The Murphy Maverick which was introduced in 1993 is a smaller, yet different version of the Rebel using many of the same construction materials and techniques. The craft is one of the few that can be flown comfortably on the 503 Rotax engine. The fuselage is all metal, and the wing and tail sections are metal with fabric covering. Two wings are available in lengths of 29' 5" and 32' 5".

The Maverick is a side by side seating two place taildragger, in a tractor configuration. The cabin while comfortable seemed a little tight for two hefty pilots or pilots dressed for winter conditions in Canada.

The factory reports testing to +5.7 and -3.8 G's. Building times reported at just over 1,000 hours.
