Niviuk Artik 5 update
The Artik 5 in the test was one of the first released ones. After a few weeks ,Niviuk sent some lines to change this first batch !
There was 2 cm less in some C lines, and some brake adjustments.
I had the chance to re-test fly this last version.
The trim speed is slightly slower on this re-trim configuration and the Artik 5 pitches slightly back upon entering thermals. It's still very efficient in climb and glide on top of the C category !
The handling is slightly better and smoother !
Everything else is still the same. Still hard on the second bar.
I have liked the first version for it's biting and jumping into thermals, and it's fast trim speed !
When it's windy the first version was perfect ! in getting through the airmass.
The modified and final released version is still on top of the C category. The Artik is very well pressurized, very solid, very taught which leads to a comfortable glider in the air.
But the management is strong air needs a good high end C pilot.
Cheers,
Ziad
