Launching
Your Space can take-o with both forward and reverse techniques.
Use forward technique when the wind is light, or there is no wind.
Move forward and your glider will start to inate. You must maintain a
constant pressure on the risers until the wing is overhead. Brake it a
little and launch.
Use reverse technique in light to strong winds
Pull the glider by its A-risers. When it is overhead, pull the brakes to
stop the glider, then turn and launch.
In Flight Characteristics
You can change speed by simultaneously pulling or releasing the
brakes or using accelerator. When brakes are pulled approximately
30 cm - you get minimum sink rate.
Speed control
Space has long brake travel, light brake pressure and turns very well.
It also has high resistance to deations in turbulence.
Maximum symmetric control travel is 50 cm.
