The machine fuselage is built with special aluminum concept 6061-T6 like aviation struts of differents sizes. This fuselage is all bolted with AN aviation bolts and nylon inserted nuts for easy maintenance and inspection.
This machine is built on tree wheels. The nose gear wheel is used as control with pedal combined with the steering cords of the parachute. Turn of maximum 30 degrees to allow the chute to follow. This is not finished. These 3 wheels are assisted by 4 yellow wheels called spiro which protect the machine to tip over in the cross winds at the takeoffs or landings.
These 4 spiro wheels were not invented an aim of landing on sea but considering the desing of this last, they enable you to hold the machine out of water in the event of breakdown of the engine which give you an appreciable safety. If it happen to you remove your belt security before touching water. It will not sink. The 4 spiro will keep the machine on the surface of the water but if the wind push the chute sideway the machine might become upside down; you will be ready to leave the cockpit. If you fly above water put on a life jacket for your security.
