The Stela is a two-seat side-by-side high-wing braced monoplane with a composite structure. It has a fixed tricycle landing gear and can be powered by an 800NaN0 Jabiru 2200 engine or a Rotax 912 or 912S.
The Aeromarmi Stella M1 was a light plane made under license in Mexico by Aeromarmi since 2006. It was powered by a Jabiru 3300 flat six piston engine and a Sensenich series Z propeller. However, the few sales and the elimination of the airworthiness certification by the DGAC forced the Mexican company to stop manufacturing the aircraft in 2010.[1] [2]
