R-Bus 2: GREAT ADVENTURES TOGETHER
Excellent stability
The stability of the wing has been improved, maintaining a smooth turn and minimising in-flight movements, especially roll. Everything to ensure that pilot and passenger enjoy an unforgettable experience.
Higher maximum load
The R-Bus 2 can carry a maximum wing loading of up to 600 kg (+100 kg compared to the previous model) in all sizes.
Safer launch and landing
The R-Bus 2 has an extended speed range compared to its predecessor, thanks to an increased maximum speed (+3 km/h) and a decreased minimum speed (-5 km/h). This also reduces the distance needed for take off and landing, making the flight more comfortable and safer.
Complete control, even on the ground
Accessible, solid and agile, it inflates uniformly and takes up the weight quickly and progressively. It takes off easily, even in unfavourable conditions. Guaranteed efficiency from the first to the last moment.
A-Assist System
The A-Assist System, which is an extra maillon on the A-riser, allows the pilot to attach the A-risers to the trike to keep their hands free and comfortably operate the brake controls. The pilot can adjust the optimal length to make the connection between the trike and the A-Assist System.
Reduced brake pressure
For increased pilot comfort and thanks to the improved brake line cascade, manoeuvrability and handling have been made easier. The brake pressure when turning or landing has been reduced.
In addition, to help reduce the effort required when using the brakes, the pilot can use only the High Speed Tip steering when manoeuvring, reserving the main brakes for launch and landing only.
Very efficient glide
The R-Bus 2 maintains glide efficiency, which helps reduce fuel consumption and gives the wing excellent speed and height retention for soft landings. In case of an engine failure, it is much safer due to its reduced sink rate (-2.5 m/s for a wing loading of 420 kg on a size 40 wing).
Target
Professional flights with a trike
A paramotor tandem designed to satisfy the most demanding pilots. Its durability and stability make it the best choice for professional flight enjoyment.
Recreational PPG tandem flights
Enjoy tandem paramotoring in comfort. This glider has been designed with the aim of adapting to the needs of the pilot and their passenger, and to experience the most pleasant recreational flights.

Optimised internal structure and load distribution
A reinforced internal structure, together with the new line plan and a new arrangement of the attachment points, allows a comfortable and balanced distribution of the loads in flight.
Reinforced line set
A new distribution of lines and attachment points enables a uniform inflation so that the wing rises quickly without the tendency to overshoot. By using the new TNL-500 lines, with an enlarged diameter of 2.45 mm and a redesigned internal structure, it has been possible to increase the maximum wing load/drag. All lines are sheathed to increase the overall durability of the glider.
Improvements in manufacture and materials
The profile has been perfected, decreasing drag, while increasing efficiency and performance thanks to the sewing method, improving tensioning and seams. Changes have also been made to the cloth, using Dokdo 42 g/m2 on the under and upper surface.
New arc
The new arc design has reduced the wing’s roll movements.Nitinol and leading edge optimisation.
Nitinol and leading edge optimisation
As in the previous version, the incorporation of Nitinol in the profile reduces wing deformation. At the same time, it forms a tauter, crease-free leading edge and maintains a much cleaner profile.
Perfected trimmers
Excellent top and cruising speed. With the new, more effective and easier to use built-in trimmer adjuster, the pilot can precisely control the course and speed, regardless of the weight they are carrying. The trimmer system has also been improved to allow for slower launches and landings.
Risers
A new webbing material has been used for the risers, which is 26% stronger than the previous one.
Tip steering
The High Speed Tip, which now has a rounded shape, is better positioned on the riser, works with a magnet and is adjustable to the preferences of each pilot. The High Speed Tip is independent of the main brake, which eases turning by reducing the force required to perform the turn. Manoeuvrability is improved and the pilot has much more direct control at all times. To balance the physical strength required and responsiveness to the input, the High Speed Tip can also be used in conjunction with the main brake.
Brake pulley with three positions
The three-position adjustable brake pulley allows the brake height to be changed to suit the inpidual pilot and flight equipment to facilitate comfort during piloting. The repair kit of the R-Bus 2 contains an extra set of lines, with an extra metre of brake line and High Speed Tip to be able to adjust them to the desired length.
