The DAYTONA is not a glider designed for aerobatic manoeuvers!
Radical manoeuvres should be avoided. They have been done during
the numerous test flights but not outside the flying limitations of a
paraglider.
- wingovers with more roll than 45° on either side of the vertical axis.
- slowing and then releasing the controls producing pitching move-
ments greater than 30° on either side of the vertical axis.
- stalling manoeuvres.
- sudden turns at very low air speed, susceptible of degenerating into
flat spin or asymmetric stalls.
- collapses inducing manoeuvres using the risers.
Doing aerobatic flying beyond the limits set out hereof, should not
engage the manufacturer’s responsibility.
RADICAL MANOEUVRES
COLLAPSES
The reopening, on this model, is generally spontaneous. Even though the
likelihood of this scenario happening was not shown during the tests, it
cannot be excluded. After a massive collapse causing an immediate
downward turn, if no quick and precise correction is done, the wing could
enter an auto-rotation. The proper correction to make for such an incident
is to weight-shift on the inflated side of the wing, while braking moderately
on that same side to keep you flight trajectory straight. Once the rotation
has stopped, and if the wing reopening has not yet taken place, pump the
brake energetically on the collapsed side to reopen it. Be cautious not to
brake too deep on the open side of the wing to risk a stall.
A deflation, even partial, cannot be considered harmless and must lead to a prudent
immediate return to the landing zone.
