If you don't an engine start with a flat aircraft battery will not be
possible as you cannot hand crank a Rotax.

Rear C of G with a monowheel is helpful with ground handling. With a rear
mounted battery I can only get the aircraft out of trim if I have full
baggage, full fuel and no passenger (not a likely scenario). If this was the
case it would be possible to strap a bag on the passenger seat.
