The third design, called the Piggott Military Biplane. It was entered for the 1912 Military Trials at Larkhill as "29" but while being taxied by Parr it was damaged after hitting an obstruction and took no part in the Trials. It was underpowered with its 35hp Anzani 3-cyl radial engine and there is no record of it being flown successfully. It is believed that the Piggott machines were all disposed of in 1912.

The Piggott Biplane No.1 of 1910 was designed by S.C.Parr, the company's engineer, who took his RAeC Aviator's Certificate 20.2.12 at Hendon and tested No.1 there in the same year, apparently without flying successfully. Many of its features were ahead of its time, such as the aluminium structure and hollow blade aluminium contra-rotating pusher propellers of different diameters spaced in tandem with a differential gearing from the 80hp 4-cyl upright in-line water cooled engine. He next designed an enclosed monoplane which was exhibited by Piggott Bros at Olympia in 1911 but, although this left the ground, it too failed to be developed into a successful flyer.
