I flew the size M 75-95 at 88 all up and later at 92 all up. I was able to fly in some really strong guts of wind! while pushing forward. (Tom’s suggestion in winds over 35 km)Īctually, it flies very well in windy conditions and moves forward without the feeling of being pinned by the wind! This feature on the Little Cloud Urubu King is quite impressive. I tried to fly also in winds over 30km’h, and to my surprise, the inflation is quite easy while moving toward the glider to smoothen the rise. The take-off in nil wind is super easy, as the glider inflates well. I let you see all the details of the glider here: The size when packed is ‘around’ half the size of an Alpina 4 for example. It is a light glider that can be packed very small. Dominico 10 D is used on the glider's top and bottom. The Urubu King is a 6.45 Aspect ratio 3 liner with unsheathed lines all over. It means that Tom Bourdeau (Owner/designer) tuned it to satisfy his personal philosophy while delivering a safe Little Cloud product for the C-class pilots. The Urubu King I am test flying is targeted for the C class pilots and it is not bonded by a certification label that sometimes restricts the feel and homogeneity and especially the soul of a glider. If you look in the Little Cloud range, you will see four mini wings and five regular gliders including a tandem! Little Cloud introduction sentence: (It all started in 2008… with Tom’s vision of being able to enjoy flying as much as possible, all year long, and with maximum pleasure, LittleCloud was born).
