Advance IOTA DLS: Start a New Era of XC Flying
The Advance IOTA DLS is a high-performance XC specialist designed for pilots who want maximum comfort and efficiency over long distances. As the successor to the legendary IOTA series, it introduces the Durable Lightweight Structure (DLS), making it a light wing (starting at 3.75kg) that doesn't sacrifice robustness. With its high pitch stability and refined handling, it is the ultimate tool for ambitious cross-country pilots in the High-B class.
Uncompromising Performance & Comfort
- Genuine XC Performance: The IOTA DLS features a profile derived from the high-performance SIGMA 11, offering excellent pitch stability. This stability translates directly into performance, especially when gliding through turbulent air.
- Durable Lightweight Structure (DLS): By using an intelligent mix of Skytex 32 and Skytex 27 fabrics, Advance ensures the wing remains 100% suitable for daily use while weighing up to 700g less than its predecessor.
- Advanced 3x3D-Shaping: This technology smooths the leading edge area more effectively than standard 3D shaping, resulting in a wrinkle-free surface that minimizes drag and maximizes lift efficiency.
- Two-Liner Feel with Pitch Control: The modern pitch control system with C-handles allows you to actively control the wing while on speed bar, maintaining the profile shape for maximum glide.
- Relaxed Flying Experience: Optimized lift distribution and tuned canopy tension provide superior turbulence absorption, giving you the feedback you need without the fatigue of a nervous wing.
