The pilot is seated in an open framework suspended beneath a fabric-covered wing on which the [[Piston engine|engine]] (adapted from a [[snowmobile]]) and [[pusher configuration|pusher propeller]] are also mounted. Early Cobras ('''Model A''') had [[Spoiler (aeronautics)|spoilers]] for roll control, while the '''Model B''' had traditional full three-axis control using [[aileron]]s. A two-seat [[Trainer (aircraft)|training version]], known as the '''King Cobra''' was also available.<ref name="Cliche">Cliche, Andre: ''Ultralight Aircraft Shopper's Guide'' 8th Edition, page E-11.
