About the Kiss 400-582

The Kiss 400-582 is a single-seat, high-wing ultralight aircraft designed by Hungarian engineer László Kiss in the late 1990s as a simple, affordable homebuilt for sport pilots. Built primarily from aluminum tube and fabric, the Kiss features a distinctive open-cockpit layout and tricycle landing gear, powered by a Rotax 582 two-stroke engine producing around 65 horsepower. The design emphasizes ease of construction and low operating costs, with a typical empty weight under 300 pounds and a useful load sufficient for a pilot and minimal baggage.

Its straightforward tube-and-fabric construction makes it accessible to first-time builders, and the aircraft can be assembled in a home workshop with basic tools. The Kiss 400 series gained a modest following in Europe and North America among ultralight enthusiasts seeking an uncomplicated flying experience, though it remains a niche type compared to factory-built light sport aircraft. With a cruise speed around 75 knots and a range of approximately 200 nautical miles, the Kiss is best suited for local recreational flying and short cross-country hops in good weather.
