APCO AVIATION

Air XTreme

Ulilizing CAD CAM Design.
Advanced materials to ensure longevity of the wing.
Hundreds of flight hours invested in testing to ensure your safety.
Comprehensive testing safety, strength, integrity and overall stability were primary goals.
As Simple and safe to fly and handle as your familiar powered parachute, but intended for experienced pilots, and requiring an understanding of the limitations of the wing.
Easy launch with short take off.
Smooth and Simple handling, light touch responsive turning without dramatic altitude drop in turns.
Smooth level flight without cart leaning to the left and back, because of the lower RPM at straight and level Fight.
No radical swings forward and back with throttling up or down.
Reduced Engine RPM by 1,200 - 1,500 for straight and level flight.
Fuel consumption down by half.
Double the glide and sink rate performance; 7:1 rather than 3.5:1.

Caution: The wing is designed for experienced pilots with sufecient airtime. Proper training is mandatory to safely operate the wing within its "frame of limitations", when upgrading from your "PowerWing" to the AirXtreme.Have Fun, Fly the Wing.

AX 400

The Air XTreme 400 (released after the 500) differs from the 500 in that it has a higher speed, quicker response and generally a more sporty feel. It is intended for more experienced pilots. Even though it has a smaller area than the 500, the Maximum load rating remains the same.

Eliptyczne, sportowe skrzydło izraelskiej firmy APCO . Charakteryzuje się większą szybkością postępową,  szybszą reakcją i dużą dynamiką.  Większa doskonałość wpływa na mniejsze opadanie  w stosunku do skrzydeł prostokątnych, znacząco obniżając  obroty silnika i zużycie paliwa. Skrzydło jest przeznaczone dla doświadczonych pilotów.

Po wykonaniu wielu lotów można poddać weryfikacji następujące parametry podane przez producenta:
- rzeczywista prędkość  wynosi około 56 km/h,
- rzeczywiste opadanie przy wadze optymalnej i w ustalonym opadaniu (długotrwałym) 1,90-2,2 m/s,
- rzeczywiste opadanie przy wadze maksymalnej i w ustalonym opadaniu (długotrwałym) 2,50- 2,70 m/s,
- podczas startu skrzydło zachowuje się bardzo niestabilnie,
- zachowanie w locie bardzo dobre.
