You can make your choice via the WSC’s push
button. To set the mode follow the steps accord-
ingly chapter 2.5, but enter the procedure when the
choice
is shown within the unit information
sequence.
The procedure is designed in a way that it should
not be possible to do it unintentionally and once
done it stays until you change it again.
After main deployment you probably will y with
a low vertical speed for a while. During that time
you open your zippers and collapse your slider
before you grab your toggles and y your canopy.
This phase at set brakes is likely long enough and
slow enough to fulll the WSC criteria for chang-
ing from Wing Suit Status to Canopy Status.**
If your ight scenario during that phase has not met
the needed conditions (you hear no signal) then
reduce your vertical speed by ying half brakes
until you hear the melodic sound.
In the unexpected case, that absolutely no signal
appears, then just don`t y aggressive but smooth
below 1500 feet***. Don`t do sharp 90’s or more.
Just land smooth and safely.
Once you descend with less than approx 19 mph
(8.5 m/s) but more than 5.6 mph (2.5 m/s) for more
than 10 seconds (this duration can be altered. See
chapter 4.4.6) between the altitude of approx.
6500 feet above the ground and approx. 1500 feet
above the ground the WSC should change over to
the Canopy Status.
The Canopy Status can either be the Expert mode
or the Speed mode, just as you have selected.
It is rare but possible for a WSC to switch over
to the Canopy Status before your exit. That hap-
pens when the aircraft’s ight scenario simulates
the switch over criteria from Wing Suit Status to
Canopy Status.
Then the difference to the „normal“ situation is,
that your WSC functions as a usual Expert or Speed
Inappropriate mode can result in false activation /
no activation.
Using an inappropriate mode is most likely to injure or
kill you or others.
Always use the unit in the appropriate mode.
Never, under any circumstances and for any reason,
use the device in an inappropriate mode.
