument panel, saddle bags and wheel pants.
[1] The Aerotrike series were the choice of Mike Blyth for his record long-distance flights.
