Construction Wing, tail, control systems

The PUMA uses all metal wing construction. The wing structure, ailerons, flaps, horizontal stabilizer, elevator, and rudder are fabricated from 2024 T3 and 6061 T6 aluminum.

According the Humberto "the PUMA has a metal wing because the craft is being used in the training environment, where the potential for damage is greater. A metal wing is easily repairable, where as a composite wing generally has to be replaced from the factory."

When ordering a kit the customer can order a folding option that allows the wing to be easily folded back by one person, on to the tail section for storage in a one car garage. The standard wings come with a quick disconnect system that allows the wings to be removed, by two people in about 10 minutes.

The 50 liter (13.2 gallon) fuel tanks are located in the wings, with each tank having a fuel drain located in the rear section of the tank. The PUMA also has a third gascalator drain located at the lowest point in the system, directly below the engine.

Fuselage

Like the main landing gear the fuselage is made from certified composite resin, molded under vacuum and cured at high temperature. The PUMA loading factors are +4g -2g and at a max weight of 1157lb. (525kg).
