Rucksack
As standard, your wing is supplied with a specially designed bag that is light and comfortable. It features
a padded hip belt, ergonomic adjustable shoulder straps and extra pockets to store keys, accessories
and all those extra bits. Its large volume allows you to store all of your equipment whilst distributing the
weight for comfortable hiking. We have a large range of bags and you can choose from any of them at
the time of order.
Brake Lines
The brake line lengths have been set carefully during testing. We feel it is better to have slightly long brake
lines and to fly with a wrap (one turn of the handle around the hand). However, if you do choose to adjust
their length please keep in mind the following:
• Ensure both main brake lines are of equal length.
• If a brake handle has been removed, check that its line is routed through the pulley when it is replaced.
• When the brakes are fully released in flight, the brake lines should be slack. There must be a substantial
bow in them to guarantee no deformation of the trailing edge when accelerated.
• There must be a minimum of 5-10cm of free play before the brakes begin to deform the trailing edge.
This prevents the trailing edge from being deformed when using the speed system.
Risers
The Mantra M7 has been designed with 3 risers per side. The A risers are covered with coloured webbing
for easy identification and split into two - the smaller riser, holding only the outermost A line, is for an easier
application of big ears.
The risers feature attachments for a foot operated accelerator system, they do not feature trimmers or any
other adjustable devices.
The M7 features a new riser control system for full control whilst accelerated. Acting on both the B and
C risers, this new innovative system offers direct, efficient angle of attack control - without deforming the
profile. The intuitive feel and feedback from the risers allows the pilot to increase the solidity of the wing
whilst accelerated in turbulent air.
IMPORTANT
In the unlikely
event of a brake line
snapping in flight, or
a handle becoming
detached, the glider
can be flown by
gently pulling the rear
risers (C-risers) for
directional control.
