Dudek Nucleon WRC, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 26 / 44

CAUTION: See the PARACHUTAL STALL chapter. All rapid descent
techniques should be practiced in smooth air and only with sufficient
altitude only ! Full stalls and spins are to be avoided as recovery
procedures, of the extreme manoeuvres, since irrespective of paraglider
type they may have dangerous consequences!
BY FAR THE BEST TECHNIQUE IS SAFE AND CORRECT FLYING, SO
THAT YOU WILL NEVER NEED TO DESCEND RAPIDLY!
3.5 AEROBATICS
Nucleon was not designed to do any aerobatics.
3.5.1 WING OVER
You make a wingover by performing a series of consecutive, alternating turns
with growing bank angle. Too much banking connected with some flaws in co-
ordination and execution can evoke pretty dynamic collapse.
CAUTION: Steep turn with bank angle over 60 degrees is a prohibited
aerobatic manoeuvre!
3.6 EXTREME MANOEUVRES
CAUTION! EXTREME FLYING MANOEUVRES SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED
OUT DURING SAFETY TRAINING COURSES (SIV, INSTABILITY TRAINING)
UNDER PROPER GUIDANCE! WHILE PROVOKING OR EXITING REAL
SITUATIONS THERE IS DANGER THAT YOUR ACTIONS WILL PROVE TOO
QUICK OR TOO STRONG, SO YOU SHOULD ALWAYS EMPLOY GOOD
JUDGMENT, STAY CALM AND TAKE MEASURED ACTIONS.
Since all actions required to exit or prevent dangerous situations on
Nucleon are typical and pilots flying this wing should already have
proper experience, we are going to describe only the characteristic
features of the Nucleon. Description of standard methods dealing with
extreme situations can be found in textbooks.
3.6.1 ONE SIDED COLLAPSE
Even 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
Nucleon on course. Under normal conditions with collapses up to 50% of the
wingspan, Nucleon will reinflate instantly and spontaneously. If it will not
happen, you should aid this process by application of brake on the collapsed
side.
3.6.2 FRONTAL COLLAPSE
The reflex profile of the Nucleon makes it practically impossible, especially at
higher speeds. During tests we succeeded in creating this situation only with
fully closed trimmers and using special measures. Such forced collapses can
lead to extremely deep collapses, so recovery will require decisive pilot action
