The **DAC RangeR** is a Dutch [amateur-built aircraft](/source/Amateur-built_aircraft), that was designed and produced by the [Dutch Aeroplane Company](/source/Dutch_Aeroplane_Company) (DAC), of [Dordrecht](/source/Dordrecht). When it was available the aircraft was supplied as a kit for amateur construction.[1][2]

## Design and development

The RangeR is a development of the [Lucas Dieselis](/source/Lucas_Dieselis) and features a cantilever [low-wing](/source/Low-wing), a two-seats-in-[side-by-side configuration](/source/Side-by-side_configuration) enclosed cockpit under a [bubble canopy](/source/Bubble_canopy), fixed [tricycle landing gear](/source/Tricycle_landing_gear) and a single engine in [tractor configuration](/source/Tractor_configuration).[1][2]

The aircraft is made from composite sandwiches. Its 9.75 m (32.0 ft) span wing has an area of 10.24 m2 (110.2 sq ft) and [flaps](/source/Flap_(aircraft)). The standard powerplant available is the 95 hp (71 kW) [DAC YDT 1.7 litre](/source/DAC_YDT_1.7_litre) [diesel engine](/source/Diesel_engine), developed by the airframe designers and based upon an [Isuzu](/source/Isuzu) design.[1][2]

By 2015 the aircraft had gone through a redesign, with an enlarged cockpit and a new wing design by [Martin Holloman](/source/Martin_Holloman) added, but by the end of 2015 the company website was taken down and the company seemed to be out of business.[2][3]
