I have just completed a flight test of the Pioneer doing stall and spin
attempts. With the stick all the way back the airspeed slows to 20 mph with about a 200 ft/min sink rate. The wing will not break nor will it go into a spin or dive. In the spin tests I brought the glider up to the 20 mph ( stick fully back) then hit the rudder hard..... well it just did a slow rotation in what ever direction the rudder was deflected. Next I did cross control stall and spin attempts... again there was nothing I could do to provoke it to spin. I could not get a wing to drop! All of this is now recorded on video. For more details see the web site.Look under the Marske Pioneer IId http://www.continuo.com/marske -- Marske Flying Wings http://www.continuo.com/marske |
