A variant of the Personal Flight Sky-Bike, the Sky-Bike Trike adds a three-wheeled carriage to the Sky-Bike's seat pack, to turn the paramotor into a powered parachute. The three-wheeled frame carriage attaches in minutes, with a few ball-lock pins.[1]
The aircraft was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules, including the category's maximum empty weight of 2540NaN0. The aircraft has a standard empty weight of 800NaN0. It features a 374square feet parachute-style wing, single-place accommodation, tricycle landing gear and a single 220NaN0 Zenoah G-25 engine in pusher configuration.[1]
The aircraft carriage is built from a combination of bolted and welded aluminium tubing. In flight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw. The main landing gear incorporates spring rod suspension. The aircraft has a typical empty weight of 80lb and a gross weight of 450lb, giving a useful load of 370lb. With full fuel of the payload for the pilot and baggage is 352lb.[1]
