Discus T has been specially designed for nanolight trikes, with a Discus hang glider used as a base. It
comes in two sizes: Discus 14T and Discus 15T. Handling the Discus T in the air is as easy as handling a
conventional hang glider.
Fox T is another wing for nanolight trikes for those who want to feel the simplicity and real pleasure of
bird-like flying. It has been developed from our beginner glider Fox and has been reinforced and adapted
for flying with nanolight trikes.
Fox 13TL is a kingpostless wing that combines performance of a Discus T with simplicity of construction
and quickness of rigging and de-rigging of a Fox T. Due to its unique design the nanolight trike with a
Combat T wing will allow you the whole aircraft storage with the wing only partially de-rigged and folded
in but still attached to the trike. This allows storing the trike with the wing on it in a really limited space
in a hangar or even in a garage. Setting the wing that already attached to the trike up for flight takes
about five minutes.
Combat T is another step higher in nanolight technology. It is designed for those who want to extend
their abilities of flying faster and farther. Due to its unique design the nanolight trike with a Combat T
wing will allow you the whole aircraft storage with the wing only partially de-rigged and folded in but still
attached to the trike.
