About the Magnus Fusion 212
Aircraft overview
The Magnus Fusion 212 is a Hungarian built, two seat, all composite light sport aircraft from Magnus Aircraft. It is a low wing design with side by side seating, fixed tricycle landing gear and a central control stick. The type was developed as a modern LSA and advanced trainer, with a structure cleared for aerobatic operation in appropriate configurations. That makes it relevant to buyers who want a used aircraft suited to private touring, flight training and unusual attitude or upset recovery work, rather than a basic circuit trainer only.
Performance & specifications
Typical published figures for the Magnus Fusion 212 include a cruise speed of about 110 to 120 knots, depending on propeller, loading and operating limitations. Range is commonly quoted at around 500 to 600 nautical miles with reserves, while the service ceiling is typically listed near 14,000 feet. Maximum takeoff weight is in the 1,320 lb LSA class, with useful load varying by equipment fit, avionics and parachute installation. Power is normally provided by the 100 hp Rotax 912 ULS or Rotax 912 iS series engine, driving a composite propeller.
Cabin & avionics
The cabin has two seats in a compact but modern side by side layout, with a clear canopy that gives good external visibility for training and maneuvering. Baggage capacity is limited compared with larger certified touring aircraft, so buyers should assess real mission loading carefully. Avionics vary by year and market. Many examples use glass cockpit equipment from Dynon, Garmin or similar light aircraft systems, often paired with a VHF radio, transponder, GPS navigation and engine monitoring. Some aircraft are fitted with a whole aircraft ballistic parachute system.
Buying & value
On the used market, the Magnus Fusion 212 is positioned as a specialist LSA: more capable for sport flying and training than many simpler light sport designs, but less common than mass market models. Buyers should verify the exact regulatory category, aerobatic approval, weight and equipment status for the individual aircraft. Important checks include composite airframe condition, landing gear history, Rotax maintenance records, propeller condition, parachute service life and any hard landing or aerobatic use history. Useful upgrades can include modern EFIS avionics, ADS-B equipment, improved engine monitoring and updated interior trim.
