Minimum speed:
stalls), you will find the minimum speed of the BI BETA. There is no
benefit in flying so slowly as the performance of the canopy becomes
mediocre, particulary with respect to the sink rate. The brake input
becomes physical and turning is difficult; the canopy also becomes
very sensitive to wind gradients. Raise your arms gradually to regain a
normal flying speed.
Parachutal stall:
from braking (the canopy will fly normally until going into a full stall)
neither will it become parachutal following a B line stall.
Closures:
the closures that may be found whilst flying in normal conditions. It is
controlled; apply a light countering to the harness and a gentle braking
to the side that is not deflated. If ever the canopy does not reopen
automatically, a generous brief pumping action will reopen the canopy.
Spiral Dive (360):
side until approx 50% and then maintaining this position. The speed of
the rotation increases and the pilot experiences the strong centifugal
force.
Raise the brake gradually to stop the spiral and then apply both brakes
to 30% to prevent a large dive.
B line stall:
strength of the pilot. The pilot and passenger have to pull on the B
risers. We recommand not to make B line stall.
Big ears:
connected downwards. The wing tips will come into big ears. When you
release the handles, it will automatically reinflate. Sink rate 4-5 m/s.

The BI BETA has a high propensity to reopen itself following
always preferable to pilot actively so that any movements of
the canopy do not become amplified thus impeding the
ability of the glider to fly.
To simulate a small asymmetric closure, pull down 1 or 2 outer
suspension lines connected to the front riser. The canopy will
reopen automatically with only a small tendency to turn. An
activ piloting will allow the direction of the canopy to be
This is achieved by gradually braking on one
