The Aviastroitel AC-7M is a Russian mid-wing, T-tailed, two-seats in side-by-side configuration motor glider that was designed by Vladimir Egorovich Fedorov and produced by Aviastroitel, now Glider Air Craft.[1][2][3]

Design and development

Development of the AC-7M was started in 2002, it was first flown in 2005 and by 2006 two prototypes had been completed.[1][3]

The AC-7M is a conventional self-launching sailplane, but is equipped with a more powerful retractable pusher configuration Hirth F30A25A Шаблон:Convert two stroke engine than is normal in these types, allowing it to be also used as a glider tug and as touring motor glider. The aircraft is capable of cruising at Шаблон:Convert for Шаблон:Convert while burning only Шаблон:Convert of fuel.[1][2][3]

The AC-7M uses a two bladed wooden propeller of Шаблон:Convert diameter. The Шаблон:Convert span wing employs a Wortmann FX60-157 airfoil and mounts Fowler flaps. The wings are mounted on the fuselage with a single cam-pin and the ailerons and air brakes hook-up automatically. The fixed landing gear consists of a narrow track pair of rubber-suspended Шаблон:Convert main wheels, a Шаблон:Convert nose wheel and a Шаблон:Convert tail caster. The main wheels incorporate lever-actuated drum brakes. The cockpit can accommodate pilots up to Шаблон:Convert in height. The canopy provides 300° field of view and is jettisonable. Assembly from its trailer takes four people 20 minutes.[1][2][3]

The AC-7M was later developed into the unpowered and redesigned AC-7.[4]
