gazza_c Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Evening peeps, hope some or most of you are getting some flying time in now the weather is semi changing!! I might be after a new wing this year. Had the ReAction since I started flying(7yrs ago).. wicked wing even by todays standards, now looking at the New Nucleon WRC.. who can give some feedback of this wing for me!

ScaredOfHeights Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I love my WRC With 250 hours in 18 months it's been a full on relationship.. lol It has great launch characteristics, though you need to "get into it". Great thing is it tends to sit nicely once up, in fact I've abused the relationship by regularly pausing during launching and watching it "sit" this doesn't go so well on other wings.. lol It has a huge range on the trimmers, from slow through to very fast. Brakes are light and dynamic, lots of fun to throw around. Love the little things like torque compensation on the trimmers. Negatives; It's not very efficient, I get 2.5 hours on 11L of fuel (Thor 130) Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob999 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I love my WRC Negatives; It's not very efficient, I get 2.5 hours on 11L of fuel (Thor 130) Matt I'm in the same boat, looking for second XC wing this year. The Nuke is on my list as well. I'm interested that you think its not fuel efficient, I only get 4.5 lit per hour out of my Roadster and Moster Zenith, and I like to fly smooth and economical.

ScaredOfHeights Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 My friend flys the same paramotor with 12L of fuel. With a free flying wing and gets nearly 4 hours and another pilot gets over 3 hours on the Speedster. Having said that the WRC is fast and near bullet proof when conditions get lumpy, so there is a trade off. I get my 120km triangle in 2.5 hours and my buddy needs all 4 to make it around.

Chilly Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 When I was Comp Director in 2013, Nucleon WRC came in top for economy tasks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScaredOfHeights Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Clearly no one flying a Hadron then..? Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Rob Its not the wing its your motor.. the Moster is not at all efficient. I can get 2lph out of my Mac Fly 250 without playing with any jets or prop pitch.. I Can also get 3lph on my 16m Ozone Slalom again without play with settings..
