Ladies and Gents, Steven Has Arrived!

Steven, the RC Skydiver by Opale has officially landed!

Taking full advantage of the latest innovations issued from the development of our RC paramotor models and the partnership with the European champions of this RC discipline, the Skydiver Steven as a unique design allowing to push the boundaries of the RC Skydiving leading to better performances.

Thanks to the composite materials and a thoroughly and optimized assembly, the weight in order to fly of the skydiver (including the parachute), is only 1100gr. This low weight allows you to perform smooth and extremely accurate landings. But you can also easily weigh it down during strong weather conditions. The legs are cleverly assembled with silent blocks to absorb the shocks of (most) landings, and providing also different positions of the legs during free falls or when the parachute is deployed. These possibilities enable an extreme steadiness during free falls and was verified during wind-tunnel tests.

Two colors, Blue and Orange, are offered when choosing your Skydiver.
