Design features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Two FAI world records | According to BGD, this tandem holds two FAI world records: Ant Green and Elliot Nochez flew more than 5,066 m above Mont Blanc (altitude), and Ruben Vicente Crespo and Jose Ramon Martin flew 568 km in a 10-hour flight across Spain (distance). |
| Chord Cut Billow (CCB) | According to BGD, two chordwise seams on the top-surface panels of the leading edge take up the ballooning of the panels and reduce wrinkles in the top surface. |
| Elliptical cell openings | According to BGD, elliptical cell openings tension the bottom surface better and give smoother inflation and reinflation after collapses. |
| Progressive stability | BGD designs its wings with its own Parasim simulation program so that the centre is stable and solid and the tips become progressively softer. |
| Replaceable brake pulleys | According to BGD, the brake pulleys are attached with a larks-head knot, so they can easily be replaced or swapped for rings. |
| Snap Locks | According to BGD, Snap Locks are lightweight attachments for the brake handles on the risers. A magnet and a locking system hold the handle; it releases only when pulled down towards the pilot. |
| Tandem trimmers | According to BGD, the trimmers let the pilot change the angle of attack and thus the airspeed. The trimmer webbing is replaceable. |
