Spice (Powered)

Technical description:

     The Spice was specifically designed for paramotoring, with emphasis on stability, maximum speed, and of course, excellent manoeuvrability. The Muse and Eden 2 have both built a formidable reputation for use under power and the Spice completes our range as a high performance paramotoring glider.

     Newly developed airfoils have allowed for higher speed and for low fuel consumption. Immediate and precise reaction to control input, manoeuvrability, easy take-offs with ample lift, and easy landings reflect the properties of the new Spice.

    The Spice has 63 cells and an aspect ratio of 5.8. The construction uses diagonal ribs, “Depowering lines” and line configuration as used for the Intox. Colours and designs are the same as those used for the Magus.
The Spice comes with a 4 point riser system and is equipped with special split A risers giving more stability by accelerated flight. Of course it also helps for big-ears.

    The use of high-quality materials and constant quality control during our own MAC PARA manufacturing process together with consistent development work produces high quality products.
