1.1 Introduction
This Operating Handbook is designed to help enable a safe and
successful completion of each flight with the REMOS GX. It provides
you with all necessary information for regular maintenance and
operation of the aircraft. Therefore we recommend that the pilot keep
this Operating Handbook updated with the newest information
available. You can get the latest version of this Handbook from your

1.2 Certification
The REMOS GX was manufactured in accordance with the Light
Sport Aircraft airworthiness standards and does not conform to
standard category airworthiness requirements.
1.3 Continued Airworthiness
Technical publications for continued airworthiness are released on
the REMOS website www.remos.com and they may be downloaded
free of charge.
Bombardier-Rotax releases technical publications on their website
www.flyrotax.com from which they may be downloaded free of
charge. Documentation update for avionics may be downloaded on
www.dynonavionics.com and www.garmin.com.
It is the responsibility of the owner/operator of the aircraft to keep the

2.2 Stalling Speeds at Maximum Takeoff Weight
stall speed with flaps extended VS0 = 42 kts
stall speed with flaps retracted VS1 = 44 kts
2.3 Flap Extended Speed Range
Flaps may be operated and the aircraft may be flown at airspeeds
higher than VFE as long as flap deflection is limited. Following
restrictions apply as a function of airspeed:

With flaps set to any deflection the safe load factor is limited to 2.
2.4 Maximum Maneuvering Speed
maximum maneuvering speed VA= 88 kts
At maneuvering speed one control, i.e. either aileron, or elevator or
rudder control, may deflected until its stop once. Above VA
permissible deflection is reduced, until at never exceed speed VNE
only one third of the deflection is permitted.

G3-8 MA FM 3202 - R02
2 Operating Limitations
Operating Limitations 2 - 4
2.5 Never Exceed Speed
never exceed speed VNE = 134 kts
Due do the reduced density of air at altitude, true airspeed is higher
than calibrated or indicated airspeed. Therefore VNE is limited to
134 kts true airspeed in order to prevent flutter. With increasing
altitude VNE is limited to lower values than indicated by redline
according to the following table.

2.6 Maximum Wind Velocity for Tie-Down
max. wind velocity for tie-down in the open VR= 38 kts
2.7 Crosswind and Wind Limitations
maximum demonstrated cross wind
component for take-off and landing 15 knots
The maximum demonstrated crosswind component is not a
limitation. The pilot may exceed this demonstrated crosswind
component on his or her own discretion. In case the pilot operates
the aircraft in crosswind components higher than demonstrated he or
she shall be aware of the fact that this flight regime has not been
tested. A general wind limitation is not defined for the REMOS GX.
