The newest team to enter the Aerolight circuit, team Olympus is sponsored by the Olympus Corporation, one of the leading suppliers in both military hardware and consumer electronics. Having already had a long time paramilitary force operating as part of the colony fleet's defensive forces, it took little persuading by the members of Xenith squad to allow them to build a race plane for the upcoming Aerolight Races.

Cardinal Rule is not the most high-tech plane in the race. She's a relatively simple design, relying on finely tuned balance and stability over sophisticated flight control systems. Not the fastest plane in the competition, she makes up for it with the ability to perform quick snap roll actions, and her ability to turn on a dime.
