The Silex is a special motor-paraglider, designed with safety in mind. The Silex inflates easily and quickly and does not hang back. A light tuck on the risers will get the Glider overhead with little effort.The Silex is very efficient and has a good glide ratio. The best features are high top end speed, light brake pressure, easy turning with high roll rate and high internal pressure to resist tucks.The Silex has short Risers, making “Big Ears” and B-stalling possible. In addition to that trimmers can be used to increase speed considerably and to compensate for the torque of the motor.The Silex is available up to a maximum of 308 lb take-off weight. The Silex is safety certified by DULV (German Ultralight Organisation)
