The Ellipse Zenith is a French high-wing, single-place, hang glider that was designed and produced by La société Ellipse of Étuz.[1]
The Zenith was designed as a competition hang glider and was built in only one size. With structural reinforcement it is also suitable for adding a motorized harness for powered hang glider operations.[1]
The Zenith is made from aluminum tubing, with the wing covered in Dacron sailcloth. Its 11 m (36.1 ft) span wing is cable braced from a single kingpost. The nose angle is 132° and the aspect ratio is 7.7:1.[1]
