This new and exciting aircraft will be the ultralight trainer and all around fun machine of the future. We have demanded alot from this design, and it has exceeded our goals in every aspect. At the same time, it is one of the most relaxing and fun aircraft to fly. Excellent control authority, very predictable in flight, and unmatched performance for this type of aircraft.
The Revelation came about when we saw the need for a new and improved two place ultralight type trainer aircraft. We refused to take an old design and try to copy it with a few new improvements. The Revelation started from the basic design of the Genesis, which is a flight proven design. We simplified the building and had Dacron sails made for the wing and tail section. The aircraft weight was reduced by removing the fiberglass enclosure, fabric, and paint. The result was a plane with outstanding performance on a Rotax 503DC, a very reliable and proven powerplant. This aircraft is not a marginal performer with this engine. It will exceed most aircraft of this type that are using larger engines.
Another important item to note, the Revelation is not limited to just the Rotax 503 and you don't have to wonder if it can handle a larger engine. this airframe has been tested over and over again with all Rotax engines and the Subaru EA-81 engine
The beauty of the Revelation is that it can be upgraded to the exciting Genesis at a later date. When we designed the Revelation, one consideration in upgrading was not having a lot of parts that would be wasted. The windscreen is the only item that would have to be replaced when you move up to the Genesis.
Many options are available for the Revelation. You can customize this plane to suit any of your flying or training needs
The Revelation build time is the lowest in the industry! You can actually put this plane together in a weekend. We do all the welding, fabrication, and most of the drilling at the factory. All that is left are the fun items you get to do in your garage!
