The company was the leading manufacturer of paragliders and paramotors in Italy and at one time was poised to be the leading manufacturer in Europe.[1] The Diavolo was introduced about 2004 and production ended when the company went out of business in 2007.[2]
The Diavolo was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category and the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules for two-seat trainers. It features a parachute-style wing, two-seats-in-tandem accommodation, tricycle landing gear and a single 250NaN0 Simonini Racing srl engine in pusher configuration. The fuel tank is located under the rear seat, which elevates the seat for better visibility.[1]
The aircraft carriage is built from a combination of bolted aluminium and 4130 steel tubing. In flight steering is accomplished via foot pedals that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw. On the ground the aircraft has lever-controlled nosewheel steering. The main landing gear incorporates spring rod suspension, with steel cable bracing.[1]
