Target

The Luna is the wing that will take pilots from their first flights to completions. The Luna’s reflex profile creates a simple balance of speed and performance making it perfect for exploring the world.

Description

Designed by Bruce, the Luna is a paramotor wing with Cord Cut Billow (CCB) along the leading edge. CCB helps keep the Luna’s reflex profile perfect making the wing really stable at all speeds.

With the Luna we focused on the wing’s easy inflation, fun manoeuvrability, stability, and top speed. We believe we have found a great combination for paramotoring.

Bruce's Notes

I wanted to make a wing that would be easy to launch and have a short take off distance but also fast and stable for cruising.

With a flat area of 27m², I designed the Luna relatively large and added a reflex section with long trimmers.
After month of testing and progressing we found, that the relatively large surface area of the wing gives early lift and trimmers out we get excellent stability at speed. It is just an easy wing under power.
