Very disturbing

Looks like the exact same thing as the viper xc collapse. The vipe Xc specifically says not to open trimmers past the green neutral line and use speedbar. The carve 2 manual doesnt explicitly say that. The carve says to exercise extreme caution when fully trimmed out on speedbar. Lesson is quit dumping trims all the way and using speedbar. Been too many other people take collapses in the same configuration. The extra speed isnt worth it.

On his normal (non power) para-gliders Gin trims the tips fast. Gives them a nice feel in the air and nice handling. You get the odd tip collapse though. It can be disconcerting if you are of a nervous disposition.

Simple solution, get a Driftair where its designed to live on bar ;) I kid, I kid.

It looks like you pulled your tip steering right before the collapse??

Your thought process on when you can use the brakes isnt the most correct. They recommend not using the brakes when trimmed out so that you dont take collapses easily in turbulence but if you do take a collapse with the trims out, then its time to use the brakes to re-inflate the glider and avoid the ground. Dont waste time pulling trims in and then finding the brakes after a collapse. Just because they say you can use brakes when trimmed out doesnt mean thats completely safe to do. Anytime you are trimmed out past around 50% and pulling brake, you are making the glider very easy to collapse. Also don't use full speed on this glider!

I have a Freeride 2 and a Viper XC and go full bar all them all the time (never low altitude). I've never had any issue on either of those wings. I just got the Carve 2, yesterday. Unlikely I'll go full bar and trim out on it, though. I don't know that I trust it.

Did you get replacement risers? Those look like the older ones.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm not a PPG pilot but a PG pilot, and I'm always at awe on how much PPG pilots "get away with". Don't take it the wrong way please, but in PG, we naturally seek turbulent weather (thermals or strong wind for dynamic lift), so letting go of brakes fully trimmed / speedbar is very alien. We are also thought to use the rear risers to keep a bit of pressure on the wing to allow to react to developing collapses early. These small tip collapses happen quite often, and they should generally be a non-event.

Would be nice to have a 360 camera for situations like this. Glad you're okay.

Thank you for share, ours point of safety are important.❤❤❤ reading and learning and doing is a big difference hahahaaa, never argue knowledge. Happy flying bro.

you f*** crazy! No brakes in hands!!!

Lol crazy Karl cracks me up, great dude!

Do you think this would be a great second wing as I’m currently flying a bgd magic it’s bloody slow and boaty!

What trim settings to you use for take-offs and landings? No wind vs Wind ?

great.... bravoo

Moore handy😂

What is most fun to fly? Carve 20 or Rpm2 20? I have flown almost all the exciting wings except the Rpm2. The Carve is my favorite so far. I like your videos especially for your trims in speeds.

You said when it happened you didn't have brakes in your hands (even in the right hand - 13:43 ), but you did (10:37). Because you actually was making a right turn on full trim out, very probably on the speedbar as well, and in the bumpy weather conditions. You must have lost the toggle temporarily. So the advice is obvious: no brakes on full trim out (let alone on the speedbar) - use the tip steering. (Or put it other way around: no turns on speedbar) It had been an excellent decision earlier to make this test having enough altitude! Also: need to fly faster? - buy a delta or a ULA. Best Regards and thanks for the video! (Just noticed it has been a year since...)

I like that chromed Vortex aero (?) exhaust.

I fly 2 liners XC and then I’m hands off the breaks I know I’m taking xtra risk. Good job having altitude when hands off or it would truly be a crash video

Global cause it not to wanna turn on It.Got wet in the rain and after that it did not want to turn on

How do you rate the pap tinox. Currently have an older model pap and looking for an upgrade. Trying to decide between new pap or maverick.

Any tips for others that want to self-train?

Hej, dzięki Twojemu filmowi udało mi się ustawić gaźnik! wielkie dzięki. Before:kzbin.infoo0VSj4YjIO4 after:kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3e5aaNpftt3bNU

This is what Anthony Vella's crash video would have looked like if he had a safe cushion of altitude.

hi. just wondering how long have you been flying paramotor? from your wing experience what wings have you flown? what is your wing you fly .. now? ill just check your site out now.hmm less then 2 years flying experience. please check my site out.🙃

So the title goes this wing tried to kill me yet when shit goes wrong all you say is bad idea, bad idea, bad idea??? I believe we know who's at fault here. Thumbs down

I'm selling my Scout Carbon One with factory R to buy a PAP. I'm so excited to get it

Looks like You were pulling right brake. You were in a right turn the whole time as your glider was turning to the right while applying bar. In theory a reflex glider becomes more collapse resistant when accelerated, not less. I doubt it was the weather. Hands off those brakes brotha.

never underestimate humane stupidity...

Getting more power higher RPM wears the motor quicker, it’s sort of taking it as far lean as possible. At least if you’re not doing competitions is it really necessary to go to max lean? To make engine last longer running smooth as possible closest to rich side wouldn’t that be healthier for the engine not worrying about RPM’s so much?

May I ask where you got the adjustment tool seen at 7:31? I searched Amazon for something similar without luck.

I want to know why the adjustment they don't want you to touch is the long adjustment screw and the low jet, which you need to adjust when changing LZ altitudes or seasonal pressure changes, is short? Seems like they should be the other way. Fortunately, my motor is running perfectly with just a small low jet adjustment.

Glad you had the altitude and made it through alive

Ozone wings manual specifically warn against applying brakes while using speedbar. Recommend you use the C-riser instead because too much brake will cause a collapse while using the speedbar. I can't tell in the video, but it looks like you pulled right brake while on speedbar. In slow-mo, your feet are up and you have right brake pulled...plus the speedbar is asymmetric making the problem worse. I think your collapse may be the result of not understanding the specifics of the wing. Based on your comments, I don't think you usually fly Ozone wings and have not learned the manufacturer's recommendations, especially the part on speedbar use. Different wings behave differently and jumping on an unfamilier wing with zero training, research, or browsing the manual and doing advanced things is asking for trouble. In no way was this a failure of the wing. This was the result of operating the wing outside the manufacturer's recommendations.

pilot errors. live and learn or learn and live.

Hola sabes cuál es la diferencia entre walbro mpe090 to mfr090 ?

Great video Travis number 2 you look so alike your brother thank you.

Was that a motor out or a wouldn’t restart? Sounded like a starter running continuously for a minute at 8:20 seconds into the flight

What's that watch you're wearing called, I want one. Also just ordered this wing, gold 24m. Can't wait !

Even the expression "hold my phone/beer ... " doesnt apply here. Staying cool as a cucumber with that collapse!

What watch do you use?

how much do you weigh??

The title of the video is really wrong. Respectfully, the responsability is on pilot s side, fully. It is an unstable day, very much so, I would expect thermal activity pretty strong, and not very organized at that altitude. I wouldn let go of my brakes for any reason, and therefore know what is happening with the pressure of the wing. If you are not properly trimmed, plus playing with accelerator and phone, is a very good formula for collapse. Did you do the right thing, after collapse? Well you didn t make things worse, but that is about it. Reading yo ur own comments I would suggest a change in attitude, if you want to fly safer. It is a very instructing video, though. At least for many of us. Thanks for that, good luck.

What was the vario you were wearing on your wrist?

That wing didn't nearly kill you it saved you.

If my weight is 125kg(paramotor, me +10l fuel,what's the best size wing to get ?

I have had a vantage 2 for the past 3 years,would this wing be the next step up ?

Dude, nice video, and thanks for the share ! In my opinion, you were taking too many risks : look at the sky : it's smoking ! ... You can expect strong thermals and turbulence at anytime with tis weather ! And you were flying low (I would say less than 1000 feet), you were flying accelerated, un-trimmed... and with your pone in your left hand, and your right hand out of the toggle ... what could possibly go wrong ? ;) The wing is NOT dangerous... you were taking some risks, and you had a great reaction !
