These are the designs of our basic models.
Flying
The MASALA2 is pure joy not only because of its simple and precise handling. It is a good fit for safety-conscious beginners as well as experienced mountaineer.
The MASALA2 climbs effortless in thermals thanks to JET FLAP technology. It shows absolutely no negative tendencies, allowing the wing to core easily even in strong thermal conditions.
The accelerator is operating as smooth as possible and even at maximum speed the ultralight glider still has reassuring safety reserves. Brake pressure rises dramatically before the stall point is reached. Big ears are especially easy with the marked risers.
Design
Through the use of Skytex 27 as main material for the top and bottom sail and the use of very light risers, we were able to achieve a weight saving of more than 2kg compared to gliders as the MESCAL4 or CHILI3.
Particularly noteworthy is the large weight range, for example from 55-95kg in XS. In all weight classes it is a pure EN A! To be on the move with a small and extremely light wing, legally and on a top level of safety is a very special charm, which becomes increasingly popular.
Rigid Foils in the leading edge provide for a light, form-stable profile contour, C-Wires dampen the trailing edge of the wing and allow the MASALA2 to convert every updraft. All reinforcements are made from indestructible plastic and are bend-resistant, thus making special packing methods unnecessary.
Just like its big brother the CHILI3, the MASALA2 is equipped with only 3 line levels. This simplifies ground handling and decreases drag considerably.
Performance
Despite its lightweight construction, the MASALA2 is a high performance wing in its class.
A remarkable glide performance and a well rounded feeling in thermals guarantee long and enjoyable flights.
Very good glide performance and high end speed go hand in hand with high stability and a safe feeling for the pilot.
Safety
As expected from an A-wing, the MASALA2 offers the biggest possible passive safety. The reactions of MASALA2 in extreme flight behavior are very moderate.
Pitch and pendulum activity after a collapse are very subdued, the wing opens quickly and dependably.
Thanks to integrated Jet Flap Technology, reaching to the stall is very long and is early shown through a massive increase in brake pressure. It is hard to destabilise the MASALA2, making it an ideal relaxed companion for all conditions possible.
A forgiving starting behavior allows it to launch even in the most difficult terrain.
Of course the MASALA2 was also certified without the use of folding lines!
The pilot suitability of this lightweight glider extends from beginners to experienced mountaineers.
