GROUND HANDLING GLIDER

  • Docile and easy to manage in wide range of winds
  • Makes ground-handling training easy & fun
  • Handles well at higher windspeeds
  • Easy to inflate in zero wind
  • Not for flight!

The Roadrunner is an easy to use and highly forgiving paraglider that is designed specifically, and only, for ground-handling training. It is optimized for use in wind speeds that are too high to practice with a standard sized paraglider, but is also easy to use in light or zero wind conditions.

A reinforced leading edge makes inflation easy. The Roadrunner’s inflation characteristics are progressive and predictable. A two-riser system with split-A design allows training of various launch, control, and glider-disabling techniques. Magnet-attached brake handles are easy to grab, and replace on the risers while training.

Whether you are training for high wind or zero-wind launches, the Roadrunner allows a fun and easy progression. In strong wind the wing has no over-shooting tendencies, and doesn’t generate too much lift either. In zero wind, it rises gently and with minimal effort.

Schools will love the ease of use and the cost-savings. Save your “flight” wings for flying, instead of wearing them out for ground-handling. The Roadrunner was designed from the start with price in mind, with the goal to increase training efficiency while lowering costs for schools.

Kids love it too! Introduce younger and lighter pilots to the joys of kiting.

DISCLAIMER: Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this disclaimer before flying an ultralight aircraft. Paramotors, Powered Paragliders, PPG, PPG Trikes, Hang Glider Trikes, Weight shift Control Trikes - any of these small aircraft that weight less than 254 pounds and have a tank less than 5 gallons are considered Ultralights. These are single-place (solo) flying machines for sport aviation only during daylight hours. Ultralight flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self discipline. It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in it safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. Ultralight aircraft flying is an inherently dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. Ultralights are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of ultralight flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this activity. Safe operation of any ultralight aircraft requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a Novice Solo Pilot or in some cases a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the ultralight. In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control an ultralight aircraft, and may cause it to crash. Never take anything for granted in aviation. If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out immediately. By purchasing this item, you assume sole responsibility for your safety and hold harmless the retailer and manufacturer for injury or death resulting from your use of this item.
