Performance & Handling Features

Optimized Manoeuvrability: Features improved braking efficiency with reduced control pressure, making turns more direct and lighter with less travel.

Enhanced Stability: High pitch stability and an aerodynamic profile reduce the transmission of wing movements to the passenger, ensuring a smoother flight even in turbulence.

Improved Launch & Landing: Characteristics include progressive inflation and immediate load take-up for easier take-offs, alongside improved speed retention for safer landings.

Advanced Technologies:
Ear Lock System (ELS): A standard feature that allows pilots to lock and unlock big ears at two different positions without constant physical effort.

Drag Reduction Structure (DRS): Mini-ribs are integrated directly into the trailing edge to create a cleaner profile and protect seams from wear.

Nitinol Reinforcements: Uses a nickel-titanium alloy in the profile to maintain shape and improve durability against packing and unpacking.

Materials & Build Quality
The wing uses a strategic material mix to balance longevity with weight:

Upper Surface: Robust Dokdo 40 and 36 g fabric.

Lower Surface: Lightweight Dokdo 32 g fabric.

Lines: All lines are sheathed to enhance durability for high-frequency professional use.
