Maximum Stability & Fun

The DragonFly is a stable and versatile hybrid speed wing, designed for pilots of all skill levels. It is the perfect wing to launch your speed flying career, and is equally at home soaring a dynamic coastal cliff or carving a mountain descent.

Building on the legacy of the Firefly series, the DragonFly is founded on a simple principle: Maximum stability, with great efficiency for its class. A totally new profile has yielded improvements throughout.

 

 The Launch

The DragonFly launch is light and immediate in no wind conditions, and forgiving in high wind. Thanks to re-positioned cell openings and the new profile, it is even better suited to speed flying instruction and beginner use.

 

 Handling

More dynamic, yet roll stable and forgiving, it has a direct and predictable feel in the brakes. The roll rate feels responsive, but is never surprising. The DragonFly’s high level of passive safety is not only found in collapse resistance, but also in the fun yet forgiving handling.

 

 Glide Performance & Trim Range

Thanks to an increased trim range, the DragonFly’s glide performance is greater than the FireFly, and it also has a higher top speed. It all adds up to the ability to fly in a wider range of conditions and sites! Reach more distant LZs, and fly in more wind, comfortably.

 

 The Pilot

This is a wing for pilots of all skill levels who want a solid, stable, all around wing – the DragonFly is a reliable partner for your first speed flights and for larger pilots. Available in two sizes, 16m and 18m, the weight range goes up to 120 kg.
