Winches of previous generations: no longer in production, but still serving their owners.

TANDEM

An extremely easy-to-use electric winch suitable for towing tandem paragliders.

Water-cooled controllers and motors — the ideal choice for large clubs.

Technical specifications of the TANDEM winch

Power
20 kW;
Weight
92 kg;
Pull
170 kg*;
Battery
2xLNMC, 75 V, 6 kWh;
Battery weight
2x41 kg.

* — with 64-tooth driven pulleys.

The batteries are enough to tow 50 tandems or 100 solo pilots in calm air. These are the hardest conditions: the stronger the wind, the less energy is used. The batteries can be recharged from a small 2…3 kW inverter generator while the winch is working. In that case the number of tows is unlimited. You simply cannot run the batteries flat.

The TANDEM works well together with a SOLO used as a payout winch. Pilots can then do step tows, climbing in both directions.

A light payout winch for use with the SOLO winch.
Weighs 45 kg — ideal for working with a SOLO when your group has grown and there is a queue of 10+ pilots at the launch.

Automation and silence at the launch.
Addictive from the very first tow! :-)
