Ultralights And Light Sport Aircraft l Evolution Trikes

Welcome to Ultralight flying. Ever wondered what a bicycle with wings look like? well this is it. Say hello to Evolution Trikes; a company that builds and sells ultralight aircraft like the Rev, Revo and Revolt.

I’m just being introduced to these flying evolution myself and it certainly is very intriguing. From what I’m told, you are legally not required to have a license to fly these, or many ultralight aircraft in the united states. It is recommended that you become licensed or at least get some proper training before you jump in and go flying.

Evolution Trikes currently offer 3 models starting with the Rev, a small engine trike with only 5 gallons of fuel tank on board. It will cruise at 40-45 mph. And You’ll get about 2 hours of flight time with 5 gallons of fuel. Now given the nature (weight and construction) of trikes. Best to fly on calm cool days rather than a windy day.

What I like regarding these guys is the fact that their page on internet has everything you need to know including the price, which is a little bit rare for air trikes makers.

I use to be a ultralight dealer and pioneer back in the late 70's early 80's. One hell of a lot of fun. Had some 300 hours in many types. Start building/flying hang gliders in the early 70's off the sand dunes along lake Michigan.

I wished for years I could fly one of these but definitely out of my financial reach. They look beautiful! 💖

I did a demo in a Revolt at 2018 sun n fun. I’m going in May to pick one up that’s being built for me right now! Can’t wait! I think Amy was mistaken in part of this video though, as far as the weight limits for the Revolt. She said it was 200 pounds in the front seat and 250 in the backseat but it’s actually 250 up front and 300 in the back. She misspoke. I just contacted Larry Mednick and he reassured me it’s 250/300 for the Revolt, and You could even certify it as an ELSA, and modify the Hang point to get it certified for 300 up front!

Fantastic video! I've flown both the REV and the REVO and they're both just a blast to fly!

Would there be anyway someone with one arm could fly one?

[Clayw]

Would be awesome for a big backyard runway

Did you say your factory was in Desert Hills? Where are you folks located?
Your trikes are beautiful and look like they fly very smooth and fast.

Thank you, my esteemed Madam, for your valuable explanations on how to use a glider... but the application on YouTube does not have a translation... into Arabic. For your information, Madam, I made a plane like your glider... with a motorcycle engine since 1999.

This video is better than one covered by "Light sport and ultralight flyer" channel.

How much engine cc and HP please reply

фары нельзя устанавливать выше уровня глаз пилота.
Потому что при попадании ночью в туман, перед глазами будет белая стена.
The headlights must not be installed above the pilot's eye level.
Because if you get into the fog at night, there will be a white wall in front of your eyes.

Great video as always! What kind of jerk can give that a thumbs down? If you are even in VA, come fly PPGs!

[hamedajubida]

Hi sir assamblinge wing only $ how much sir

[stone]

I really like the looks of these...but the questions are 1) How far? 2) How fast? ... then the one you didn't seem to answer...3) How much? Also, where is the flying bike? I know the German company Fresh Breeze makes one called the Flyke, but I was hoping you guys would have one too.
