The MAESTRO 3 stands in a line of legendary high B wings.
With those wings, the high B has be invented once and was constantly defined over many years.
Here is the next step: better, more relaxed, more balanced, safer, easier to fly and more performant than all it’s predecessors.
The MAESTRO 3 has a touch more aspect ratio, a different profile, different rods (Nitinol with padding), a slightly different rigging, different straps, canopy tension, mini ribs etc.
It performs better, flies a little nicer, is even more stable and has much better, smoother handling.
Overall it feels much more relaxed and is safer than the MAESTRO 2.
Pilots flying the MAESTRO 3 report the 3rd generation being more stable, easier, better climbing, better handling and better performance and faster in max speed.
To reach an wider target group, the MAESTRO 3 has normal length riser and more covered lines.
Except stabilo all lines down to the carabiners are covered!
Even during a long and successful career as a designer, it is not often that you are sure that your latest new creation will be an incredible success.
With the MAESTRO 3 there is no doubt.
-Forget the usual clichés: new benchmark, better than ever, more performance, more safety, better handling, etc.!
-Just try it!
You’ll be amazed!
Thanks to the test pilots Alex Höllwarth, Benni Hörburger and Rene Pfister for their work!

The MAESTRO 3 light will be available in the sizes 17, 18, 19, 21, 23, 24 and 25.
We do the 2 biggest sizes only in the light version to limit packing volume and weight.
The new Neoprene padding on the leading edge distributes the pressure of the Nitinol rods over a larger area and makes the wing nose significantly more robust against abrasion.
Nitinol in general is offering very easy packing and low stress by being very form stable.
Because of the superb form stability of Nitinol and the optimised 3 section 3D shaping, the lift section of the MAESTRO 3 airfoil is super smooth.
The MAESTRO 3 has the R14 riser as the standard riser. It is offering “floating B” with C handle steering. In contrast to the R07, it has the standard length of 540mm.
You can mount a hard Carbon handle or grab the soft Neoprene handle: as you like.
As usual you can choose the riser at ordering without extra price.
