NRG V4 – The New Generation of Freestyle

We are proud to introduce the 4th generation of our legendary freestyle paramotor wing – now refined with Mohawk, Shark Nose technology, and our new leading edge reinforcement system for a rock-solid profile, even at maximum speed.

The NRG V4 is built for pilots who demand both adrenaline and versatility. With crisp, precise handling, outstanding stability, and surprising comfort, it’s the perfect companion for everything from dynamic freestyle sessions to long XC adventures.

Its key innovation is the Zipped Mohawk system.

Closed Mohawk: unlock an ultra-dynamic, rolling wing with lightning-fast reactions and aggressive energy.
Open Mohawk: enjoy a more damped yet lively wing, tuned for XC efficiency and stability – perfect for long flights with friends, while still letting you throw in wingovers and power loops along the way.

Available in three sizes – 15, 16, and 17 – each designed for the perfect balance of speed, agility, and comfort. Whatever your style, one thing is guaranteed: the NRG V4 will put a huge smile on your face.

WARNING: DO NOT! test fly this wing, unless you are ready to buy it!

This wing is highly addictive.

The wing uses the same long lasting cloth and fully sheathed durable lines as on previous APCO wings. This is to guarantee its integrity for entire expanded lifespan of the wing. Nevertheless we made maximum effort to reduce the weight of the wing thanks to advanced solutions applied.

APCO is traditionally known for using materials and building techniques which offer double and triple lifespan over the expected. The glider is made from tear resistant Ripstop Nylon cloth, which is P.U. coated to zero porosity and then siliconized to give the fabric high resistance to the elements. Different cloth is used for the top, bottom and ribs due to their different functions.

The lines are made of superaramid covered with a polyester sheath for protection against UV, wear and abrasion.
The bottom section of the brake lines is made of Polyester because of its better mechanical properties. The Karabiners that attach the lines to the risers are made of stainless steel.

Difference between NRG PRO II and NRG XC II ??

The Pro 2 is a much more agile and quick wing then the Pro1.
It is also faster in transition from trim speed to accelerated and back to trim speed – like in pylon racing.
In general, we have made a bigger difference between the NRG XC to the NRG PRO.}
The NRG XC II is now with ABS and more XC oriented then it used to be and the PRO is a racier wing.
The NRG PRO II too is faster than the PRO, but this is mainly due to the higher Anadral !

OAA - what should be the trimmer settings?

From the Manual “In order to engage the OAA one must detach the brummel hooks connected to the rear risers below the trimmers. Prior to using the speed system one must move the trimmers to the neutral position (all risers level). To disengage the OAA one must reattach the brummel hooks on the rear riser. When operating the speed system with the OAA disengaged one must release the trimmers open before activating the speed system.”

Basically when using OAA the trimmers should be at zero position and not opened completely.

The OAA brummel hooks can be managed in the air, just recommended not to adjust close the ground – pay attention that you have enough altitude (to avoid obstacles and have the time to react for engine failure etc.)
