Extensive development work and numerous tests make the VELVET a very high Safety equipment ....................performance glider with maximum possible safety. Speed System ....................... The VELVET is designed for paramotoring, and will enable pilots to get maximum Flying operations ....................enjoyment.The Velvet is also suitable for paragliding. Checklist ........................
The glider is delivered with a standard set-up and its speed can reach 39 - 43 km/h The Velvet has been load and shock-tested and passed with a load corresponding to 8 G depending on the weight of the pilot and position of the trimmers. The brake-lines should of the maximum weight in flight 154 kg.
New glider check and before every flight check In additional to all the usual pre-flight checks, please pay particular attention to the items To fly faster than trim speed the VELVET is equipped with a foot operated original speed in the following checklist: system.
Motorized flight and towed flight Steering The Velvet was designed for paramotoring but is suitable for free flight and towed flight. Turns can be initiated using the brakes in two different ways. Turns with brakes...
Now pull down far enough to make the whole leading edge fall in (the further Basically the VELVET will re-open by itself from closures of up to 70% by turning of 180°. you pull, the more area folds in).
In extreme cases this can make the airflow break away from the upper released, the VELVET will usually fly normally of its own accord. Otherwise you have surface of the canopy even without the brakes being activated.
Exposure to UV degrades the fabric. A damp or wet stay in stable spiral dive. In open position the Velvet stops spiral diving by itself in 360 canopy must be air-dried in a shady place. Do not expose the glider to temperatures of degrees.
MANUAL FOR PARAGLIDER CHECKS Check-intervals Line length measurement All paragliders used in flight must be checked at least every 24 months. For paragliders Lines should be separated and each line measured under a tension of 5 kg. Measurement used by paragliding schools the period is 12 months. is made from the line karabiner to the canopy according to the DHV method.
