Introducing the Premium Power Paragliding wing the .PARAWING. (Special Made for Power Paragliding)

Certifications: AFNOR Standard, Sizes: S-M-L-XL-Tandem

The Parawing has been designed around the highly successful URRACO SP. This wing had already gained an excellent reputation with Power-Paragliding processionals, and so Trekking set out to build on this. With the addition of a new set of risers, with an effective trim system, The greatest possible variety of launch, landing and flight situations can be handled with the Parawing. It is easy to launch “flat field” and has no “sticking point” allowing the wing to rise easily overhead. The climb rate is excellent on the slow trim setting, allowing shorter fields, with obstacles to be easily cleared. Into wind penetration is excellent on medium to fast trim or speed bar, and slow flight characteristics are good, allowing precision flight close to the ground and easy landings. The profile of the parawing gives really excellent pitch stability, damping well throttle variations, and is well suited to novice pilots. The Parawing Is rated AFNOR standard, in standard trim, and as such makes a good and well  proven free flying wing, for pilots who want to do both.  Into wind penetration is excellent on medium to fast trim or speed bar, and slow flight characteristics are good, allowing precision flight close to the ground and easy landings.  To facilitate the hard use that Power-Paragliding Pilots subject their wings to, the Parawing is constructed from Heavy duty Materials. The 2.3 Superaramid lower lines are rated at over 200 kg per line.  Porcher Marine Mylar coated polyester is used along the leading edge,to prevent premature porosity and keep launching easy, and Carrington 1080 is used for the sail.

THRUST

(New special Paramotor Wing from APCO)

 

We are glad to announce the debut of the newest addition to our range – THRUST – specially designed, purpose built paramotor wing.

 

The wing recently completed certification test flights and load tests, so it is fully approved for AFNOR/CEN Standard Class, both for free flight and paramotor use.

 

A number of prototypes have been flown by some of our main paramotor dealers and professional paramotor test pilots for over 6 months and they have managed to put in a good number of hours test flying, confirming the qualities of THRUST.

The unanimous opinion is that this is the wing they were waiting for:

 

Certification – AFNOR/CEN Standard for free flying in all 3 sizes with standard p/g risers

Load Test for total takeoff weight in paramotor configuration (pilot + paramotor) as per table below (for example XL size certified to 180 kg.)

 

We are confident that THRUST has all the ingredients for instant success, and will be your paramotor wing of choice.

 

  • Launch - spotless - no matter wind or no wind, cross or tail
  • Ground Handling – THRUST positions itself over head with no effort and just hovers there even in the slightest wind with no sign of collapse, waiting for the pilot to be ready to accelerate into the air
  • In the air the wing acceleration is smooth, and THRUST willingly responds to the engine’s thrust
  • Handling - direct, precise and effortless
  • Flying - awesome
  • Safety – impeccable
  • Landing – piece of cake!
  • Riser – with accelerator and trim (for paramotor version), featuring 2 different levels of hook-in points enabling the THRUST to be fitted to any frame and capable of huge safe, speed range thanks to APCO’s exclusive HIT valves (well over 50km/h)
  • Speed valves (APCO’s exclusive HIT valves) are standard (making accelerated flight smooth and safe), as well as using APCO original double coated siliconised cloth and heavy SuperAramid lines, backed up by our 3 Year/250 hour warranty

 

Out of gas – THRUST is well suited to free flying too and can be supplied with paragliding risers on request.

Materials

The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements. Different cloth is used for the top, bottom and ribs due to their different functions. The lines are made of superaramid covered with a polyester sheath for protection against UV, wear and abrasion. The bottom section of the brake lines is made of polyester because of its better mechanical properties. The karabiners that attach the lines to the risers are made of stainless steel.

DFS PPC Dual

MK IV

Apco has released the all new wing for PPC - the Powerwing MK IV, representing a third generation in rectangular wing design (form Apco). It is a logical evolution of the previous MK II design which was well accepted by PPC pilots. MK IV has even better handling and stability with a more coordinated turn and improved rigidity in the air, making flying more comfortable and reasuring. The wing still has the classic rectangular look and retains all the parameters and features of previous Apco powerwings. Every pilot stepping aboard will immediately feel at home, having the extra reasuring feeling of MK IV. Apco's Powerwings are the only PPC wings available on the market today wich is approved by world aviation standards. Apco's Powerwing was tested by ACPULS (AFNOR) in France, and passed both the shock and static strenght load tests! 
Competition Results:
1998 - Apco PW 500 was Grand Champion in the US National NAPPF Competition, piloted by Mike Harmening. 1999 - Apco PW 550 was Grand Champion in the US National NAPPF Competition, piloted by Butch Mood. 1999 - Apco PW 550 was Engine out Competition Winner Piloted by Butch Mood
