Arcus 6 paraglider

The Arcus 6 far surpasses all current LTF 1 gliders when it comes to glider performance and speed. Neat workmanship, high safety reserves and the use of the highest-quality materials are standard with the Arcus 6. The new Arcus (unaccelerated) is and will remain an LTF 1 glider. Its stability and well-balanced nature leave no doubt as to its suitability for learners to use for their first high-altitude flights.

It is a suitable glider for beginners, social pilots and weekend warriors, as well as pilots taking a step back from higher LTF classes. All will have great fun with this perfectly balanced all-round glider in thermal and cross-country flying.  Despite it's high performance and agility, it is ultimately up to the pilot to decide whether to make the glider an LTF 1-2. Nevertheless, pilots need not go without the handling and high trim speed of the LTF 1-2 in unaccelerated flight.
