SKU : AIRWV-MAGIC5-M-CORE


The Magic5 is a high performance wing for long distance cross country flying and competition use, and is the latest evolution of our serial class wing. It's directly developed from the Magic4 and incorporates a lot of the cutting edge developments we have made in the last two years with the FR Series. Inclusion of these improvements in technology has allowed us to increase the aspect ratio from 6.22 to 6.4, whilst still improving the level of safety.
The Magic5 is even easier to fly than the Magic4 - it's exceptionally clean profile cuts through turbulence better than all its predecessors making it easy to fly efficiently even in rough air. The result is less stress for the pilot, allowing them to concentrate on making the right strategic decisions to maximise their performance.

THE BIG DISTANCE RACER

The Magic5 is a high performance wing for long distance cross country flying and competition use, and is the latest evolution of our serial class wing. It's directly developed from the Magic4 and incorporates a lot of the cutting edge developments we have made in the last two years with the FR Series. Inclusion of these improvements in technology has allowed us to increase the aspect ratio from 6.22 to 6.4, whilst still improving the level of safety.

The result is less stress for the pilot, allowing them to concentrate on making the right strategic decisions to maximise their performance.

DESIGN NOTES

It was hard to know where to improve on the Magic 4, except to try and find more performance with the same handling, whilst not compromising the safety of the design. First we incorporated the X-Brace that has become a characteristic of the FR series and is also now used on the Sport4. This single X of reinforcing webbing in the middle of the wing gives a centrally reinforced region of stiffness and creates a stronger, more collapse resistant wing.
We've also used the new style of internal rib on the Magic5, which gives an even higher level of stability and sink rate throughout the speed range. Instead of using the same style of internal rib across the chord, the Magic5 uses a different style of rib at the front from the back. This is a design feature that we first developed on the FR3 that then went on to be used on the Mustang2 and Sport4.
Combining the new internal ribs with a racy profile has enabled us to create a wing with an exceptional sink rate, yet with great stability at speed, and by redesigning the speed system so that it adjusts the camber of the wing as it is accelerated, we believe we've hit a near perfect combination for racing and big distance flying.
