At the moment we are working on 3 exciting new designs in the M5 series. First, the M5 3-Liner, which is now in the final stages of development. This 3-Line design has an Aspect Ratio of 6.9, a SharkNose Profile, and significant improvements over the M4 in almost every respect; the R&D Team reports that this new design has much nicer handling, with a more precise feel, a better climb, and increased stability in accelerated flight. The feeling, according to Dav Dagault, our chief test pilot, is \u201cDelta-esque, rock solid, with excellent sail cohesion\u201d, and even the standard version is lighter than the M4.<\/p>\n
With Chrigel\u2019s help, we have developed a wing that is designed from the ground up to perform in the world\u2019s toughest adventure race, the X-Alps. The LM5 will be used by a record number of Ozone pilots in the 2013 X-Alps race. We chose this design based on its exceptional stability in turbulent conditions which the X-Alps pilots are forced to fly in. the 3L design is comfortable and easy to launch, even in difficult circumstances, and our current prototypes are exceptionally light!<\/p>\n
After the completion of the 3L designs mentioned above, which is imminent, we will release a 2-Line Mantra M5 as well. This version is aimed at pilots who are looking to transition to the competition class of modern 2L designs. With a slight performance increase and the inherent benefits of a 2L design in flight (rear riser control, increased speed), the M5 2L is the perfect step for pilots looking to move up to the highest level of competition wings.<\/p>\n
Many pilots will now be asking themselves, \u201cWhich M5 is for me?\u201d We think that most M4 pilots will find the 3L best suited to what they need, whilst the most ambitious ones may opt for …read more<\/a> At the moment we are working on 3 exciting new designs in the M5 series.
