    Test flights are made only on a random basis.  On that score an approved ICARO dealer or teacher of the flight school must inflate a new ICARO paraglider in the wind or should carry out the first flight before the wing is handed over to you.

  • Page 7 The end control of all line lengths is documented for all paragliders produced by ICARO paragliders. The complete geometry of the lines is shown on the single line plan, which you find in the annex of the manual.
  • Page 8 Page 8 of 22 The more turbulent the weather conditions and when near the ground, the less acceleration should be used. Using the accelerator decreases the angle of attack and can make the glider more prone to collapse. Do not use the acceleration system and brakes at the same time! It is very dangerous to use both simultaneously as it can result in serious collapses.

    (aging correction) so that only the adjustment for flying at the lower limit is regulated by the TSO.The correction to the lines or any other repairs should only be carried out at an authorized ICARO centre.

    These subtle adjustments keep the glider flying smoothly. The high performance of your MAVERICK 3 is also during accelerated glide. When you use the speed system, be careful. Do not step too quickly because your...
  • Page 11: Turning

    Turning A combined steering technique is suitable for every situation. The MAVERICK 3 is agile and reacts to steering impulses quickly and directly. Strong, one sided pulling of the brakes brings the glider into an obvious side angle and the glider flies fast steep curves until spiral dive begins.
  • Page 12: B-Line-Stall

    The MAVERICK 3 will start to turn, speed up and then drop into a spiral. To keep the wing under control you must pull and release the inside brake. Exit slowly. Bring your body weight back to a neutral position and as soon as the wing levels out, apply the brakes gently.
  • Page 13: Deep / Parachute Stall

    Applying the brakes symmetrically will speed things up. Emergency Steering Should it not longer be possible to steer your MAVERICK 3, for example due to a broken line, the glider may be steered by gently pulling on either rear riser. We recommend for emergency control in the air to use the stabile line.
  • Page 14: Full Stall

    Page 14 of 22 Full Stall Spin and full stall are both dangerous and somewhat unpredictable exercises. Do not stall or spin your paraglider on purpose. To initiate a full stable stall, apply both brakes to maximum arm extension. The pilot will swing back under the canopy and finally the canopy will stabilize to a full stall.

    ICARO paragliders cannot be held responsible for any mishaps caused by intentional after sales changes done to the wing.  The MAVERICK 3 is a very strong paraglider. Flying all the descent exercise will not normally pose a structural problem but aerobatic training does accelerate the ageing process dramatically.
  • Page 16: Terms Of The Guarantee

     ICARO paragliders needs to be informed immediately after the discovery of a defect and the defective product must be sent to us for testing.
  • Page 17: Annex

    Technical specifications about your glider (type, serial number, size and year of production). Pleas call ICARO paragliders for information. Three week courses at ICARO paragliders, specified to a glider type together with a legal flight license are the necessary prerequisites for permission to inspect ICARO paragliders.
  • Page 18 General Remarks Any other repairs, corrections etc. to the general condition of the paraglider must be evaluated. A copy of the results of each inspection must be sent on to ICARO paragliders. The technician must report any unusual faults to ICARO paragliders within 3 days.
