The Lightning LS-1 is constructed entirely of aircraft grade components. Composite components are produced using aviation epoxies through internationally accepted quality control programs. All welded and machined components are built by aircraft welders with over 30 years experience in the industry. There is AN hardware throughout, Matco wheels and brakes, and components from companies like Mcfarlane Aviation, and Aircraft Windshields round out the top quality materials.
The Lightning LS-1 is designed and built around Jabiru’s powerful 3300 aircraft engine. With a displacement of over 200 cubic inches and a direct drive crank, this little beauty has over 120 hp on tap for performance rarely matched in a light sport aircraft.
