Suitable harnesses
Basically the IOTA 2 can be flown with any harness that does not have
rigid cross bracing (see section “Certification“) .
The chosen harness should ideally have a carabiner distance of ca .
45 cm and a support height of between 40 and 48 cm .
For the tests the following settings were used for the harnesses:
§
All-up in-flight weight less than 80 kg: carabiner distance 40 ± 2
cm, height 40 ± 1 cm
§
All-up in-flight weight 80 to 100 kg: carabiner distance 44 ± 2
cm, height 42 ± 1 cm
§
All-up in-flight weight more than 100 kg: carabiner distance 48
± 2 cm, height 44 ± 1 cm
Info:
Experience has proved the theory – a streamlined harness
can significantly improve gliding performance .
The IOTA 2 was specially trimmed for use with a streamlined harness .
For this reason we recommend a harness with speedbag in order to
get the best out of the IOTA 2’s great performance . The ADVANCE
IMPRESS or LIGHTNESS harness is particularly suitable since the
IOTA 2 was designed and tested with them in mind .
