It features a cable-braced hang glider-style high-wing, weight-shift controls, a two-seats-in-tandem open cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration.

[1] The aircraft is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its single surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth.

Its 36 ft (11.0 m) span wing is supported by a single tube-type kingpost and uses an "A" frame control bar.

[1][3] The standard engine supplied was the twin cylinder, two-stroke, air-cooled 50 hp (37 kW) Rotax 503, with a 5 U.S. gallons (19 L; 4.2 imp gal) fuel tank.

When in production it came with optional dual controls, aero-towing hardware, larger engines and 10 U.S. gallons (38 L; 8.3 imp gal) fuel tank.
