The aircraft is named for the French community of Médoc.
Design and development
The Médoc features a cantilever low wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.
The aircraft is made from wood with its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. Its {{convert|7.50|m|ft|1|abbr=on}} span wing has an area of {{convert|9.30|m2|sqft|abbr=on}} and mounts flaps. Standard engines recommended are {{convert|60|kW|hp|0|abbr=on}}-class Volkswagen air-cooled engines, including the {{convert|60|kW|hp|0|abbr=on}} Limbach L2000 four-stroke powerplant.
Almost thirty years after its introduction the aircraft was redesigned and lightened, gaining slotted flaps to reduce stall speed.
