In this video, we take a closer look at the Magnus Fusion 212, the most refined light sport aircraft in the market today. With its pushrod controls, aerobatic capabilities, and airframe parachute, the Fusion 212 is a game-changer in the LSA world.
Powered by a turbocharged Rotax 915 engine, the Fusion 212 can climb at an impressive rate of 2000ft per minute and cruise at 120 knots with ease. But rumor has it that it can easily hit 140 knots, even with its fixed gear.
The Fusion 212 is also completely customizable, allowing you to equip it with a UL power engine with an inverted oil system or a Rotax 912 for an economy cruiser. The 4-bladed DUC propeller is aggressive yet smooth and efficient, and the cockpit is incredibly comfortable with a somewhat reclined seating position.
If you're looking for a light sport aircraft that's anything but boring, the Magnus Fusion 212 might just be the perfect fit for you. So sit back, relax, and let us take you on a tour of this amazing aircraft.

Impressive LSA but the limits on speed are crazy and you guys were definitely flying abit faster. Nice job and a nice plane for sure.

@thewaterengine Год назад

The 120 kt limit is only at sea level. For example, the 915iS BRS Bristell SLSA flying at ~10k feet will have a true airspeed of 170 miles per hour or 147 knots - The Bristell has a 157 knots Vne. The latest gen of LSA are not your grand pa’s dumpster truck 60s or 70s Cessna with the cigarette ash trays - in terms of aerodynamics, material composition, avionics and engines they are very modern plus Low op costs. Negatives include IFR but prohibited flight into IMC, purchase cost, home built quality can be iffy, useful weight with ~4 hrs fuel is ~500 pd, only 2 seats max, slow cross country, and x wind limits handling (you actually have to have pilot flying skills to land once you get to 15+ knots x wind). Lots of these limits will likely change but that will result in cost increases (e.g., retract constant sp prop Shark and other euro light sports are awesome, but more toward 300k than 200k).

@@flexairz Rarely would I agree with that statement but I gotta say that super light, slippy plane with 141 take off HP is pretty damn adequate... I mean the whole point for it is to be simple and easy to fly. Power can be safer in some instances but there is a reason you are required a high performance clearance by an CFI before taking out something with more than 200hp.

That plane is freaking BEAUTIFUL!!!!❤ If I had a plane this is the paint job I would put on it. The landing gear stays down so you don't got to worry about the landing gear not coming down. Plus if the engine fails you can glide it to the ground. I would only want to fly above land that I could land on in case of engine failure. I plan on dying of natural causes hopefully anyway. Many people have died in plane crashes that would be a crappy way to die.

@lynnkramer1211 4 месяца назад

The gross takeoff weight stated in the video excludes this model from the LSA category which states that 1320 is the max takeoff weight. If the MOSAIC rules go into effect that would change but it has not gone into effect. I may never be approved. Until then, this video jumps the gun. Further 500 lb. useful payload is a pretty skimpy. 2 two hundred lb. passengers leaves only 100 lbs. for fuel and baggage.

@myadventuresinflight 9 месяцев назад

Looks fun, but I'll never give up my Flight Design CTLSi and BRS. The fusion has 40% less fuel capacity, 20% lower fuel economy and only 40 to 50% of the CTLSi's range. Plus you have to carry about a quart of sunscreen on every flight because that canopy is a big magnifying glass. Low wings are OK but although there are great view of the clouds, the Earth, its beauty and variety is what really makes the high wings stand apart for the passenger.

@dh-flies 4 месяца назад

You can't get sunburned through the canopy... The UV rays are filtered out. I have a 600+ mile range on my Bristell. I carry 32 gallons. And I do very close to the same speeds as this plane, with better fuel economy. And with an 11 to 1 glide ratio, I opted out of the very heavy BRS system. 30-40lbs of something I will most likely never need to use. Hoping the new MOSAIC rules come out soon. Weight and speed restrictions will be lifted and we can fly at night, with our constant speed props... 😁

This engine is not ideal for true aerobatics. It will be fine if you transition through inverted flight but you spend any time inverted, like in formation inverted, its not built for that. There is more to an inverted flying engine than just a dry sump. That turbo needs a sump of its own, oil pickups in the head etc....

Is the speed governed to comply with LSA? I would expect a turbo engine to go much faster like 160 kits TAS at 10000 ft. The 120 kt limit for LSA applies only at sea level.
