SYNERGY 4 – Call to action

We spent 18 months in development, tests and various prototypes and present now the Synergy 4 LTF 2 / EN C. The Synergy 4 surprises with the large real (6.31) and projected (4.40) A/R , 11% higher than its predecessor. The curvature of the canopy turns the wing in an excellent climber and very stable even accelerated.

Its enhanced design and profile are the result of our traditional technologies (FHT, LCT, HTM) paired with the new perception of tested and approved knowledge (DVT, SIS) of our aerobatic and competition wings. The improved features of this project permit a large speed range and excellence at stability.

The Synergy 4 consist of 61 cells and has internal crossed diagonals applied at the profiles to distribute the weight uniformly. This maintains the canopy very shapely and clean and reduces the induced drag.

The Synergy 4 was designed at the computer. Its enhanced design and profile are the result of our continuous development and refinement process in terms of performance paired with stability. The improved features of this project permit a large speed range and excellence at stability.

PILOTING AND BEHAVIOR DURING FLIGHT

Pilots that usually fly more basic gliders should easily adapt to the Synergy 4. They will notice a huge improvement on performance and should initially fly the wing in smooth conditions to get used to the added speed and agility. Intermediate pilots should immediately feel fat ease with the increased performance. More advanced pilots used to flying higher spec. wings will have more safety without feeling any loss of performance.

Synergy 4 was created with the intention to guarantee the pilots' safety with a good performance glider. Such a mixture generated a trustworthy canopy with excellent gliding ratio, aimed at both cross country and intermediate pilots.

Synergy 4 uses SOL technologies for performance and comfort

High Project Aspect Ratio: 11% higher A/R than its predecessor : real (6.31), projected (4.40);

Full Hybrid Technology: hybrid utilization of 3 types of fabric. A combination of durability and resistance with low deformation and less weight;

Laser Cut Technology: Molds and parts cut with laser equipment.

High Tech Materials: highest technology materials guarantee durability - Diax Laminates, Inox Hardware, Polyester of High Tenacity and Vectran lines in top gallery and other parts result in a reduced drag of 22% compared to traditional lines with cover;

Double V-Tabs: system of internal double crossed V-Tabs in the centre of the wing generating a solid structure for best lift in flight;

Seamless Stabilo: The stabilo's leading edge has no junctures and is seamless.

COMFORTABLE TECHNOLOGY

1- Brake pulley;
2- Risers magnetic button;
3- Swivel;
4- Magnetic button in the brake handle;
5- Nylon inserts on the carabiners;
6- Nautical pulley in the speed system;
7- Speed system clips;
8- Different colors of risers on the left and right sides

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

The layout is advanced using the latest design features. Compared to the previous version "Synergy" the construction is more detailed with 58 cells and a longer projected span. These characteristics allow the full use of performance of the whole layout, without compromising the desired level of safety and handling in this project.

More efficient and accurate calculations were done to obtain a cleaner and smoother canopy. The diagonal construction in every cell reduces the quantity of lines, which helps to improve the precision of the whole wing. Synergy 4 was built with materials that allow us to offer a Warranty of 300 hours of flight or 3 years of use, without loosing the original characteristics of the equipment.

CONSTRUCTION CHARACTERISTICS

· Riser for big ears;
· Diagonal bands to reduce weight and the number of lines;
· Profile reinforcement in Carbon/Mylar;
· Modern technique applied on cutting;
· Clean layout.

FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS

· High internal pressure;
· Great stability in full speed;
· Light reactions in extreme conditions and good passive safety;
· Easy inflation and excellent takeoff (even in nil wind);
