Fly in turbulence using a minimum of brake and try to control the wing over your head
by flying actively. In that way you can avoid a single sided loss of your wing. However in
the event that you do lose a side of a wing, fold down, you should still maintain the di-
rection of your curve. Only after you have stabilized your wing in the curve, may you
also attempt to open the folded down wing, by lightly pumping the loose side.
When flying into hard or strong thermals do not brake, instead open up the wing, and
reduce your motor speed, so that you don’t get involved in a dynamic loss of lift.
Back off of the brakes when entering a strong thermal and reduce the motor rotations,
in order to avoid getting into a dynamic stall. In contrast, brake more strongly when ex-
iting the thermal and increase motor rotations, in order to avoid a possible front stall.
Landing (with Motor off)
The skywalk VENOM is simple to land. When making your final approach against
the wind, let the wing glide out in combination with light braking. When the wing has
reached a level of 1 meter over ground, increase angle of attack by increased braking,
and intercept the glider. When you have reached the minimum speed, pull the brakes
fully through.
In a strong headwind, apply the brakes sparingly. Only when you
have touched down and successfully landed should you allow the wing to stall
out carefully. Landing with steep curve changes in the final approach should absolutely
be avoided at all costs. (Danger of occilation)
Landing (with Motor running)
You may also want to land using the support of motor power.
The flight level height and speed can then be controlled with the help of your brakes
and motor torque to control the landing approach and touch down.
