Paramania Revo 2 Paraglider
![]() Beginner / Intermediate Reflex powerglider |
The Revo2 is fast and stable, fun and safe : easy enough to be used by paramotoring schools, but also versatile enough to grow with an intermediate pilot who is aiming at cross-country and everyday use. The handling is forgiving anywhere within the slow trim range and ‘super slow’ trim is perfect for low and slow flight or paraglider deep-brake landings. The combination of a good sink rate and the wing’s tight turning radius enable pilots to practice unpowered paragliding skills, thermal flying and soaring too. On fast trim it is a pure distance eater, flying as if on rails. There is no need to hold the brakes, apart from occasional tip-steer course adjustments. Others are often left in its wake! |
Characteristics :: Icaristics
When you first get the Revo2 out of the bag and inflate it, the word that immediately comes to mind is ‘easy’!
As you lay it out, the large cell openings with CLE supported leading edge present themselves to the air, almost ready to breath. Even in light or variable winds the wing comes up with minimum effort, stops and stabilizes above your head, as if waiting for you to move forward!
When launching, it quickly lifts you clear of the ground with minimum effort and almost no oscillating tendencies (vital when taking off heavily loaded or with a trike unit).
Once in the air it is so comfortable that you soon forget that there is a wing flying above your head!
Benefiting from Mike Campbell-Jones's latest “deep” Reflex wing section, It simply absorbs turbulence like no other reflex wing we have made.
The risers and controls have been logically thought through, whilst keeping simplicity as the main priority we have added several interesting new features.
The Revo2 flies as if on rails. It has plenty of pitch and roll stability. Given its beginner wing disguise, on fast trim it is a pure distance eater. Pilots can relax and go, no need to hold brakes, apart from occasional tip steering course adjustments. Others on paragliding type wings and even the average reflex wing are left in its wake!
Pulling the trimmers down; you notice slow trim is split into two positions ‘Slow’ and 'Super Slow’ perfect for low and slow flight or forgiving Paraglider-like landings. The combination of good sink rate and the wing’s tight turning radius, enable pilots to practice Paragliding skills (even without power) thermal flying and soaring in light conditions is now easy.
The handling is sublime anywhere within the slow trim range. Responsive and smooth, giving coordinated positive turns, even against powerful engine/propellor torque effects.
The controls feel light, yet with enough feedback to keep the pilot informed.
The length of brake travel is just right, comfortable to fly yet forgiving of heavier handed pilots.
True Reflex Technology :: 100% pitch positive wing section
The Revo2 has the most pitch positive profile we have designed since the very first Reflex wing! With more stability at speed then any other Reflex wing curently on the market today!
