BEAT 2

THE BEAT GOES ON! The perfect balance of outstanding safety, simplicity, and performance.

Pilot Profile:

The BEAT strikes the perfect balance of outstanding safety and simplicity on the one hand and performance that will satisfy even an advanced pilot at any time on the other. You will experience the clearly better, more forgiving take off behaviour. You may immediately feel the better handling, higher agility, even more “defined” feedback.

The BEAT 2 is the highly anticipated successor to PHI's bestseller, representing the 'Golden Ratio' of their wing range. While keeping the original ground shape and outline, it features an entirely new internal construction with moved line suspension points, optimized diagonal fingers, and V-shaped anchor connections. Changes to the intake, sail cut, rods (now on the bottom sail too), and a completely different stabilo enhance its performance. The BEAT 2 offers significantly improved and forgiving takeoff behavior, higher agility, and more defined feedback. Addressing pilot requests, it uses only robust, sheathed orange lines on the brakes and stabilo for easy ground handling.
