The company appears to be out of business and production of the design completed.
The Shuttle Quik was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category, including the category's maximum gross weight of 4500NaN0. Each Rossi aircraft was built to order, but a typical Shuttle Quik has a maximum gross weight of 4090NaN0. It features a cable-braced P&M Quik hang glider-style high-wing, weight-shift controls, a two-seats-in-tandem open cockpit with a cockpit fairing, tricycle landing gear with wheel pants and a single engine in pusher configuration.
The aircraft is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its double surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth. Its 81NaN1 span wing is supported by a single tube-type kingpost and uses an "A" frame weight-shift control bar. The powerplant is a four-stroke, 1500NaN0 RM engine or a four-cylinder, air and liquid-cooled, four-stroke, dual-ignition 1000NaN0 Rotax 912ULS engine.
P&M Aviation do not normally supply wings to other manufacturers, but they had a longstanding relationship with Rossi that made them confident to do so in his case.
With the 1500NaN0 RM powerplant, the Shuttle Quik may be the most powerful ultralight trike flown.
