| Infos techniques | Moteur : Cuyuna 215 , 20 CV (15 kW). Moteur sur pylône rétractable. The engine, with electric starter for air starting, erects from and retracts into a bay in the forward fuselage by means of electro-hydraulic power. The canard configuration is intended to make the ship virtually stall-proof as the canard stalls before the main wing, causing the ship to pitch nose-down and preventing the main wing from stalling. That, however, does not mean that mishandling cannot cause very high sink rates. The main wing has trailing edge flaps which also operate as spoilers by the leading edge coming above the top surface of the wing when deploying. The unusually efective "spoilflap" trailing edge surfaces provide good glidepath control. | ||||||
| Histoire résumée | Rutan's canard self-launching sailplane attracted much attention when it won the Sailplane Homebuilders Association Design Contest in 1982. Within two months of the aircraft's introduction in 1982, 50 to 60 sets of plans had been sold. In March 2011 there were seven Solitaires registered in the United States, including one in the EAA AirVenture Museum. | ||||||
