Interesting facts about the American Champion Xtreme Decathlon
✈ American Champion builds the Xtreme Decathlon in Burlington, Wisconsin, as the high-performance 8KCAB variant with a 210 hp Lycoming AEIO-390 engine.
✈ The Xtreme uses an MT constant-speed propeller with a 76 in diameter and longer main gear legs to provide ground clearance during aggressive aerobatics.
✈ The aircraft is fully aerobatic with +6 g and −5 g limits, an inverted fuel and oil system, and a structure designed for repeated aerobatic training and competition.

✈ The tailplane uses a new airfoil section with about 10 percent more area, which improves pitch authority in vertical lines and during recoveries.
