PRODUCT INFORMATION
The APCO Thrust is one of the longest standing wings in our range. Thrust is a beginner / intermediate classic (non-reflex) wing, which is simple to use, safe and easy to progress with. It is universally liked and has withstood the test of time throughout the evolution of paramotor wings.
The Thrust V continues the legacy of the Thrust, but is a completely new wing – updated with latest technology available!
- FAR ® – Flow Aligned Ribs – Thrust V is the first model to incorporate this feature ! It is the correct way to position the ribs of the glider – simply explained the tips will generate more lift! This additional lift improves performance and more importantly, the safety and stability of the wing.
- APP ® – shark nose profile allows higher maximum speed while retaining a more constant internal pressure – the canopy is rigid, boosting confidence to novice pilots.
Butt holes 2 – as the name suggests, these holes will easily allow release of any sand or debris collected inside the canopy.
