Re: Please help identify this ultralight

Looks like an early Quicksilver MX. Does it have ailerons or spoilerons?

I think it's a Quicksilver too. I still own a old MX. I will take a look and see what looks similar. Looking at the stick, front wheels and horizontal stabilizer they all look pretty familiar.

Re: Please help identify this ultralight

Parts of it look Quicksilver MX.... seat, stick and most of the trike assembly. Peddles and ailerons are throwing me off. Maybe this started out as an MX then someone modified/added the ailerons or this is a knockoff/copycat version of a MX.

i have a old mx right next to it. some things look the same but not. the ailerons use a push pull cables. i was told it was bought at oshkosh back in the late 80s or early 90s from the company
