  • Page 2: Technical Description

    Together with the optimized zigzag 3D shaping, a new level of surface quality is achieved. The ALLEGRO X-alps is located in the lower C area with a designed aspect ratio of 6. This follows our strategy of realizing small and easily manageable levels between the individual classes.

    First flight Each PHI paraglider must be flown in and inspected by a PHI dealer prior to handout to the customer. This first flight must be entered together with the date and pilot on the type table sheet of the paraglider (in the intake of the middle cell).
  • Page 4 weight shi , but the pilot is less shaken by turbulences. A competent flight school can help with individual expert advice. Legal weight range The ALLEGRO light is only approved for operation within a certain weight range. It is the total weight, including pilot, paraglider and harness (and other equipment).

    Flying turns A curve is an interaction of inner brake, outer brake and weight shi ing. The art is the right dosage. The ALLEGRO light is characterized by a sensitive handling. Small brake inputs are enough to fly precise turns. The ALLEGRO light loves the modern, dynamic thermal flight.

  • Page 6: Asymmetric Collapse

    If the ears do not fill completely by themselves, the filling can be achieved by a short brake input. It is important to ensure that it is only a short and limited brake input, or that the brakes are released immediately. B-Stall The B-stall is initiated by symmetrical pulling down (about 20cm) of the B-risers.

  • Page 7: Frontal Collapse

    Such a collapse can only affect a small part of the span and the ALLEGRO light will show no significant reaction. For larger collapses with more than 50% of the span affected, the glider shows a more dynamic reaction: Due to the increased drag of the folded wing, the ALLEGRO light will start to turn to the side of the collapse. At the same time, the glider pitches forward as a result of the smaller loaded wing surface and therefore higher wing load and needed airspeed.

  • Page 8: Winch Launch

    “brummel hooks” or the ball / loop system. Overview of available risers: https://phi-air.com/project/risers/ In flight, the ALLEGRO light can now be accelerated by pushing the speed pedal, which results in reduction of the angle of attack and as a consequence an increase of the airspeed.
  • Page 9 Attention: Braking during the accelerated flight not only costs a lot of gliding performance, but as well increases instability and may lead to collapses! Always step from the speed bar first, then pull the brakes! To turn, simply shi weight, or push the speed bar asymmetrically. (If you push the right side further, the wing will perform a le turn.) Geometric data of the accelerator If the entire available accelerator travel is used, the A-risers shorten by 15cm to 20cm compared to the C-risers, depending on size:...

  • Page 10: Service And Maintenance

    Exceptions are the replacement of lines as well as the repair of small cracks (up to 5 cm, which do not affect seams) or holes in the cloth, which can be repaired with the original PHI repair set. A small set of sticking cloth is supplied with the wing.

    Especially in the cold season, this stress can be life-threatening for animals. Disposal The plastic materials used in a paraglider require proper disposal. Please return your used wing to PHI: it will be disassembled and disposed by us. PHI, a brand of the Papesh GmbH...
