  • Easy Custom Tuning

The ECT innovation brings more safety & performance with the ability to fine tune - SKYLIGHTER 3 to your desired control & feedback level.

Easy set up

The adjustable and semi removable ABS allows for the pilot to easily and logically choose the degree of sensitivity and stability, quickly and easily. These settings can further be enhaced, and even more in-flight sensations can be exprienced, by removing the carbon seat board for the seat board free experience.

Fine tuning and personalisation is now a reality with the SKYLIGHTER 3.

R&D comments

More performance, more safety.

This is what we wanted to achieve and these are the two factors that do not always go hand in hand easily.

On those big days when the thermals are rowdy and the transition glides are long, roll stability is an important performance factor. Being able to comfortably “lock in” to the rowdy core and then glide with a roll stable wing/harness set-up increases the performance of your glide.

Not only the air but also no two pilots or glider models are the same and this is just one reason why SKYLIGHTER 3 differs from the crowd.

The new geometry and high adjustability of the ABS settings & removable seatboard, uniquely allow this harness to be highly tuned to the pilots’ specific requirements offering a variety of stability, feedback & control settings and thus added performance but does not decrease the safety.

And that was the goal we had to reach!
