2 Place Strutted Series 15M , 17M and 19M Wing

The new strutted wing is a "State of the Art" topless (no king post) trike wing designed with side struts that take the place of the cable rigging. Stability of the wing in pitch is achieved by a sprog and washout strut at the wing tip area. This takes the place of the reflex bridles used in the old style wings. Because of the reduction in drag, handling all around has pleasantly improved both in pitch pressures and roll rate. From the 19 to the 15 the new M-Pulse is a joy to fly.

The beautiful Strutted M-Pulse series is designed for two place Trikes. We also manufacture a line of single place wings. Some of the criteria for this terrific design was the ablity to instruct, tow Hang Gliders, fly off of water and just all around fun/sport flying. All this is possible because of it’s unmatched low speed handling!

The Strutted M-Pulse is a highly refined wing capable of a extremely wide, 30 mph speed range. Not only that!! One of the most impressive achievements in the M-Pulse series is their terrific light handling qualities,in both pitch and roll, making the M-Pulse the easiest wing to fly on the market. With one hand you can fly your M-Pulse with confidence. And the take-off distance....WOW!, this can be as little as *85 ft. (17) in no wind. The easy to use, simply designed hardware makes setting up your M-Pulse a simple and enjoyable 15 minutes.

QUESTIONS???

Q. Your wing is lighter than other mfg. two place wings, is it as strong??”
A. Yes, our wings are just as strong. We use a series of 5 tubes that fit into one another. This allows us to add material where we need strength and less materials in areas to save weight.

Q. “Are the Struts just as Strong as cables?”
A. Struts are stronger than cables.

Q. “How is the wing stable without the kingpost and reflex lines.”
A. The “topless” no kingpost wing is not new, HangGliders have been doing this for 8 yrs. Trikes are behind the times. For stability we use 2 “sprogs” (w/o struts) per side to take the place of the top wires.
