I have been waiting 3 months to fly this airplane. It had been away doing airshows and demo flights but finally it was my turn to get my hands on this beautiful new experimental Sling TSI aircraft.

The Airplane Factory really out did themselves when designing this plane. With a climb rate of over 1500 feet per minute and cruise speeds nearing 150 knots, this sure is a thriller that makes you feel like a little kid. The performance improvements over the Sling 4 is amazing.

That Rotax 915is engine is unbelievable. With a rated horsepower of 141hp, turbo charged and fuel injected and all controlled by a FADEC system. This is true modern technology in an airplane engine and it is clearly expressed in the low fuel burn.

Whether you're doing cross country flights or just the fun flip every now and then, this aircraft will always give you that butterfly feeling.

In this video we go over all the new features of the Sling TSI and how it differs from it's little brothers. I hope you enjoy the video.

What you needed to mention is that the engine is FUEL INJECTED which overcomes the problem with carb icing which has caused so many light aircraft accidents over the years.

Lanes yes. But no Rotax engine ever had magneto's.
Intercooler cool the compressed air from the turbo... its not to keep the engine cool.

$190k-$200k for TSI 5? I wonder if building it ourself’s will bring that costs down considerably? I sure hope so because I want one. I want to cruise at 150 knots burning 6 gallons an hour!!!! Amazing. Even if the initial costs are $140 for a kit build your savings will be in the lower operational costs. Love the looks too!!! I just love the Sling line of aircraft. We were all saddened by the lose of the Sling family members this year. It was a tragedy for the aviation community. Go Pumba!!
