"It looks like a hoax" is not a useful comment and has no research to back it up. The poster apparently did not even read the text under the linked video, which says "[T]he FAA has also issued the Maverick a S-LSA aircraft airworthiness certificate."

It is highly unlikely the FAA would issue a S-LSA[1] aircraft airworthiness certificate to a hoax.
