The aircraft kit, designed in New Zealand by brothers Lapo and Giovanni Nustrini, uses advanced composite material technology to reduce the complexity of the structure and therefore reduce the time required to complete construction.
The prototype, registered ZK-LLG, took off on its first flight on 6 February 2008. As of October 2022, five aircraft are identified on the New Zealand register and one in the United States.
