help Flylight Dragonfly FAQ
What exactly is the Flylight Dragonfly?
It is a British single-seat ultralight trike designed by Ben Ashman and built by Flylight Airsports in Northamptonshire. Its first flight was in 2007, with series production beginning in 2008.
Is the Dragonfly a two-seat microlight or a single-seat aircraft?
The Dragonfly is a single-seat design, so it is intended for one pilot rather than a passenger. That places it in the ultralight-trike and UK SSDR context, not the two-seat touring-aircraft class.
Which aviation rules was the Flylight Dragonfly designed around?
The design was intended to fit the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category, the UK's Single-Seat De-Regulation rules, and the US FAR 103 ultralight framework. Flylight supplied it as a complete ready-to-fly aircraft.
Did Flylight make an electric version of the Dragonfly?
Flylight experimented with an electric derivative called the E-Dragon in 2011. The company also listed the Motorfloater as a related Dragonfly variant, but the E-Dragon was a distinct experimental model.
