Consequently, pilots feel more confident during long transitions and thermal climbs.Advance Companion SQR – Copy
DLS Technology: Lightweight Meets Longevity
What truly sets the IOTA DLS apart is its unique structural concept. Unlike typical lightweight wings that compromise lifespan, this model incorporates reinforced zones and robust materials exactly where needed. Therefore, it not only performs exceptionally well but also endures the stress of regular XC missions. Even after extended use, the wing retains its shape and handling characteristics.
Effortless Launch and Precise Ground Handling
Whether on a mountain slope or flat field, the Advance IOTA DLS inflates effortlessly. Its reduced weight helps the wing rise cleanly, even in light wind conditions. Moreover, its compact design makes ground handling both smooth and accurate, enabling safer launches and better preparation for takeoff.
Designed with the Pilot in Mind
From riser layout to line optimization, every element is created to reduce drag and enhance usability. Additionally, pilots will appreciate the thoughtful placement of handles and color-coded lines, which streamline setup and reduce launch errors. The IOTA DLS supports intuitive flying, helping you stay focused on the sky ahead.
Your Next-Level XC Companion
To sum up, the Advance IOTA DLS is not just another high-performance glider—it’s your reliable partner in every thermal and glide. Ideal for experienced pilots ready to push boundaries, this wing combines innovation, durability, and unmatched flying comfort.
PERFORMING
Efficient Pitch Control
The high degree of pitch stability provided by the profile conserves energy, especially when gliding in turbulent air, thus conserving glide performance. An efficient pitch control system with C-handles delivers the two-liner feeling while flying for distance, and sophisticated 3X3D shaping gives the IOTA DLS wing a perfectly smooth leading edge.
LIGHT & DURABLE
Durable Lightweight Structure (DLS) Advance IOTA DLS
The new IOTA DLS is offered at weights from 3.9 kgs, without compromise in lifespan or robustness. Highly stressed areas, especially the entire upper surface and all ribs, are made from a variety of robust and low strech quality Porcher Sports fabrics.
