1. GENERAL INFORMATION 

 

1.1 Trike 

 
The ANT-70 trike is a one seat weight shift controlled nanolight trike. It is a light weight modification of 

the ANT trike and designed to comply with sub 70kg aviation regulations. The regulations allow hang 

glider pilots to fly sub 70kg aircraft on wheels with a simple powered endorsement, which means there is 

no need to do a full ultralight licence. 
It is fully complies with the concept of maximum portability – it can be folded up to fit in the back of 

many cars. The wing is light and once packed can easily be carried on car roof racks.  

There is

 Octagon 190 

(2 stroke, 27 hp) 

engine to power the trike.

 

The base is attached to the wing by way of a hang bracket which allows the free movement of the trike 

in pitch and roll by which control is affected.  

The trike is equipped with adjustable pedals to allow for various size pilots.
