And modifying the camber closer to the middle has a much greater effect than the same at the wingtips.Light Sport Aircraft KITS for Home Builders brochure page 1 I might modify the stabilizer, or the elevons, or add/cut off front weight, or bend the weight more forward or backward, or bend the front camber more or less. For example, there are several interrelated ways to adjust something as simple as stalling/diving. But Hang Gliders are more complicated, less forgiving. Although I test and adjust each one, and pack them carefully, what’s a beginner to do when a Hang Glider gets handled a bit too hard so that it’s out of adjustment? With a Jagwing you might be able to just flatten it out in a book overnight and re-bend the back. Otherwise the two designs are very similar.įULL DISCLOSURE: NOT FOR BEGINNERS Though a marvel of efficiency, Hang Gliders are also more complex than Jagwings, with dihedral, 4 segments of front camber and a built-in back stabilizer. I found that truncating (cutting) the wing tips increased stability. The Hang Glider is descended from the Baby Bug design. I can easily fly Hang Gliders with just one hand. More efficient than simple Jagwings, these are the best for when hands only are diverting the air wave instead of a big board. Like big hang gliders that carry people, these hang gliders are designed for efficiency.
