Unfortunately, it's made in the Czech Republic and will be discontinued soon. However, if 20 people get together and put down a $100 deposit, I can build a carbon-fiber wing and get it back in production.

Thanks, Marque :)

(it's a joke)
 
Interesting. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like a Rocket. Something got lost in the translation.

Wonder if the speed slope windshield is an option?:D
 
I wonder how much trouble it would have been to do it correctly vs what they did.
 
Hey, it's a homebuilt... People are allowed to make modifications... :)

Looks like fun, but I think the RV-9 model is closer in appearance to my -6. Maybe I could put the tapered wing from the EVO kit on the -9 model...

Click to expand...

Canopy: wrong
Landing Gear: wrong
Lower Cowl: wrong

can't see the rest well enough to diss it further.:D
 
Yes it missed the mark on a few items, as pointed out by Randy. However the good news is that it does not look like and RV8 :)
 
I like the line "ARF" almost ready to fly. Hey . . . . that is where I have been for several years! :D
