The fuselage is constructed of welded aluminum tubing. The cantilever main wing is capable of rotating 90 degrees for storage without removal from the fuselage. The 40 hp engine uses a Valley Engineering Series Three PSRU. Aircraft are sold with a Ballistic Recovery Systems parachute installation. After about 20 aircraft were built the production was terminated. The Backyard Flyer can be configured as a conventional or tricycle gear aircraft, with a covered or open fuselage.
