NYOS 2 RS
…superior XC flying!
The Nyos RS was once described as the “Rolls Royce of the High-B class” in a highly acclaimed test report due to its cultivated flight behavior.
The aim in developing the Nyos 2 RS was to combine this flying comfort with more performance and sportiness to create something extraordinary: To resolve the apparent contradictions between performance and comfort, as well as agility and control.
The motto for the development of the Nyos 2 RS was evolution rather than revolution. We placed particular emphasis on maintaining the proven characteristics of its predecessor, but were able to significantly increase the maximum speed and glide performance by optimizing the canopy and line resistance. The more agile and precise handling of the NYOS 2 RS – compared to its predecessor – noticeably improves the thermal characteristics and is reflected in excellent climbing performance. The narrower gradation of the weight ranges makes it easier for you to select the ideal wing size.
Conclusion: The NYOS 2 RS offers performance-hungry cross-country pilots plenty of performance with maximum flying comfort and is predictable and easy to control even in demanding conditions.
Who is the Nyos 2 RS for?
Even though the Nyos 2 RS has inherited the high flying comfort of its predecessor and is easy to control, we recommend this wing for experienced intermediate pilots and ambitious cross-country hunters.
Features
On paragliders with RAST, the inside of the canopy is divided into different (pressure) sections by one or more fabric panels, sometimes with valves at right angles to the direction of flight. This makes it possible to influence the airflow in the canopy. The mode of operation is comparable to a bulkhead, e.g. in tanks.
With RAST, the air equalization flows in the paraglider canopy can be regulated through defined openings. This applies both during inflation (launch) and deflation. In the event of pressure loss, e.g. caused by canopy malfunctions, the relative internal pressure of the CORE section increases, while the BUFFER section absorbs the energy introduced by deformation. Furthermore, RAST can be used as an additional stress level to the leading and trailing edge, which has a positive effect on flight comfort. As RAST connects the ribs over the entire profile height, the construction has a stiffening effect and reinforcements and/or stiffening elements can be saved or even completely replaced by this special construction method.
With the NYOS 2 RS, RAST has been optimized for the following properties:
- Smooth flight and maximum control in demanding conditions
- High canopy stability even at maximum speed
Nitinol is a high strength, temperature and corrosion resistant shape memory alloy. The name Nitinol is an acronym for Nickel Titanium Naval Ordnance Laboratory. SWING is one of the first paraglider manufacturers to use the material known from medical technology as nose reinforcement in paraglider construction.
In the NYOS 2 RS, the Nitinol reinforcements are inserted into nylon tubes. This made it possible to increase the cross-section – and thus the contact surface for the topsail material – without having to forego the positive properties (buckling resistance, length and shape stability) of the memory material. The leading edge is therefore less susceptible to premature wear and remains dimensionally stable in the long term.
Ballooning at the trailing edge has a significant influence on the performance, control pressure and handling of the glider. Miniribs halve the cell spacing in this area and thus reduce ballooning for a homogeneous trailing edge.
The highlight:
The seams of the miniribs run on the inside of the upper sail so that no sewing threads can get caught on the ground and pulled out, even when launching on unfavorable ground.
The targeted control of tension through 3D shaping at the leading edge of the upper sail is now standard in paraglider construction in order to make the flow-relevant areas as wrinkle-free as possible. Depending on the model, the 3D shaping is either single or double.
We have supplemented the standard 3D shaping with an additional 3D shaping at the trailing edge to optimize the aerodynamic effect of the miniribs.
We use the latest generation of unsheathed aramid lines for the NYOS 2 RS. The special Pro Dry coating reduces the moisture absorption of the line by -60% and also increases UV resistance and dirt resistance.
The lines are easily visible and easy to sort thanks to their magenta, blue and orange coloring, even without a sheath. The high rigidity of the line material reduces the formation of knots in the application.
In contrast to the SWING C-Bridge, the SWING C-Control for effective pitch control connects the C2-riser with the B-riser. By pulling down the C-riser, you can influence the angle of attack more effectively during accelerated flight without having to leave out the foot accelerator. This gives you the opportunity to actively control and steer your paraglider in accelerated flight. You can use the separate C1 riser for directional corrections or as emergency steering.
