The company's chief designer, Aki Suokas, previously designed several successful sailplanes and light aircraft, including the Eiri-Avion PIK-20, Valmet PIK-23 Towmaster and the PIK-27.
By 2022 the company website domain was for sale and it is likely that the company ceased operations in about 2020.{{cite web|url= http://www.flynano.com|title= FlyNano|access-date= 23 April 2022|author= FlyNano|work= flynano.com|year= 2020|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200219185725/http://www.flynano.com/|archive-date= 19 February 2020|url-status= dead}}
