APCO Thrust IV

THRUST range of wings has been around for years. A lot of things have changed in the past decade – flying has come to be safer, more fun and less complicated.

Each generation of Thrust was an improvement over the previous, fulfilling pilots expectations. The third generation introduced in 2011 quickly became to be our dealers' favorite. Feedback accumulated and experience gained since, led us to implement further improvements making this excellent wing even better - THRUST IV is born.

Special attention was given to improve the rigidity of the wing, polish the handling, and optimize its feedback – all this combined with increased pilot comfort and safety.

Handling now refined to give the best possible agility with perfectly coordinated roll and yaw – centering on lift effortlessly. Wing feedback is gentle and predictable filtering out air “background noise” efficiently. It cuts through turbulence effortlessly with high resistance to deflations.

For pilot looking for dual purpose wing – THRUST IV is THE choice.

Risers redesigned (using slimmer 20mm. webbing) to be suitable for all types of paramotors and trikes with different hangpoint systems. The risers feature trimmers for fast cruising, new ball bearing pulleys on accelerator and magnetic brake connectors with swivel on the handle to prevent brake line twist. 

THRUST IV born from perfect blend of the best in Thrust III and Thrust HP. In all it is much improved paramotor wing, as well as a very nice, sweet, free flying glider for stress-free, enjoyable flying under power or just soaring.

THRUST IV implements all the traditional APCO features - SRS® (Stall Recovery System) as standard, HIT valve, FLEXON batten and now also with ball bearing pulleys on new redesigned 20mm. risers.
