I agree with the above. Thats why I am building a Sonerai IILTS
2004 estimates;
Total build costs 15K flying
Wings fold - take home for winters
Cruise at upper limit of LSA class
- - must be carefull on prop selection to meet LSA rules.
Build as 1 or 2 place


What engine are you going to use?

Do you have pictures, ect.?
Its designed for a VW. BUT I am not all that thrilled with the life span
of them.
I am going to use a Suzuki 1300cc (70 hp) with a belt reduction unit.
I had a Samurai for 14 years with this exact engine in it.
On the freeway its almost full throttle and turning 36- 3800 RPM hour
after hour.
Will be the same RPM in the plane at cruise.
All up engine wt is about 50 lbs LESS than the VW.
I am still welding the fuse so have few pics
