Just looked at Toxo website a little more carefully and I feel some
suspicious. They quote "maximum 230mph, stall at 40mph with Jabiru 3300
120hp" And there's no weight information at the website. Maximum and
stall speeds ratio almost 6:1? Tooooo good to be true.


Depends on what they mean by maximum. A ratio of 6:1 for max cruise
over stall would be pretty magical. 4:1 is more like it for a good
homebuilt and few spam cans attain 3:1. However, if they are talking
about Vne, then 6:1 might not be so unreasonable.
