THEREFORE DO NOT USE THE SPEEDSYSTEM IN TURBULENT CONDI-
TIONS, CLOSE TO THE GROUND OR NEAR OTHER AIRSPACE USERS!
NEVER RELEASE THE BRAKE HANDLES!
DON’T APPLY BRAKE WHEN FULLY ACCELERATED!
SHOULD YOU HAVE A COLLAPSE, RELEASE THE SPEED SYSTEM IMME-
DIATELY, TO ENABLE THE GLIDER TO RETURN TO STANDARD TRIM AND
THEN RECOVER WITH CORRECT PILOT INPUT AS
IN A NORMAL COLLAPSE.
DO NOT USE THE SPEEDSYSTEM IN ANY EXTREME MANOEUVRES!
Landing:
The NOVA IBEX is easy to land. The final leg of the landing approach must be
into the wind. During this final glide the paraglider should be decelerated
slowly and at approximately one meter above the ground, according to condi-
tions, the pilot should ”flare” the canopy. The glider may climb again, gaining
height, if too much brake is used too early.
Strong wind landings require little brake. Do not apply full brake before the pilot
is safely on the ground.
The final glide during the landing approach should be straight and not marked
by steep or alternating turns as these can result in a dangerous pendulum ef-
fect near the ground.
Towing:
The NOVA IBEX has no special towing characteristics, although a relatively low
angle of attack and thus low tow tension should be maintained during launch
and the initial part of the tow.
Motored Flight / Aerobatics:
Contact the manufacturer or importer for the current legality of motorized flight.
The NOVA IBEX is not designed to be used for aerobatics.
