FM301 Shrew - a great trike that was designed by excellent instructors and top pilots of the ultra-light national teams from the Czech Republic and France. The main goal was to create a trike suitable for different occasions - competition flying, training in flying schools or just for daily flying and trips. The result is an innovative and elegant machine with great flying characteristics.
The trike is all-composite, produced in negative moulds and reinforced by sandwich ribs. This ensures really light weight and high strength at the same time. The attractive design, perfect aerodynamic properties together with low centre of gravity (absolutely necessary for competition flying) - makes FM301 Shrew unique.
It has two tandem seats, upholstered by the best quality leather, which is used in automotive industry and proved abrasion resistance. Complete seat is possibly taken off easily and you will be surprised by absolutely unmatched big space for luggage, flying overalls, camping equipment etc. under the seat. All things are safety stored inside, so there is no risk of their release during the flight.
Landing gear is stable and durable, main landing gear is from composite material, front gear is made of steel. Front wheel is equipped with brake or all wheels can include brakes as an option. Fuel tank is located in the back side of trike and contains visual fuel level indicator.
Spacious carbon instrument panel provides enough place for more than only standard avionics. The rear part of trike is reserved for engine installation. Access to the engine and propeller is therefore easy, facilitating installation, daily pre-flight checks as well as possible service. The trike can be equipped by ballistic rescue system.
