Titan

The TITAN marks the end of compromises. JetFlaps regulate automatically
the air pressure system surrounding the kite leading to 2 important performance
features:
|
| Max power -
No stalling: Up to date, a kite’s lift was limited by the stalling point,
e.g. when the angle-of-attack became too large the kite would not create
lift anymore but stall or even start to fly backwards. JetFlaps do not allow
the kite to stall or fly backwards since the excess air pressure can evade
through the flaps. This means that the angle-of attack and consequently
the vertical boost and hang time can be increased beyond anything seen before. |
|
Max stability
- JetFlaps “feel” when the kite’s aerodynamics are not perfect (e.g. when
the kite is close to leaving the wind window or a gust forces the kite to
fly far overhead or a rider under jumps the kite). So before changing wind
conditions or bad steering cause the kite’s air flow to break off, the JetFlaps
compensate for lack of pressure on either side of the sail and cause the
kite to find its optimum position in the wind window. |
