NOTEThe Mojo PWR is certified in accelerated flight with the speed bar only and the trimmers set in the standard or slowest position. Releasing the trimmers invalidates any flight certification. For un-powered flight and valid certification the trimmers must be pulled to the slow position and locked in place using the D ring.

IMPORTANTA bad preparation on launch, aerobatic flying, flying a wing of too high a level or in conditions too strong for your ability, are the main causes of cravats.
IMPORTANTOnly a few cms of input from your brakes can maintain your wing in the stall. Always release your wraps if you have taken them!
WARNINGUncoordinated wingovers can lead to large asymmetric collapses and cravats, therefore they should never be executed near the ground.
IMPORTANTNever fly in the rain or with a wet glider

IMPORTANT: Do NOT lay the wing flat on the ground before packing the glider, this will cause abrasion damage to the top surface as you pull the glider towards the middle. ALWAYS pack from a mushroom or lift the wing off the ground when gathering the wing and grouping the leading edge.
IMPORTANT: Do not fold the glider in the centre, you will bend the plastics, instead pack the wing with a full concertina method from tip to tip before packing into the stuff sac.
