Part 103 eligibility
Manufacturer states both Cloudster and Zing can be built to meet FAR Part 103; FAQ notes engines under ~60 lb (emphasis ~42 lb) for Part 103 empty-weight path. Actual eligibility depends on the finished aircraft meeting 14 CFR Part 103 limits (not independently verified here). Separate from Zing.
