Sussex Hang Gliding school are now agents for the stunning new WASP powered hang gliding harness. This harness allows you to takeoff from flat fields. No more carry-ups, no more driving aimlessly around following the wind. No more crowded sites. Just set it up and fly. The electric start makes for easy re-starts in the air and no hassle on the ground.

The harness features an articulated design which allows the pilot full rotation onto the uprights for landing and makes take-offs a dream. It is powered by the tried and tested Radne 120 Aero engine which produces 45 kg of thrust. The fuel tank holds 4.5 litres and will give you between one and a half and two hours of flight, depending on pilot weight and throttle use. On a no lift, no wind day you could still do a 40 mile XC and leave your buddies watching in awe.

Features of the Wasp Harness:

  • Articulated front loading harness
  • Choice of prop, carbon or wood
  • Front mounted chute
  • Mouth throttle
  • Foot throttle (unique to the wasp)
  • Choice of colours, red, yellow, silver, purple, blue
  • Suitable for any hang glider
  • Choice of tuning, power settings
  • Electric start
  • Prop brake
  • Engine kill switch
  • Made in England
  • Excellent back up service
