ATF Trike · ATF and Stratus XP Wing

The ATF Trike can be used with your hang glider, but the best performance across all flight conditions will be achieved with our new Stratus XP lightweight trike wing.

The Stratus XP is a double-surface wing with a state-of-the-art airfoil, and is great for cross-country flying, short-field take-offs, and has excellent handling.

The ATF Soaring Trike (ATF = Air Time Fix) adds power to your hang glider so you can climb to the thermals and power-off for lightweight trike soaring!  You can use your hang glider with the ATF Trike, or use our specially-designed Stratus XP wing which has been built specifically for this lightweight trike, with a state-of-the-art airfoil design.  The double surface Stratus XP wing provides best performance for cross-country, has a great sink rate and slow-speed handling, and is best for short-field take-offs.  No mountain, no problem!

Imagine! Ascend effortlessly up to cloudbase.  Shut the engine off and soar in silence with the birds all afternoon.  When the lift gets light, pull the overhead starter and fly back to your flying field.  View more ATF Soaring Trike photos in the Photo Gallery.
