XT-912 Outback
Takes you where you want to go
If you are looking for a rugged microlight that can handle extra rough or sandy terrain then take a look at the XT-912 Outback. The instrument binnacle makes for easy access for the pilot, perfect for aero towing where the pilot is in and out of the aircraft between tows. The XT-912 Outback is available with 3 wings (slow to fast) - the Merlin, the Cruze or the Streak-3. The Merlin is a slow single surface wing perfect for aero towing - slow enough to handle tandem hang gliders and fast enough for performance hang gliders and ultralight sailplanes. The Merlin is also perfect for float flying enabling the pilot to leave the water faster.
The Cruze or Streak-3 wing turn the XT-912 Outback into a cross country aircraft making it the perfect Outback tourer and allowing the pilot a broader range of landing options, and also making it suitable for stock mustering and fence line inspections.
Powered by the Rotax 912 80HP engine and with optional dual rear disc brakes the XT-912 Outback has more than enough power for normal and towing flight with exceptional stopping power. State of the art digital instrumentation is standard with the Skydat GX2. It features full engine and flight management with fuel flow and accumulated fuel usage in an easy to read glass panel.

The Bolly 3 blade propeller
a standard for the XT's runs smoothly and quetly and
has excellent performance. The Duratuff version with
the toughened leading edge is a must for shale or stony
airstrips. There is no need for prop tape with the Duratuff
version. Note: Even the Duratuff option can be damaged
by stones in certain circumstanses, a prop deflection
net a worthwhile option for shale strips. |

The mast capture allows
the mast to be folded independently of the engine. The
means the trike base can be trailered with the mast
in the down position. This is a standard featere on
all models in the XT range. The fuel tank holds 70 liters
of petrol and couple with the 912 rotax four stroke
engine gives the pilot a phenominal range. See the spec
sheet. |

Fully upholstered custom
tweed seating is standard on your XT Outback. Seating
as with all of our models is comfortable for both pilot
and passenger. We have made the XT seat a little bigger
for more comfort. Back support for the pilot is essential
and ours is perfect for those long flights, and works
equally as well whether or not a passenger is flying
with you. Inertia reel shoulder harnesses are included
for the pilot and passenger. |
