The Amax Vixen 105 is an Australian homebuilt aircraft that was designed and produced by Amax Engineering of Donvale, Victoria. When it was available the aircraft was supplied as a kit for amateur construction.[1]

Design and development

The Vixen 105 features a strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cabin with doors, fixed tricycle landing gear or optionally conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.[1]

The aircraft is made from composites. Its 28.50 ft (8.7 m) span wing has optional flaps and a wing area of 128.00 sq ft (11.892 m2). The standard engine used is the 105 hp (78 kW) Subaru EA81 automotive conversion powerplant.[1]

Optional equipment when the kit was supplied by the factory included wing flaps, long range fuel tanks, wheel pants and sprung steel main landing gear.[1]

The Vixen 105 has an empty weight of 500 lb (230 kg) and a gross weight of 1,200 lb (540 kg), giving a useful load of 700 lb (320 kg). With full fuel of 16 U.S. gallons (61 L; 13 imp gal) the payload is 604 lb (274 kg).[1]

The manufacturer estimates the construction time from the supplied kit as 300 hours.[1]
