Advance Pi 3 - Light Versatility
even lighter and more compact.
Compared with the Pi 2
New unified risers
The PI 3 has only one riser version; the advantages of the previous
versions have been combined. This riser is extremely light but also easy
to manage. 21 to 27 sizes have split A-risers for easy big ears: the smaller
16 and 19 do not have this function so save weight. Like all ADVANCE
risers, all sizes have the popular and useful Easy Connect system.
Pilot requirements
Higher wing loadings mean more
demanding flight characteristics and
handling. Small wings are basically
more agile and demanding to fly,
even when they are flown at normal
wing loadings. Loading recommendations
for Beginner, Recreational
pilot and Expert are given in the
table. A new feature is the fact that
the PI 3 19 remains EN/LTF B
certified over its entire weight range.
Uses
Depending on the wing loading the
PI 3 fulfils the widest variety of
pilot requirements. In the normal
wing loading area of around 3.5
kg/m2 it is ideal for thermaling;
from 4 kg/m2 the PI makes the
perfect Hike & Fly wing and at 4.5
kg /m2 and up we have a real
action wing. The additional 21 and
25 sizes now enable every pilot
to decide on exactly the PI 3 for
one of three purposes: «Thermal»,
«Hike & Fly» or «Mini Wing».
