Also small bug, but passenger is not visible in cockpit view, even when their weight is entered in weight and balance. Even though its a pretty easy aircraft to figure out, a manual wouldn't hurt either.

It gains speed slowly and therefore fails to lift off the runway.

But:
- The sound does not correspond to a Rotax 582. It is a 2-stroke
- since it is a 2-stroke engine, the RPM does not match. This should be around 6400 RPM at full throttle. With this aircraft then in cruising at about 5500 RPM
- the oil temperature instrument does not exist in a 2-stroke engine
- Cylinder head temperature instrument is also incorrect
(water temperature would be better)
-Flight dynamics unfortunately not correct
Nevertheless, you can cruise a bit through the air with it.
