[avgas]

Hi... This is new to the states... Has what i'm looking for, all aluminum, folding wings, tricycle, They offer a builder assist program or 300 hours build time. Anybody look at this airplane and have a strong opion either for or against it? thanks

No opinion, but there appears to be some interesting design modifications from Zenith CH701 lineage. Almost a 701 "Cruzer" with (maybe) actual folding wings, some different materials (arguably better), perhaps some mechano-aero refinements (aileron/flap/tail design). I would like to know more too. Thanks for posting.

Looks awfully Zenith CH-750/801-ish.

I like the all metal design plus folding wing arrangement. Kind of a Zenith Cruzer w/ Kitfox folding wing combination.

We offer builders assist services at our facility. Use our expertise to make your built even shorter. You will still meet the 51% amateur built criteria.
Do you know if this 51% assurance applies to the quickbuild kit?

The CH750 will fold the wings, but takes two people and wasn't designed from the get-go to do it. You can build the CH750 in 300-400 hours
The Kitfox has some of the best one person folding wings I've seen. Build time is a little longer than the Zenith. and the cabin is much smaller.

Looks awfully Zenith CH-750/801-ish.

Has more in common with the Savannah than the 701.

Our HBA member Addicted2climbing has been in contact with this company, he had good things to say so far. I hope he chimes in to this thread.
