The
Vulcan has been created to replace the Octane. Designed with the
true sports pilot in mind we have managed to produce a wing that
outperforms the Octane in all aspects but we have retained the
"feeling" that made the Octane so popular.
How
did we make it better? We have worked on all aspects of the wing,
we have a new profile, which offers more performance throughout
the speed range, but interestingly it also offers more pitch
stability than before. The plan form has changed significantly to
incorporate an increased aspect ratio a smaller tip area and the
addition of more cells.
Like
all our wings the Vulcan's handling is beautifully refined. We
have spent many hours fine-tuning the Vulcan until we got the
feeling and precision we were looking for. The Vulcan is quick and
nimble in the air and if you initiate a turn using brake and
weight shift you will find a wing that reacts amazingly quickly
but is very easy to control. This gives you the option to be
either very efficient while doing flat turns in light lift or
should you want a little excitement, just pull harder and use
weight shift and you can wing it over effortlessly.
B2
Tabs
The Vibe was the first wing that we developed with the double B
tabs. Now it is a standard feature on all our prototypes and
production wings, the Vulcan is no exception. We have found it
offers more stability in flight and reduces the pitching effect
even further making the wing very comfortable to fly even when it
rough and turbulent.
The
end result is a wing that retains a dynamic feel but will allow
pilots to maximize their performance while feeling comfortable and
confident at all times. A wing you can really use and enjoy.
