My compliments to Chris Heintz for "designing the Zenith 701 just for me, all those years ago". It is a perfect fit and is proving to be an amazingly capable aircraft over and over again every time I fly/test it. Unfortunately, I was not able to meet Chris to thank him in person, but he really seemed to design the 701 as an extension to myself and my type of fun flying.
Anyway, there are lots of questions about this new Super701ZR concept, so here is a very brief video comparing the basic size difference between the standard Zenith 701 and this new Super701ZR.
Building on the robust and proven design, the modified Super701ZR will be narrower, shorter, lighter, capable of an even higher angle of attack, and because of these things, hopefully it will be a little more sporty with better overall performance.
The ultimate goal of this design is to be lighter, slower, faster, and even higher performance than the original 701.
Thanks for watching, subscribing, and following.
Stay tuned for updates on this fun project!
