Less glare, full height - the tinted long visor for your Solar X.

Want glare protection against low sun, but without losing coverage at the top and letting the airflow reach your eyes? The tinted long visor (brown) for the Icaro Solar X takes the glare out of your field of view while covering the full visor height. It fits the Solar X and swaps over quickly - so you can fly relaxed into the circuit even against the evening sun.

Compact, clear view - the clear short visor for your Solar X.

Do you prefer flying your Icaro Solar X with the short visor shape - nicely compact, open field of view below - and need a replacement now? The clear short visor gives you back exactly that open, clear view and fits the Solar X exclusively. Swapped over in just a few steps, and the scratched visor is history.

Compact glare protection - the tinted short visor for your Solar X.

Summer, high sun, and you're flying the Icaro Solar X with the short visor shape - that's when you want glare protection up top without giving up the compact field of view. The tinted short visor takes the harsh light out of your line of sight and fits the Solar X exclusively. Quick to swap once the old visor gets scratched - so you can see out again with total ease.

The matching mounting set - so your Solar X visor sits securely.

A new visor for your Icaro Solar X is only half the job - without the matching mount it won't stay put and won't flip cleanly. This set holds the visor securely on the helmet and stops it taking on a life of its own in the airflow, keeping it up when you push it up. Order it along with your visor and you'll have everything together at the airfield.

Bolt it on, wire in 12V, get seen - no separate driver box needed.

It's hazy, the sun's low, and you know: in this soup the other guy won't see you until late - if at all. That's exactly when a bright flash makes the difference. This LED strobe is a self-contained single-head flasher: the electronics and flash head sit in one housing, so you don't need an external driver box. Wire it to your 12V bus, bolt it to a wing or tail - and your microlight or trike stands out against the backlight instead of vanishing into it. The straightforward way to retrofit anti-collision lighting without building a wiring harness and control unit into your aircraft.

One flash head now, up to three later - visibility to your own scale.

Circuit pattern on a busy weekend: several aircraft on approach, plus training traffic, everyone keeping a lookout for everyone else. A timid blink won't cut it here - you want the other guy to catch you in the corner of his eye straight away. The High-Power system is your entry point: one high-output flash head plus a driver box already built for up to three heads. Start small and expand later without a new box. You set the flash pattern and speed yourself, and when you need it, double the output power - for pilots who want to take their anti-collision lighting on wing or tail to the next level.

Driver box faulty? Replace the heart of the system, keep your flash heads.

You plug in, arm the strobes - and nothing flashes. The heads are fine, so it's the heart of the system: the driver box. It powers the flash heads, sets the flash pattern and controls the speed. If your box has given up the ghost, or you're building a second setup, this is the matching replacement. It drives up to three flash heads, so you simply keep using your existing heads and lenses and get back to being visible in the air quickly.

Stainless-steel whip that doesn't wilt in the airflow.

You taxi out for departure, open the throttle - and that's exactly when some antennas start whipping about in the airflow, turning the radio into a game of chance. The Stinger doesn't play along. Built from flexible stainless steel, it simply flexes with gusts and vibration instead of breaking. Whether it's a circuit with the info frequency or cruise at altitude: you transmit, you're understood - clean, from taxi to shutdown.

The Stinger for the hang glider - mounts to the king post, radiates clear of the sail.

On a trike you know the problem: structure is everywhere, and a badly placed antenna disappears into the radio shadow. This Stinger is made exactly for that. You bolt it to the king post and, with the included extension, bring it out cleanly beyond the sail - out of the shadow and into free radiation. Flexible stainless steel shrugs off the airflow on an open trike, and your radio stays clear from take-off to landing.

Dual-band handheld for 2m and PMR - on the ground and at the field.

When several people need coordinating at the field - tow, launch control, the person at the other end of the strip - you need a handheld that covers more than one radio band. The Wouxun KG-UV86 is a dual-band VHF/UHF unit that comes with pre-programmed 2m and PMR frequencies. That covers both everyday club and ground communication and licence-free PMR radio.
