About the Remos GX
Aircraft overview
The Remos GX is a German-built, two-seat light sport aircraft developed by Remos AG as the successor to the earlier Remos G-3. Introduced in the late 2000s, it is a composite, high-wing aircraft aimed at private flying, flight training, and economical cross-country use under the U.S. Light Sport Aircraft category. The GX matters in the used market because it combines modern composite construction, good visibility, low operating costs, and a practical cabin layout while remaining eligible for sport pilot operation in the United States.
Performance & specifications
Typical Remos GX performance is centered on the 100 hp Rotax 912 ULS four-cylinder engine, a widely supported powerplant in the light sport segment. Cruise speeds are commonly in the range of about 105 to 115 knots, depending on propeller, weight, rigging, and equipment. Maximum takeoff weight is 1,320 lb in the U.S. LSA configuration, with useful load varying by individual aircraft and installed options. Published range is commonly several hundred nautical miles with reserves, making the GX suitable for regional trips as well as local flying. Service ceiling is generally quoted around the low-to-mid teens in thousands of feet, consistent with Rotax-powered LSA aircraft.
Cabin & avionics
The Remos GX seats two side by side in a high-wing cabin with large doors and broad outward visibility. The aircraft’s composite structure and relatively wide cabin for the class make it more refined than many tube-and-fabric light sport designs. Many examples were delivered with a ballistic recovery parachute system, though installed equipment should be verified by serial number and logbook. Avionics vary substantially across the fleet: typical panels may include Dynon EFIS/EMS displays, Garmin portable GPS units, Garmin SL-series radios, GTX-series transponders, or later ADS-B upgrades. The Remos GX was not normally associated with Garmin Perspective or factory G1000 installations.
Buying & value
Used Remos GX buyers should review Rotax maintenance history, gearbox and rubber component replacement status, parachute repack dates if installed, composite repair records, weight-and-balance data, and compliance with applicable service bulletins. Wing-folding hardware, canopy and door condition, landing gear attachments, brake condition, and avionics legality for intended airspace are also important inspection points. Common market differences include analog versus glass-panel aircraft, parachute-equipped examples, ADS-B upgrades, propeller type, and interior condition. In the used aircraft market, the Remos GX generally sits above basic entry-level LSAs and below newer, more extensively equipped premium light sport aircraft, valued for efficiency, visibility, and Rotax support rather than high payload or instrument capability.
