Urgent info needed!

I don’t know hoh old (historical) this plane is but maybe you can help me!

Can someone give me technical info about the Acrosport 1 acrobatic biplane which is available as a building kitt?

I need info about:

Weight of the plane.
max. speed and altitude
wingspan, weight, lenght and height (in meters please )
The year of the first flight of this type.

I know it is not a very popular plane, but I had some great help in the past on this forum, so I hope to succeed again .

Please help me.

Thanks,
J.V.
