The Airtime Explorer is an Australian powered hang glider harness that was designed and produced by Airtime Products of Airlie Beach, Queensland. Now out of production, when it was available, it was supplied assembled.[1]

Design and development

When combined with a cable-braced hang glider-style wing, the single-engine pusher configuration Explorer features weight-shift controls, foot-launching and landing.[1]

The powered harness is mated to a standard hang glider wing. The wing is supported by a single tube-type king post and uses an "A" frame control bar. The engine is a two-stroke, single cylinder Radne Raket 120 of Шаблон:Convert, and fitted with a 3.5:1 ratio reduction drive. The nylon harness mounts the engine and Шаблон:Convert, or optionally Шаблон:Convert fuel tank. Dual retractable skids are provided to protect the propeller during take-off and landing. Electric starting and a carbon fiber folding Шаблон:Convert propeller are standard features.[1]
