Caution:
Due to high resistance of the Warp against both
side and front collapses, we strongly recommend not to
provoke such situations at all, even during safety trainings.
Inducing collapses in standard way can be very hard to
impossible, while unconventional attempts can result in
extremely violent and dynamic behaviour.
Caution:
Extreme flying manoeuvres should only be carried
out during safety training courses (instability training) under
proper guidance!
One sided collapse
When the trimmers are fully opened or the speed system is
engaged, collapses practically do not occur and can be induced only
by a very strong turbulence. Still, if it happens, a little counter-
steering is enough to keep the Warp on course or at least decrease
a swing of the canopy toward collapsed side. Under normal
conditions with collapses up to 50% of the wingspan, the wing will
reinflate instantly and spontaneously. If not, you should aid this
process by application of a brake on the collapsed side.
When the collapse occurred with trimmers in open position or
additionally with speed system engaged:
- release the speedbar at once,
- control the direction with steering handles,
- try to close the trimmers ASAP.
If the Power attack is engaged:
- release the speedbar at once,
- on the deflated side, still holding the steering toggle, pull down the
D riser above trimmer buckle so that its original position is restored,
thus initiating the process of clearing the collapse.
Frontal collapse
The reflex profile of the Warp makes it practically impossible,
especially at higher speeds.Any forced attempts can lead to
extremely deep collapses, so recovery will require decisive pilot
action (short and equal application of both brakes). When the
trimmers or PA system are activated follow the side collapse
procedure, but this time symmetrically.
Full stall and negative spin
May happen only as a result of serious neglect or intentional action
of the pilot. You have to be careful when flying at very low speeds
until fully familiar with brake operation.
