The Pixel was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category, the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules and the German 120 kg class. The aircraft has a standard empty weight of Шаблон:Convert.[1]

The aircraft design features a cable-braced hang glider-style high-wing, weight-shift controls, a single-seat open cockpit without a cockpit fairing, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration.[1]

The powerplant is a single-cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke, single-ignition Шаблон:Convert Polini Thor 250 engine.[1]

The aircraft has an empty weight of Шаблон:Convert and a gross weight of Шаблон:Convert, giving a useful load of Шаблон:Convert. With full fuel of Шаблон:Convert the payload is Шаблон:Convert for pilot and baggage.[1]

A number of different wings can be fitted to the basic carriage, although the purpose-designed iFun 13 is standard.
