Extreme flight maneuvres | Materials
In case the MOUSTACHE is far behind the pilot, DO NOT release the brakes
immediately, keep them below the ‘minimum speed’ position until the wing is
above or in front of you. This will prevent the wing from going into a fast surge
forward.
DUE TO THE REFLEX CONSTRUCTION OF THE MOUSTACHE,
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO STOP A SURGE FORWARD WITH A
QUICK AND DEEP PULL ON THE BRAKE HANDLES, RATHER THAN
A GENTLE PULL. BY TRYING TO STOP WITH A GENTLE PULL, YOU
MOST LIKELY EVEN ACCELERATE THE SURGE AND A FRONTAL
COLLAPSE IS INEVITABLE.
8 MATERIALS
The FLARE MOUSTACHE is manufactured from the highest quality materials.
FLARE has selected the best possible combination of materials with regard to
resilience, performance and longevity. We are aware that the durability of the
glider is a deciding factor in the pilot’s satisfaction.

TAKE-OFF-WEIGHT CHART
The right choice of size is for sure the most important decision you have to
make to enjoy the perfect FLARE experience. According to this, we designed
the recommended Take-Off Weight Chart for you.
Additionally please make sure to watch the ‘Sizes’ video in our ‘Academy’
section, which is dedicated to support your decision on what size to choose.
Our Recommended Take-Off-Weight Chart shows you how dynamically
the wing reacts and which skill level it requires based on your take-off
weight (at 0 wind speed).
We have passed EN 926-1:2016 with the load test and shock test at 120kg.
Since there´s no homologation / LTF, which is not possible at the current
point of time due to our new construction, make sure to check & follow
your national law and insurance regulations.
