Notice! The information contained in this document is for reference and information only. 

The pilot is the final and only responsible party for the safe operation of this aircraft. 

 

 

- 7 - 

The  pilotage  of    the  airplane  is  duplicated,  arranged  classically.  Flowing    elevator                    

is controlled by the rod, direction indicator by wires. Ailerons and lifting flaps are controlled 

by rods.  

The  wing  is  rectangle  all composite  with main  and  helpful longeron  from  glassy  laminate, 

The dust-cover is sandwiched. Lifting flaps are made into two-positions.  

Flowing  elevator is also composite, it is supplied with aggravating tab, and through the tab 

is  also  provided  longitudinal  trim  of  the  airplane.  The  conception  of  the  flowing  elevator 

contributes  to  the  low  aerodynamic  drag  of  the  airplane.  Producer  of  the  fuselage  is  the 

company TL Ultralight. 

 
1.2.2. Fuel system 

The fuel system constitutes by the integrated composite fuel tank in the fuselage. It is fitted 

out  with  fuel  meter,  distribution,  closing  cock,  filter  and  mechanical  fuel  pump.  These  all 

belong  to  the  engine  types  912  and  912s.  At  engine  914  Turbo  the  supply  is  ensured 

electrically.  

The  fuel tank  is equipped  with lockable  lid placed  on  the  front  right  side  of the  fuselage. 

The producer of the fuel system is also the company TL Ultralight. 

 

1.2.3. Propeller 

It is possible to use stationary and adjustable propeller. The description of the propeller is 

provided with your airplane and is included in the instruction for assembly and maintenance 

of the propeller which is a part of the delivery.  

 
1.2.4. Engine 

Most used engines are types Rotax 912, 912S and 914, which ensure the airplane excellent 

dynamic  and  flying  properties.  Engines  Rotax  912,  912S  and  914  are  four-stroke  four-

cylinder engines the type boxer. The cylinder head is cooled by the refrigerating liquid and 

the cylinders are cooled down by air.  

There is a reductor at the engine, the engine has two carburettors.  Detail information are 

enclosed in the instruction for using the engine. 

 

ATTENTION! 

None  of  the  enclosed  engines  are certificated  as  a  flying  engines.  Even  though  

maximum attention is paid during  the procedure of the engine, misfire of  the 

engine can occur at any time. The only pilot is responsible for the consequences. 
The obligation of the pilot which is written down in the rule UL1 is to fly at all 

conditions the way to be able to glide and land safely to preselected  area in case 

of misfire of the engine.
