Technoflug Piccolo

The pusher configuration engine is mounted behind the cockpit and above the tail boom.

The propeller is a three-bladed design which folds by aerodynamic drag for soaring flight, extending by centrifugal effect on engine start.

The landing gear is of tricycle configuration and features optional wheel pants to reduce drag.

The 13.3 m (43.6 ft) span wing is strut-braced and gives the aircraft a 23:1 glide ratio at 70 km/h (43 mph).
