The Thrust HP 2009 project mission was to improve the already popular Thrust HP into an even greater wing, renamed THRUST HP 2009 (or for short THRUST HP '09).The HP has claimed many fans worldwide and was received exceptionally well by pilots and media. It is indeed our best paramotor wing - and now even better!!
Improvements are based on accumulated pilot feedback.
The HP '09 shares the philosophy of THRUST HP, but has incorporated new cutting edge materials and the latest technological innovations to make it a better performing, longer lasting, easier handling, lighter and safer wing.
Thrust HP '09 combines the advantages of the Thrust at low speeds with the latest Reflex profile technology in high speeds to yield a specialized paramotor wing that would offer true high performance yet retain the friendliness and safety of the Thrust.
The Thrust HP '09 employs a unique patent-pending Automatic Stall Recovery System (SRS) that allows the pilot fly and launch at amazingly low speed despite the high wing loading. It prevents the wing and pilot from stalling at critical angle of attacks and aids in automatic recovery in case of a stall.
New designs features were incorporated into the wing such as New generation
FLEXON ® batten system, new lightweight cloth and stabilo steering examplify APCO's uncompromising attention to detail. The Thrust HP '09 is a versatile high performance paramotor wing for pilots who wish to stretch their flight envelope and keep their smile in the air.
Thrust HP - When there's a need for Speed
CERTIFICATION
In order to prove the safety of Thrust HP '09, we cooperated with Air Turquoise - official EN certification laboratory to conduct a new ground breaking test sequence for all parameters of safety as a paramotor unit, in addition to standard paragliding certification - the tests confirmed that the reflex hybrid technology of Thrust HP actually improves the safety of the wing on higher speeds or with trimmers released.
During the test, load on A and B risers were measured at different angle of attack at different speeds and it was proved that the load rises on A and B risers with increased speed, making collapses more difficult, contributing to the stability. Click here to view results
