Thank you for choosing SC Space! This manual will help you to get maximum information about your glider. This is information about the design of the Space, advice how to use it best and how to care for it to ensure it has a long life. The manual also includes technical specifica- tions and line plans.

There are special handles on the C-riser, that have to be used for steering in accelerated flight. Space does not have trimmers and any other adjustable or removable or variable device. You can find risers drawings at the end of this manual.
Pull the glider by its A-risers. When it is overhead, pull the brakes to stop the glider, then turn and launch. In Flight Characteristics Space has long brake travel, light brake pressure and turns very well. It also has high resistance to deflations in turbulence. Maximum symmetric control travel is 50 cm.
In Flight Characteristics Turn control In order to make Space turn with a minimum sink and radius while pulling the internal brake you should pull very slightly the external one too. Use weightshift to decrease the spiral radius. If the thermal flow is narrow and strong, increase the tilt and the rotation speed by releas- ing the external brake.
In small winds, when you have 1-2 meters to the ground, you should pull the brakes gently to your arms’ full length, so that you put your Space in stall at a height of about 0.2 -- 0.5 m and the horizontal speed is zero.
That is why you should be careful not to pull the brake too hard to avoid stall. Therefore, if there is a reserve of altitude and space, you can not to compensate the rotation - Space will take some speed, pressure inside the canopy will grow and help to open inflated part of the wing.
In flight damage Estimate the damage. If a brake has untied - no problem as Space can be steered well by weight shift and pulling the back risers. Even if the damage allows for a sustainable controlled flight, you should land as soon as possible.
- Keep it away from water and other liquids - Do not let the front edge hit the ground - If wet dry Space in shade. If soaked in salty water, rinse the glider thoroughly in non-salty water - Keep your glider away from fire - Do not put anything heavy on your glider, do not pack it in a rucksack too tightly.
100 hours of flying time (whichever comes first); Those inspection must be made by manufacturer or dealer. If damaged, your Space must be repaired by manufacturer, or dealer. Small holes in Skytex may be repaired with sticky rip-stop tape. Attention please!
