  • Page 5: Risers

    The risers are equipped with accelerator, that increases the speed range of the glider. Accelerator travel is 12 cm for S, M and L sizes. Muscat-3 does not have trimmers and any other adjustable or re- movable or variable device.

    Practise ground handling a lot! It will help you feel your glider bet- ter. In Flight Characteristics Muscat-3 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 60 cm for S size, 70 cm for M and L sizes.
  • Page 7: Turn Control

    When you need to turn fast, you should swing Muscat-3 in the op- posite direction and then pull as hard as needed the internal brake.
  • Page 8: B-Stall

    8-10 m/sec. In order to return to normal flight sim- ply release the B-risers and your Muscat-3 will get out of the B-stall with a small front dive. You can use the brakes once the horizontal speed is gained.
  • Page 9: Landing

    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 Muscat-3 in stall at a height of about 0.2 -- 0.5 m and the horizontal speed is zero.

    After this usually comes a front dive with a possible front deflation. Just because Muscat-3 warns the pilot about stalling by increasing the brake load, it is highly unlikely for you to enter it unexpectedly.
  • Page 11: Packing Your Glider

    - Keep it away from water and other liquids - Do not let the front edge hit the ground - If wet dry Muscat-3 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 ruck- sack too tightly.

    100 hours of flying time (whichever comes first); Those inspection must be made by manufacturer or dealer. If damaged, your Muscat-3 must be repaired by manufacturer, or dealer. Small holes in Skytex may be repaired with sticky rip-stop tape.
