Model Variations

 

Maverick - Ultimate Roadable, All-Terrain, Aerial Vehicle  (URATAV)

o Propeller- and wheel-drive has full capability; flight, roadable, and off-road.  This is the ultimate Maverick.

 

Maverick - High-Performance Aerial Vehicle  (HPAV)

o Propeller-drive only; reduces vehicle weight by approximately 100 pounds (45kg) for greater useful load in flight.

o The HPAV is fully ground-capable, but limited to propeller drive in ground operations and is intended for operations where flight is of greatest utility and ground use is ancillary.

 

Maverick - High-Performance, Roadable, All-Terrain Vehicle  (HPRATV)  

o Ground-drive only; this vehicle is designed for high-performance on- and off-road.  This model can be retrofitted for flight capability at a later date.

 

Maverick - Xtreme Roadable Vehicle (XTRV)   

o The Extreme Performance Roadable Maverick; at under 1000 pounds and more than 300hp has  perhaps the lowest weight-to-horsepower ratio of any road-legal car available to the public.

 

 

 

 

 

 

FAA CERTIFICATIONS

 

 On September 28, 2010, the Maverick was issued a Special - Light Sport Aircraft (S-LSA) Airworthiness Certificate by the FAA Orlando Manufacturing Inspection District Office.  This was a prerequisite to the Maverick being offered as an Experimental - Light Sport Aircraft (E-LSA).  In mid-2011, the FAA granted a gross weight exemption for the Maverick to be issued a Special Airworthiness Certificate weighing up to 1,430 pounds gross weight.  (FAA Exemption No. 10229.)

 The Maverick can also be certificated at an Experimental Amateur-Built aircraft (E-AB), and if flown by a private pilot, there would be no weight limit.

 

HIGHWAY CERTIFICATIONS

 

 Highway certification falls under several state and federal governmental agencies.  Generally, if a state permits a particular vehicle to be licensed, it is approved by reciprocal agreement to be operated in all states.  The Maverick may qualify for state licensing under a number of different categories, depending on those available (ie, “kit car,” “assembled from parts,” “farm vehicle,” etc.).

 A number of Mavericks has already been licensed in Florida, and may be driven on any public road in the US.
