The "Sweet Spot" For Xc - Flow Paragliders Cosmos Power Series Manual

***IMPORTANT***
When flying in turbulent air, the shark nose aero foil and full reflex plan form will resist to reasonable levels of turbulence. If conditions deteriorate
and require pilot input to maintain control, then the glider should be returned to neutral trim where the brakes can be used to control pitch surges
and collapses.
Operation of brakes when the airfoil is in its FULL REFLEX configuration will reduce the inherent stability, therefore not recommended.

8. The "SWEET SPOT" for XC

When flying long distances or looking to maximize fuel efficiency / speed ratio, it is recommended to fly with the trimmers 30% released. Our "in
house" tests flying has shown "the sweet spot" to be 30% trimmers open, with many pilots showing an impressive increase in ground covered in
comparison to their previous wing of choice.
