There are 3 kinds of "E-LSA", per 21.191(i).
(1) The "transitioning ultralights"... A person can no longer register a plane in this category
(2) E-LSA built to "consensus standards"... this is the one where a company who produced at least one SLSA, can sell the equivalent plane as an E-LSA. (Such as the RV kit)
(3) SLSAs that are converted to E-LSA.
>I am not sure if there is an update to the rules yet but there was a problem with a S-LSA converted to E-LSA. On such an aircraft owners just couldn't go doing modifications themselves without an A&P sign-off.
That was another screwup from the FAA, and has been corrected already.
Basically, the FAA "forgot" to change part 43.1 to accommodate SLSAs that were converted to ELSA. This has been corrected already.
