Both brakes should be released out of a full spin so that the
glider catches up speed.
Caution: A spin is a dangerous, unpredictable flight manoeuvre
and should not be flown intentionally!
Should the case arise that out of a spin or stall movement a line-
entanglement or a tangled outside wing emerge, the resulting
rotational movement must be stopped by counter-steering
immediately. The steering force required for this may be
considerably higher than usual! (see above: Collapse with
entanglement). Visual reference with the surface must be
maintained at all times and in case of doubt or when losing
control, the safety parachute must be deployed right away!
The toggle must always be fastened to the steering line with an
appropriate knot (see chapter Possibilities for adjustment)!
If you do not stick to this rule or in the event of a damaged control
line a loss of access to the brakes might result. The same can
happen when the toggle gets tangled around the brake pulley.
In such situations the first rule is: Don't panic! The ARCANE can
be controlled sufficiently without brakes. Simply steer using the
D-riser on the side in question. Since a stall will take place
prematurely, harsh manoeuvres should not be performed.
Because of its unproblematic launch behaviour and its good
handling the ARCANE is also suited for the use of a motorized
harness.
