Pilot Profile
We designed and built the Xduo from scratch, placing much value into first class handling,
which is clearly noticeable through the low control pressure. The double seater reacts
precisely and promptly, already to the smallest control pulses and is therefore easily steered
into curves and manoeuvred in general. It may occur that you forget you are flying a tandem
at all. In terms of performance, the Xduo makes up for its surface area having a double effect.
Working very efficiently in thermal lift and reliably transforms it into height and when in
turbulent air, the glider stands solidly with precise feedback and a direct flight feeling.

The shark nose is providing high stability and an extended inflow area. We doubled passive
safety as it is a priority when flying with passengers. The canopy reactions are moderate and
very damped accordingly, creating the sense of calm and composure in every situation.
