Mike, I am glad that after all these sitting in an enclosed aircraft, you are beginning the joys flying a flexwing aircraft.
The Revo designed by Larry Mednick is the Ferrari among tikes.

4:05 Seating arrangement and controls reminds me of "sliding tandem" on the Elementary School playground. Remember how you and a friend would lock together and go down the sliding-board together?

Questions Mike
1. What's its NM range?
2. Its cruseing speed?
3. Altitude ceiling?
4. Max weight take off? Is there a weight limit to the weight of a man/woman u can take while having a full tank of fuel
5. Maintenance costs?

I have been around this triking sport and these types of aircraft since almost the very beginning. I started with a "JetWing" trike which goes a long way back. This trike is designed and manufactured to the very highest standards possible. $120K is not an unreasonable price for this particular type of aircraft. If your flying needs are beyond the scope of this machine's abilities, then I recommend that you seek out other flying options. Most of the comments being made here are reflective of a lack of knowledge and experience with these types of aircraft. Thanks for the review Mike. As always, your aviation related activities are of good content and interest.

Besides the price, Trike is so much fun and safe to fly, as much as you make it.

Isn't the external fuel gauge intended for use when filling, as a precaution against overfilling? Because I can imagine it would be very difficult to lean your head over the side in 50 plus mph of wind and read it. The internal fuel gauge is intended to be used during flight, surely

[scottmajor]

Looks so fun, but way too much at $100k

This thing is a cool toy. Thanks for putting up the video, Mike edit: dude you had to be nervous about going up in this bad boy

[charlesfile]

Thanks, Mike you did an excellent job. Is that located down by Zephyr hills?

[tobiascollonia]

After Watching this video I actually got in contact with Larry And he had a REV 4 sail. Get it . So I got it it’s awesome

[airaction]

$85, 000 dollars for that ? are they having a laugh : )

[thammanoonkamfunt]

Fantastic! very nice aircraft it's good looking

[jrooks]

If you have the opportunity it would be great to see a review of the vashon ranger

[DNModels]

There is this guy on YouTube who flies a yellow one above LA basin and has great vids.
The things that interests me is how come this is LSA? With LSA you can build times toward CPL and of course towards 1500hrs for airlines. If you build time in this it won't do much good.
So how come FAA missed that one?

[leerouse]

What's the takeoff distance and Landing distance? How short take off, how short Landing??

[enriquetyson]

I would like more information on performance... And at 100k can the copit be No sure if I see an advantage at 100k over regular aircraft..😊

[fnfalRhino]

This looks like fun is this expensive to get into how does one do this

[cliftonwarner]

Have you ever done a research on a Europa aircraft

[homertalk]

It's no Bristell. But if you like flying motorcycles it's perfect.

[javierolvera]
