The aircraft is made from composites. Its 10.68 m (35.0 ft) span wing employs an NN-1817 airfoil, has an area of 10.24 m2 (110.2 sq ft) and employs carbon fibre flaperons. The twin 35 litres (7.7 imp gal; 9.2 US gal) fuel tanks are located behind the seats. A ballistic parachute is available. The controls include a single, centrally-mounted centre stick and electric trim. The standard engine is the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL four-stroke powerplant.

The JK-05L was later developed into the Ekolot KR-030 Topaz.
