X-Series Classic
The veteran of the Airborne microlight range
Based on the Edge X base the X-Series Classic has stood the test of time and is a proven reliable and robust aircraft. Powered by the Rotax 582-DCDI engine, the X-Series Classic offers the comfort of the fibre glass fairing, electric start and oil injection as standard features.
It’s smooth aerodynamic lines have been a winner with many of our customers over the years. The fairing offers protection from the elements, the soft sides give you a place to store baggage, and it looks stunning in any of the four available colours.
The X-Series Classic has served customers in various roles; it was used in west Africa for the elephant conservation project and also in Indonesia to help protect the endangered orangutans.
The X-Series Classic utilises the same comfortable seating as all of our models with probably the best back support available on any trike today. The X-Series Classic comes virtually fully optioned with most of the extras you would want flying cross country.
The Airborne X-Series Classic is quality built in accordance with Australian Civil Aviation Authority regulations, that’s our guarantee!

Rotax 582DCDI Engine.
We have been using this engine on our microlights since
the mid 80's. Over time Rotax has made some significant
improvements. The latest blue head version has proven
reliability and plenty of performance for our Outback
and Classic trikes. Many pilot's use these models to
tow hang gliders or banners, the 582 does it with ease. |

the Microair radio which is an optional extra. The dash

to power your GPS etc. |

Now standard on the Classic,
the oil injection takes away the mess of refuelling.
Straight super unleaded fuel in the tank and keep the
oil container shown topped up with two stroke oil, easy! |

The Classic seating is
just that. It provides excellent back support for the
pilot. The passenger sits high (great for instructors).
The passenger also has plenty of head clearance from
the mast. Marine grade fabric is used on the seats to
help withstand the elements. These seats still look
great after many hours of flying. |
