A negative spin does not conform to the IKUMA 2 P ’s normal flight behaviour. Certain circumstances however, may provoke a negative spin To resume normal flight conditions, progressively and symmetrically (such as trying to turn when flying at very low air speed whilst applying release the brake line tension to regain air speed.
