High level glider for competition pilots
Davinci has developed an impressive and advanced competition glider The Popera! Proudly to say it create a great rivalry to its rival in the market!
Design and Competition Focus:
Popera is positioned as a top-level competition glider, which is designed for serious competition flying.It belongs to the ‘D’ category, designed with a high level of performance and speed hence high skilled pilot with active input needed to fly the Popera.The aspect ratio close to 7.0 indicates a sleek and aerodynamic design, contributing to enhanced performance, penetration and amazing glide!
Innovative Features:
Double Layer System (DLS): This technology is employed to maintain semi-inflation of the glider, reducing the risk of big collapses. This feature is crucial for stability and safety during flight especially during turbulence and strong condition.
Smart Nose System:This system is used to enhance internal pressure by minimizing airflow out of the glider. This will enhance to internal pressure of the glider hence improve the shape and stability of the glider that will maximize the performance.
Performance Highlights:
Super light accelerationmake it easier for pilots to push the bar especially during full-speed! Smart Steering System (SSS) make pilots can easily manage and control the glider even at high speeds, providing a confident and responsive flying experience especially during turbulence.
Competitive Edge:
Davinci is expressing confidence in Popera's capabilities, positioning it as one of the best in the market.The assertion of serious rivalry with competitors indicates that Davinci believes Popera has the potential to outperform other gliders in the current market!
In summary,
The Popera, equipped with cutting-edge Smart technology, sets a new standard for stability and collapse resistance in the D class category. This innovative technology enhances the glider's performance, making it an exceptionally stable choice for cross-country (XC) flying. Popera makes D class cross-country flying safer than ever before. Pilots can embark on long-distance flights with increased confidence, knowing their glider is designed to handle various conditions effectively. Needless to say with this new generation D glider, flying cross country with high level glider is made easier and way safer than before! Popera by Davinci appears to be a cutting-edge competition glider with innovative features designed to enhance stability, safety, and overall performance. With emphasizing on smart technologies and competitive edges design, Davinci is aiming to establish the Popera to be the new generation glider as a top contender in the top level cross country competition scene in the market!
