  • Page 2 WITHOUT PROPER INSTRUCTION FROM A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTOR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO YOURSELF AND BYSTANDERS. DAVINCI GLIDERS are carefully manufactured and inspected at the factory. Please use the glider only as described in this manual. Do not make any modifications to the glider.

  • Page 6 DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 3. Introduction and Pilot Target The MAMBO is the result of a dedicated effort of Davinci R&D team. A totally new and innovative design that has never been seen before, you can experience high stability, handling, and effective/maximum lift force in thermal, as well as glide ratio.
  • Page 7: Accelerator System

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 5. Risers The MAMBO has been designed with 2 risers system. The A1 riser is covered with RED webbing, to allow for easy identification. The A risers are split into two, the smaller riser - holding only the outermost A line - is A2 and has been designed this way to make applying big ears easily.

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 8. Pre-flight check To know yourself with the glider it is a good idea to perform practice inflations and ground handling in advance. You should have no difficulties flying the MAMBO for the first time in suitable conditions, but as with all new equipment.
  • Page 9: In Flight Characteristics

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 10. In flight characteristics MAMBO has the best stable glide performance in a normal position with no any brakes. The minimum sink rate is achieved by applying approx. 15% of the brakes. When using more than 30% of the brakes, the aerodynamics and the performance of the glider are likely to deteriorate and the effort to manoeuvre will increase quickly.
  • Page 10: Frontal Collapse

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 11.2 Frontal collapse The profile of the MAMBO has been designed to widely tolerate extreme changes in the angle of attack. A symmetric collapse may occur in heavy turbulent conditions, on entry or exit of strong thermals or lack of adapting the use of the accelerator to the prevailing air conditions.
  • Page 11: Descent Techniques

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 11.6 B stall Traditional B-line stalls are not possible with 2 liners glider like MAMBO. Pulling the B lines firmly will result in a full stall. Do not do it. 11.7 Cravat If the tip of your wing gets stuck in the lines, this is called a cravat. Due to the large amount of drag, cravats can turn your wing into a spiral dive very quickly.
  • Page 12: Spiral Dive

    Be sure to attach to both sides of the canopy for symmetric deflations. Davinci Gliders would like to remind you that SIV manoeuvres should be learnt under the supervision of a qualified instructor and always used with caution.
  • Page 13: Maintenance And Cleaning

    DAVINCI GLIDERS / MAMBO 15. Packing your MAMBO Spread the MAMBO completely out on the ground. Separate the lines to the each side. The MAMBO must be folded cell to cell to keep the plastic reinforcement at the leading edge lie flat on each other and don’t get bent.
  • Page 14 Do not leave marked tracks and do not leave rubbish behind. Do not make unnecessary noise and respect sensitive biological areas. The materials used on a paraglider should be recycled. Please send old Davinci gliders back to us Davinci Gliders offices. We will undertake to recycle the glider.
