AGRICULTURAL is the name … aerial spraying is the game.
Features:
- Tank located under the aircraft, easily removable to restore to a basic configuration of a microlight
- Equipped with aerial survey systems
- Passenger seat allows aerial spray training
PRESENTATION OF AERIAL SPRAYING CONSTRAINTS AND CONDITIONS
Aerial spraying conditions depend on the wind
In general, without any wind:
- Microlight speed during spraying : 100 to 130 km/h
- Spraying method : for better results, we recommend Ultra Low Volume (ULV) spraying
- Volume (ideally) : 5L per hectare
- Tank capacity : 150L
- Pressure regulator required
The 150L tank is located at the aircraft’s centre of gravity so it doesn’t alter the balance once the tank is empty, there’s also a drain plug to empty and clean the tank.
Spraying kit:
- 150L aerodynamic tank, located under the aircraft
- 4 cycle pump and its assy + spare mechanical seal, located outside on the right strut
- Stainless steel ramp with Technoma nozzles (from 24 to 30)
- Quick dump with dual supply (1/2 and 1/4)
- Technoma electrovalve
- Pressure gauge
- Armored hoses
- Calibrating pad from 3 to 20 litres/hectare
Build Kit:
- 80% built kits: fuselage, wings, flaps, ailerons, vertical stabilizer, elevator and horizontal stabilizer come assembled
- Plans and instructions included
- Excluded: Engine, propellers, beringer kits, parachute, radios / transponders, and instruments.
