Moyes Litespeed RS -riippuliidin

The Litespeed RS top sail surface is fully constructed from durable PX Mylar cloth and is standard as a full white surface with Titanium Oxide finish to reduce UV effects on the sail. An optional “smoke inlaid” sail is also available. The smoke inlaid sail uses a lighter semi-transparent dark Mylar cloth in the centre of the wing surrounded by white PX Mylar. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the smoke inlaid sail reduces the weight of the sail by approximately 1.5kgs. The under surface is made from Dacron, and is divided into three areas which can be customised to suit the colour requirements of the pilot.

The Moyes Litespeed RS is supplied standard with full aluminium leading edges, carbon fibre cross bars, standard aerofoil uprights and a round base bar. The glider flies extremely well in this configuration, however glider weight can be reduced and handling improved through the inclusion of an extensive range of performance options.

If using the standard uprights, an aluminium aerodynamic FAST base bar can be added. The preferred option is to upgrade the A-frame to the Moyes Zoom uprights and carbon fibre speed bar. The new Moyes Zoom uprights feature an extremely aerodynamic profile constructed from extruded aluminium and presented with an electrically etched black finish. The Moyes Zoom carbon fibre speed bar uses the same aerodynamic profile as the Zoom uprights. The base bar is hand laid using pre-impregnated carbon fibre cloth and is pressure cured at a high temperature to ensure an attractive and durable finish.

A range of carbon fibre performance options are available when ordering the Moyes Litespeed RS. These include carbon fibre outer leading edges, carbon fibre inner leading edges, carbon fibre dive sticks, carbon batten set and carbon fibre leading edge inserts. Except for the carbon batten set, all these options are hand laid using pre-impregnated carbon fibre and pressure temperature cured to provide light yet strong components. The carbon fibre options provide a stiffer and lighter alternative to the standard aluminium components, contributing to the handling and performance of the glider.

Behaviour/Features: – Light predictable handling for easy control in heavy Traffic. – Reduced airframe weight. – A tight wrinkle free sail with minium twist providing superior glide performance. – Improved pitch stability and tumble resistance providing uncompromised safety. – A spar utilising pre-impregnated carbon fibre to ensure the best possible strength and structural consistency
