The Fuse 4 is a durable, high-performance workhorse engineered to enhance the daily operations of professional tandem flying.

Key Features:

• Increased Top Speed: The top speed is 3 km/h higher than the Fuse 3, providing crucial extra speed for penetrating valley winds or coastal flying.

• Exclusive New Fabrics and Durability: Features a considered choice of materials for professional longevity:

  • New Lower Surface Fabric: A new 29g PU-based composite quattro-coated fabric (co-developed with Myungjin) is introduced on the lower surface.

  • Refined Fabrics: Further refinement of the Myungjin 40g and 32g fabrics on the top surface.

  • Rib Material: Porcher Skytex 40 hard finish is used for the ribs for specific performance requirements.

• Upgraded Trim Riser: The new trim webbing material is 20% stronger for extended service life, with a new, easier system for replacement if wear eventually occurs.

• Improved Take-off and Handling: Material choices (lighter fabric and stiffer plastic rods) help the wing come up faster (e.g., in light tailwinds) and ensure lighter brake pressures—noticeable when flying at the top end of the weight range.

• Innovative Big Ears System: Retains Gin’s unique system, making it much easier and faster to pull and release big ears. The pilot can still use the brakes to steer the glider during big ears, useful for glide ratio control on top landings.

• Versatile Weight Range: The wide weight range and number of sizes offer versatility, with the size #44 expanding the operational window for heavier passengers or difficult take-offs. Smaller sizes can also be flown solo or with children.

• New Plastic Rods: The new formulation offers greater stiffness to help keep the leading edge shape, resulting in better take-off, handling, and in-flight feeling.
