Niviuk Artik 4 Deflations
Testing collapses on the Niviuk Artik 4 23m². Details: https://tbergmueller.wordpress.....com/2017/02/22/find
Some Remarks:
Frontstall (0:03): Starts to fly again on its own, yet a little break input is needed to open it again.
Asym. Collapse / Seitenklapper #1 (0:20) : A single bump of the break (applied early!) reopenes the glider perfectly.
Asymm. Collapse / Seitenklapper #2 (0 :45): Without input the glider goes to auto-rotation / spiral dive (trying to pump in the rotation expectedly did not work ;)). After letting it turn a bit, I did a minimal weightshift on the opposite side (1:06 , didn't even break), which stops the rotation. In straight flight recovery is easy ;)
Big ears (1:23): Easy and stable, you need to pump them out.
(1:45) Controlling pitch / roll is intuitive and easy.
