result in a stall due to an uneven airflow over the leading edge. This
process has been related to high levels of porosity in the glider‘s cloth.
Whatever the cause, a full stall can be either symmetrical or a spin.
In both cases the pilot has two possible courses of action:
IIf the full stall happens above 100 m it is strongly recommended to
execute the stall recovery supposing the pilot is familiar with the process
of such an action (e.i. a complete execution of the full stall, stabilization of
the wing and lifting hands progressively to come back to a normal flight).
If the full stall happens below 100 m or if the pilot is unfamiliar with the stall
recovery, the reserve should be deployed immediately.
10) Flying Without Brakes
If a brake line or pulley breaks it is possible to fl y the ARGOS using the
D risers (rear risers). The movements must be well controlled as the
deformation of the wing when pulling on the D risers is greater than that
produced by using the brakes.
Tip:
Practice this way of steering to be prepared in case of a brake failure!
11) Comments on Testing Procedures
All maneuvers were carried out over water in a stable air mass with standard
temperature, humidity and pressure. They were carried out by professional
pilots trained to react to any problem in the most appropriate manner.

.
12) Adjustment of the harness
For test fl ights the pilots used ABS harnesses with the following set-up:
We recommend adjusting the harness in a very similar way to the test
adjustment. Excessive cross-bracing increases the risk of twisting the risers.
A looser setting will result in a tendency to lean towards the collapsed side.
Lower hang points reduce the roll-stability of your harness and can slow down
the reopening of asymmetric collapses. Higher hang points (+ 2–4 cm) have
no infl uence on infl ight safety and can therefore be tolerated.
