Caution: Even though the SIGMA 8 has a high degree of sta-
bility in accelerated flight you should only use as much
speedbar as you feel comfortable with.
Info: According to the table for best glide you should fly to an
expected 0.4 m/s climb with 30% accelerate, and to a 1.3 m/s
one with 80%. This only applies if you can actually get all the
way to the next thermal in the accelerated condition.
Info: Although flying into a headwind (15-20 km/h) gives you
the feeling that your gliding performance is being badly affect-
ed, bear in mind that strong sink (more than 2 m/s) has a
relatively stronger adverse affect.
Adjusting the speed system
We recommend that the SIGMA 8’s speed system is correctly adjust-
ed before the first flight. The SIGMA 8’s riser system should be con-
nected to the harness speed lines by means of Brummel hooks.
The SIGMA 8 speed system can, with the help of the SPI, be adjust-
ed so that the whole speed system travel can be used. The system
is correctly set when pushing the first speed step gives you the 30%
position, and pushing the second achieves 80% accelerate. If set up
Example:
SIGMA 8/25
Neutral position
Position 30%
Position 80%
