SORRY Es gibt noch keine !ubersetzung für diese Seite.The Whistler has attained a very good reputation with both Speed-flying pilots and Speed-flying schools thanks to the wide glide range available with brakes and its precise handling. For the 2009 season we have redesigned the canopy and have improved stability through the whole speed range with very high loadings. After extensive testing we have achieved our goals of simplicity and durability for our newest speed riding glider. Improved sail tension has resulted in minimum canopy movement. The handling is precise and progressive. The Whistler 2 is equipped with trimmers to improve the glide to match the terrain or when needed. The trimmers are positioned on the risers and are easy to use. We have designed a well balanced glider which is uncomplicated and easy to handle with a wide brake range. To slow down or increase the glide you simply add brake. With hands-up the Whistler 2 is fast enough!
You simply choose the size according to the wing loading you want - high wing loading for experts, low wing loading for beginners. The Whistler is available in sizes 16²m,14²m,12²m,11²m and 10²m. The 14²m and 16²m sizes are for light or heavy beginners. The 12²m and 11²m sizes are for very experienced pilots. The 10²m size is intended only for very light, experienced pilots and for experts. The Whistler can be delivered complete with the Buggy – a harness and rucksack in one.
