The KitFox Lite was first introduced in early
1998 at Sun N Fun in Lakeland Florida. It can be built as a
true ultralight, which complies with the U.S. Part 103
regulations.
The KitFox Lite is at taildragger, featuring standard three
axis controls, and flaperons, with the
center mounted stick and left hand throttle.
In kit form it takes between 200 and 300
hours to build, requiring no special tooling or knowledge. |
