The Corsario complies with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules. It features a strut-braced parasol wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit, retractable conventional landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration. The landing gear is manually retracted. The aircraft fuselage and hull are made from composites. The Mark 5 version of the Corsario offered two alternative wings. An all-composite wing of 10.3 m (33.8 ft) span could be ordered with two 25 litres (5.5 imp gal; 6.6 US gal) fuel tanks fitted behind the seats in the fuselage or an aluminum tubing and aircraft fabric wing of similar span was available with two 35 litres (7.7 imp gal; 9.2 US gal) wing mounted fuel tanks. Standard engines available from the factory were the 64 hp (48 kW) Rotax 582 or 74 hp (55 kW) Rotax 618 two-strokes or the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL four-stroke powerplant.
