"The Chronos is a modern powered glider with extraordinary manoeuvrability, light and sporty handling and easy take off and landing. Carefully selected aerofoils together with a combined reinforcement technology using mylar and plastic filaments delivers high performance, stability and a good cruising speed. Low fuel consumption is then the icing on the cake.”
With the Chronos, Mac Para have gone for something in the middle, using conventional paragliding technology with some reflex added. The result is a strong wing for paramotoring. When we reviewed the MacJet in 2010 we said that the wing owed a lot of its takeoff behaviour and manoeuvrability to Mac Para’s paragliding heritage. But full reflex wings aren’t for every pilot - the fuel consumption and sink rate for example are slightly higher with a reflex wing. The Chronos then should appeal to the group of pilots who don’t want the disadvantages of full reflex but who still want to fly distance. By using a conventional design with a dash of reflex to help at top speeds the wing retains a high degree of manoeuvrability in the air.
