1. What are the restrictions on a motorglider vs. LSA?


None, that I am aware of.

2. What are the advantages of motorgliders vs. LSP? ...555#'s more MTOW is
one.


Night flight seems to be allowed, and also, no limit on maximum speeds, or
minimum speeds. Repositionable props would also be allowed, I believe.

If the asinine LSA rule does not get straightened out to allow for
repositioning gear in flight, (for amphibians) it would be a way around
that.

As a possible LS pilot, I have no problem with all of the restrictions of
weight and speed, but I'm not certain I can live with no night flight. If
they will let you sign off for complex airspace, why not also for night
flight?
