APCO Thrust V

Thrust V Introduction

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.

·         Launch – SRS® risers aids Launch, bringing the wing overhead quickly and effortlessly with no overshooting, making forward launch second nature for any pilot.

·         Risers – Redesigned, simplified riser, with 2 different attachment point options for any harness motor combination

Take Off and Landing – As easy as it gets, contrary to reflex profiles, the Thrust has a high lift, classic profile. This allows the wing to take off and land at the slowest speeds possible. The risers are cluster free, simple to operate and understand. This wing will be perfect for schooling as there is no simpler or quicker way to get airborne.

Handling – reconfigured – the wing is now more agile, quicker to respond with less brake pressure. The FAR® and Shark Nose allowed us to improve the Thrust V for sharper handling without undermining any other parameter.

Speed – the maximum speed of Thrust V is increased to up to 55+ [km/h] – outstandingly fast for this class!
This is due to the APP® shark nose profile which allows higher speeds without compromising safety.

Construction – built to last. APCO’s legendary double siliconised cloth together with other lighter types of material will guarantee more hours of enjoyment than any other wing.
Lines – all sheathed for maximum protection in all conditions.

Paragliding – leave the trimmers closed and the Thrust V becomes a well rounded paragliding wing to enjoy both disciplines.

Schools opting for a non-reflex wing for students, will find Thrust V to be the perfect wing, making it easier for both the pilot and the teaching process.

APCO Thrust 是我們系列中最長的機翼之一。 Thrust 是初學者/中級經典(非反射)翼,使用簡單,安全且易於進步。

它受到普遍喜愛,並在動力傘翼的整個進化過程中經受住了時間的考驗。

Thrust V 延續了 Thrust 的傳統,但它是一個全新的機翼——更新了最新的技術!

FAR® – Flow Aligned Ribs – Thrust V 是第一個包含此功能的模型!這是定位滑翔機肋骨的正確方法 - 簡單地解釋了尖端會產生更多的升力!這種額外的升力提高了性能,更重要的是,提高了機翼的安全性和穩定性。

APP ® - 鯊魚鼻輪廓允許更高的最大速度,同時保持更恆定的內部壓力 - 頂篷是剛性的,增強了新手飛行員的信心。

對接孔 2 – 顧名思義,這些孔很容易釋放收集在樹冠內的任何沙子或碎屑。

發射 – SRS® 立管輔助發射,快速輕鬆地將機翼置於頭頂上方,沒有超調,使任何飛行員的前向發射成為第二天性。

立管 - 重新設計、簡化的立管,具有 2 個不同的連接點選項,適用於任何線束電機組合

起飛和降落 - 與反射輪廓相反,Thrust 具有高升力、經典輪廓,非常簡單。這允許機翼以盡可能低的速度起飛和降落。立管是無集群的,易於操作和理解。這個機翼將非常適合上學,因為沒有更簡單或更快的空中飛行方式。

操控 - 重新配置 - 機翼現在更靈活,反應更快,制動壓力更小。 FAR® 和 Shark Nose 讓我們能夠改進 Thrust V 以獲得更銳利的操控性,而不會破壞任何其他參數。

速度 – Thrust V 的最高速度提高到 55+ [km/h] – 非常快!

這是由於 APP® 鯊魚鼻輪廓允許更高的速度而不影響安全性。

建設——經久耐用。 APCO 傳奇的雙矽化布與其他更輕類型的材料將保證比其他任何機翼都擁有更多的享受時間。

線路 – 全部採用護套,可在所有條件下提供最大保護。

滑翔傘 – 讓修剪器關閉,Thrust V 成為一個圓潤的滑翔傘翼,享受這兩個學科。

為學生選擇非反射機翼的學校會發現 Thrust V 是完美的機翼,使飛行員和教學過程更容易。

Characteristics

  •  

    TAKE OFF

    The Thrust V is factory trained to have a smooth inflation with no tendency to overshoot or fall back (even if the A’s are released too soon – thanks to the SRS).  The Thrust V has a high lift profile which helps to give it its low lift-off speed.

    起飛
    Thrust V經過工廠培訓,具有平穩的充氣性,不會出現過衝或倒退的傾向(即使A的釋放太快 - 得益於SRS)。推力V具有高升力曲線,有助於使其具有較低的提升速度。

     
  •  

    LANDING

    Low approach speed combined with long brake range, gives a highly efficient and safe landing flare.

    降落
    低接近速度與長制動範圍相結合,可提供高效安全的著陸眩光。

     
  •  

    THERMALLING

    Low min sink, coordinated flat turns with no tendency to dive into the turn.

    熱氣流
    低水位下沉,協調平轉,無傾向潛入轉彎。

     
  •  

    PERFORMANCE

    The high lift capacity profile gives a lower power requirement  / RPM throughout the entire speed range.

    性能
    高升力容量曲線在整個速度範圍內提供較低的功率要求/ RPM。
