In only a few short years since Mac Para introduced the Muse it has become one of the best selling and most popular motoring gliders in the world. Because of its easy handling, superb launching abilities, and DHV 1 stability, pilots and instructors everywhere recognize the Muse as an exceptional glider. Many gliders in the DHV 1 class are safe but boring to fly, especially after the student has gained more confidence and skill. But not so with the Muse! Uniquely, it has the handling of a Sports Class glider with the stability of a school wing. Both new and experienced pilots will enjoy their experience of the Muse. The transitioning from free flight to powered flight is very simple. Hook up the carabines in the second position and off you go with shortened riserlenght for powered flight! No need to extend the brake lines.
The Muse 2 has 39 cells and a nice elliptically shaped canopy with an aspect ratio of 4.65. The classic construction with diagonal V-tapes and a system of load-bearing tapes gives canopy stability and helps to keep a clean profile. Line configuration remains the same as the Muse 1 with an additional E-line. Intensive testing on different curvatures of canopy resulted in a well balanced glider with simple take-off characteristics and easy behaviour during extreme manoeuvres. The canopy is very resistant to collapse. In an induced collapse the glider gives a rotation of 30 degrees. The opening is smooth and fast. The Muse 2 has lively handling but the canopy is well damped in all axes. The light brake pressure allows pleasant turns during long thermal flights, but increases progressively towards the end to offer a good safety margin. The Muse 2 comes with a 4 point riser system and is equipped with split A risers for easy big-ears.
The use of high-quality materials and constant quality control during our own MAC PARA manufacturing process together with consistent development work produces high quality products.
If you already feel that para-motoring is going to be a large part of your life, then you will enjoy assistance from easy launch behaviour, sporty handling and high performance.
