Anyone with some advice on good harnesses? had a Moyes XC but didn't like the backplate much, Aeros Viper seems good as does the Woody valley Tenax - Flex also looks good value too but difficult to decide from pics

      psuguru The Viper's a bit top-end for racers. The Myth is the Aeros XC harness and it's very neat. The only things I dont like are the lack of chest strap adjustment and the rather fiddly zip.

      NickL I've currently got a Myth, and used to have a Cosmic which was very nice but unfortunately it didn't fit me properly. I like the slider on the Myth, it's very stable up and down, but the backplate is made of interlocking ally tubing, rather than composite, which I wouldn't really trust quite so much if I had a sharp parachute deployment. Otherwise both are very nice, but heavier than a simple harness like the Flex. P.S. If this were made a thread it might be easier to read, but no biggie! Happy flying :)

    Roycie Anybody have a Manual for a Moyes SX5 - or know where I can get one? (don't say try Moyes as they don't respond to mails, - probably sussed there isn't a sale in it..)

    Roycie Who sells the Solar Wings eclipse in the Uk? Looks great, does it land any slower than most?

      Ollie As pop's says its just an early rigid wing and has all the flying characteristics of one too... i wouldent have said it fly slower but with flaps and spoilers you can slow it down and variate your speed very well... if you want any other details don't hesitate to ask!
