Quad City Challenger II two seat light sport eligible aircraft.

The Challenger 11 can be powered by 447 and 503 Rotax.

The engine sits upside down at the rear of the craft and uses a belt reduction drive system. My preference would be to fly on the 503 Rotax.

With this engine cruise comes in at 65 m.p.h. at 5800 RPM climb rate at gross as a land plane is around 850 feet per minute. Stall with the aid of flaperons 35 m.p.h.

The factory rates an A. Control feel is a little mushy, and requires pilot input to compensate for adverse yaw. Landing gear is another weak point. Great little plane for pilot with limited budget, not recommended for rough field operations, or busy flight schools.
