DeScrIPtIOn
The SCOTCH.HY is a paragliding wing for both motorized flight and normal launches
from mountains using the conventional start techniques without the motor.
HY stands for hybrid, since the SCOTCH.HY is both an excellent paramotor wing as well
as a paraglider wing with very good performance characteristics. That way, and the big
advantage to purchasing this wing, a pilot does not have to buy 2 separate wings.
The SCOTCH.HY is delivered with our special Motorizer (a Riser attachment system)
serially manufacturered, which also includes a Trimmer system with a DHV 1-2 GH Cer-
tification in the weight classification of 90 – 110 kg.
When the Motorizer system is attached while using a motor, the Riser system and
Trimmer can be used to counter balance or offset the torque of the motor and also
increase the trim speed of the wing in flight. The SCOTCH.HY is also certified to 130
kg/150 kg dependent on the size of total weight under the DULV certification.
The Motorizer system is also equipped with 2 separate harness connection points, the
lower connection for free flight when not using a motor, and a second connection point
up the Riser when connecting the wing to a paramotor system and harness.
The high performance characteristics of the SCOTCH.HY allows the pilot to fly using
less motor power and offers better gas mileage, to cruise nicely along the landscape.
The wing Cells are equipped and use Diagonal and Parallel reinforcement bands, which
offers an optimal weight distribution across the wing. With our so called „Ballooning“
computer model and design system we compensate for the blow up effect thus crea-
ting a very homogeneous Wing.
The higher surface tension of the upper Wing is a direct correlation of this Ballooning
effect compensation and thus generates among other things, a higher performance.
The optimally adjusted Riser system and connection point to harness uses proper line
thickness and thus less air resistance with a very good wing to weight distribution
reinforcement and support.
The SCOTCH.HY upper wing material at the forward leading edge, uses a special Por-
cher Marine material called 9092E85 with excellent longevity characteristics and com-
bined with our excellent manufacturing technique, a garantee for long life and
extended value.
Therefore, we would like to wish you many long and successful flights. Your equipment
is now ready for use.
