Nah! - still looks like an AeroVee mount with the red adapter rails.
My Legacy has the original AeroVee mount - the bolts supplied with the adapter rails are for the latest B - they don't fit the A. I had to make interference fit plugs for the holes (which don't align with my Sonex supplied mount) & redrill off centre,for the correct size bolt hole. Can't understand why the mount was not made to a precise dimension.
Now that Sonex recognise Rotax they should come up with a specific mount as you say could be a Ring or hybrid.
