Sinus ultralight motorglider combines a true sense of a motorlider with unprecedented efficiency during powered and long-range cruise flight. With the Sinus you can take-off and land on very short runways, fly long distance cross-country and have fun gliding... all in the same aircraft!



Sinus' sleek lines and fully composite construction with a 15-meter wing span, which provide for a glide ratio touching 1:30 will convince also the more demanding pilot in you. Being equipped with high-tech features such as flaperons, airbrakes and variable-pitch propeller enables the Sinus to excel at everything you put her through. She is easy to handle both in the air and on the ground and can be had in both tricycle or tail dragger undercarriage configuration. Sinus comes in two variants, the 503 and 912 with corresponding Rotax two- and four- stroke engines.

Fast cross country flights to destinations 1000 km and further away doing more than 200 km/h (110 kts) are a reality with Sinus, even while burning around 10 liters of automotive fuel (mogas) or avgas per hour. Unbeatable efficiency! When the glider pilot in you wakes up, you can simply switch off the engine, feather the propeller and fly like an eagle, playfully taking advantage of rising air columns and soar into the sky using nature's own powers...

Sinus' comfortable cockpit has a side-by-side seating arrangement with all the controls reachable to both pilots. The pedals, seat and headrest can be adjusted to suit your body size in just seconds. The large, ergonomically shaped, instrument panel has enough room to fit all the bits and you would wish to have beside the multifunction digital flight display, which monitors all flight- and engine parameters and comes standard with the aircraft. Full dual controls and straight-forward handling make the Sinus a fantastic training aircraft as well – also for glider pilots.

Excellent power-off flight characteristics together with a Kevlar® & Lexan® encased cockpit and a dedicated parachute rescue system make the Sinus ultralight motorglider one of the safest aircraft on the market. More than 200 aircraft of the Sinus/Virus family are now flying on all six continents of the World, being subjected to the most extreme temperatures, altitude and humidity and they have performed with an impeccable safety record.

Also, did you know that the Sinus ultralight motorglider claimed the World Champion title at World Air Games 2001 in the category of two-seat ultralight aircraft?

Our products are all known for being virtually maintenance free. Highest technologies, including honeycomb techniques, which we use to build composites and best quality metal alloys, including Titanium and Magnesium, which are used on parts of the aircraft, ensure that the aircraft with last a lifetime in a like-new condition. And if you do not intend to fly for a while, you can disassemble the Sinus in only 15 minutes – all the controls are self-fitting, making this task as care-free as possible.

The Sinus ultralight motorglider truly is an excellent package, which will satisfy your every desire - making use of short runways easy, cross-country flights super-safe & efficient and of course there is gliding... everyone who has experienced gliding will agree it is the best and purest way of flight!
