It is a Nose-Dragger.   See their web page at Dragger.

As for the model, well, it’s a bit of a hybrid. It started out as a stock nose dragger.  Then…

1.  The handle was extended to better fit under the Ovation’s nose and spinner. 

2.  That shifted the CG so the battery was moved aft for operator comfort. 

3.  The original puny gel-cell was replaced with a Concorde 24V aircraft battery removed from a Cirrus at 85% capacity.  

4.  The tug seemed a tad slow so a motor drive gear with a few more teeth was installed.

5.  Originally it was a single speed - on or off.  A PWM motor speed controller was added so the tug’s speed can go from a slow oozing to a moderate walk   

6.  A 24 volt solar trickle charger takes care of topping off the battery in the hangar which had no 120V Electrical service.  
 

All of the STC and 337 forms are available.  
 

Will deliver for fuel costs.
