Built in Brazil over 10 years by students.
It recently broke Mike Arnolds long standing (20 years) Ar-5 speed record.
The weight class is under 300kg (all up weight at take off).
It is just tiny!
And fast...
360 km/h (at sea level).
Powered by a 80hp Jabiru. (Mike Arnolds AR-5 was powered by a Rotax 582 - 65hp).
Look at the size of the inlets...
And note the placement of the outlets. (In an area of low pressure - that's what I am planning to do with my cowling).
Inspiring stuff.
