Cayley Glider Overview
The Cayley Glider is engineered for both competition-level sport flying and relaxed flights with friends, offering versatile performance across a range of skill levels and weather conditions.
Available Versions
Choose the version that fits your flying style and conditions:
-
-
Ultralight – Optimized for smooth, early-morning air and extremely light lift conditions.
-
Light – Great for gentle thermals and low wind—lightweight with a bit more durability than the Ultralight.
-
Standard – A well-balanced setup for general flying in mixed or moderate conditions.
-
Stormy – Built for windy or more demanding weather, offering excellent penetration and handling in stronger air.
Each model can be ballasted to fine-tune weight and flight characteristics, allowing pilots to adapt to varying atmospheric conditions. The Cayley can also be ordered with or without IDS (Integrated Drive System) in the wings, depending on your preferred linkage setup and build requirements.
Performance-Oriented Wing Design
The low-profile wing offers excellent aerodynamic efficiency and is specifically shaped for smooth downwind recovery—critical during thermal chasing and competition flight paths.
-
Contrasting wingtips enhance visual tracking at long distances.
-
A solid black center panel acts as a clear focal point in the air.
-
The bottom surface is fully black with a custom-colored “C” for visibility and easy orientation recognition.
This color layout helps pilots identify the glider’s angle and attitude even at extreme distances or in low-contrast skies.
