Aero 1000 Bush Cat
The Aero 1000 HIGH OUTPUT (HO) 4-stroke delivers 39.5 Horse Power. Weighing in at approx 80 lbs, you won’t find a lighter, more powerful aviation-grade FUEL INJECTED 4-Stroke engine. Depending on configuration, the Aero 1000 is light enough to be FAR Part 103 compliant (No Pilot License Required).
With THREE powerhouse engines to choose from (Aero 1000 High Output, The EOS Quattro, or Cors-Air Black Bull), The Bush Cat has become one of the most sought-after aircraft in our lineup.

Introducing The Aero 1000 HIGH OUTPUT
The POWER Behind The Aero 1000 Bush Cat
We’ve squeezed every drop of power out of this Swiss-made phenomenon – making it one of the most desirable engines in the world of light sport aircraft. Through recent tech breakthroughs, the engine has become lighter, more durable, and more powerful than ever thought possible. The 2026 Aero 1000 HIGH OUTPUT is available as a stand-alone, on our Bush Cat Trike, or on our Popular Bush Dawg PPG Quad!

HARDER, BETTER, FASTER, STRONGER:
The 2026 Aero 1000, (affectionately known as “The Blue Head”), is a HIGH-OUTPUT, precision-built, single-cylinder four-stroke engine with a clutch, water-cooling, and electronic fuel-injection. It also has some very impressive specifications. With only a gallon of fuel spent per hour, this is the ultimate cross-country machine! With a max payload of 800 lbs, it can accommodate just about anyone. HIGH-OUTPUT means better climb with heavier payloads, at higher elevations.

The latest HIGH-OUTPUT version of the Aero 1000 has 10% more HP (39.5hp). This high-output design is “extremely economical on fuel.” Pilots can enjoy hours of flight, on a single tank of gas, with the extraordinary reliability of a 4-stroke.
SOUNDS GOOD?
Upon starting the engine, pilots will notice that it has a great sound to it. Very smooth, with a robust 4-stroke rumble. This is much different from a typical 2-stroke aircraft. As Mike Robinson stated: “Most 2-stroke engines sound like a weed-eater! This baby sounds like an actual aircraft engine!”
PUTTING THE “POWER” BACK INTO “POWERED HANG GLIDING”:
In this sport, power-to-weight ratio is extremely important. Not just for performance, but for legal reasons. Powered Hang Gliders (and Paramotors) have to be under a certain weight to qualify as a non-licensed sport. Aircraft manufacturers (like BlackHawk) seek to squeeze every last drop of power out of their engines. In the case of the Aero 1000 HO, they did just that. “The standard Aero 1000 has so much potential that we pushed forward with the HIGH-OUTPUT design” said Robinson. “The 2026 High-Output configuration, or “The Bush Cat” as we call it, is simply the finest 4-stroke Powered Hang Glider on the market right now. And not just the engine. From the wing to the Alaskan Tundra tires, this is the ultimate Trike package.”
