Building Affordable High Quality Performance Aircraft
and Experimental Amateur Built Kits
 Three years ago the Manta RST Wing revolutionized the Trike World with its superior performance and handling.The average pilot could now fly all day long comfortably in various wind and thermal conditions and enjoy doing it! The Manta evolution continues with the 2009 Manta "H" RST , now sporting more double surface the bottom end performance is even better, lower stall speed, higher lift, improved power off glide. We also introduced the Orca 12 RST in 2009, its an 80% double surface speed Wing that can only be described as a Manta "H" on steroids! Fast and smooth in BIG AIR! Manta H RST's and Orca RST's are now flying the World over mounted to practically every Trike, if its time to replace your Wing upgrade to a Manta H RST or Orca 12 RST. All Manta H RST and Orca 12 RST two seat Wings are load tested and built to ASTM standards, are topless with folding struts and can be transported while attached to the Trike.
