Stall
Parachutal stall
Dynamic / Full Stall
The first step of a stall is the deep stall. The forward speed is
close to zero and the glider descends with the canopy open.
The MANX has no tendency whatsoever to remain in a deep
stall. In the event of a deep stall not immediately ceasing by itself
due to unusual circumstances, push the A-risers forward gripping
approximately one hands-breadth below the line link. This will
shorten them until the canopy has taken up speed again.
We urge you not to pull one of the brakes as this may lead to
spinning.
If you pulled the brakes further down whilst parachuting, the
canopy would tilt backwards while deflating at the same time.
This is what you take advantage of when landing: The canopy is
stalled dynamically - stall and ground contact occur
synchronously.
In every other situation the full stall is an unpredictable and
dangerous flight configuration, which should not be flown
intentionally.
Since the MANX provides very long brake distances up to the full
stall point, an unintentional dynamic stall can be excluded to a
large extent.
Caution: Never release brakes out of the backward tilt at the
beginning of the full stall! You run the risk of the canopy
accelerating below yourself which would result in contact with the
canopy or even falling into the canopy.
In the stalled condition, the MANX performs a strong flapping
movement with the outer wings. The effect of this movement is
transferred to the pilot via the brakes. Safe recovery is performed
smoothly and with medium speed out of a forward movement of
the canopy. Here, the brakes must be released fully, in order to
allow the glider to regain speed. In rare cases a frontal or
asymmetric deflation can occur (see above).
