How safe is the MENTOR 7?
In this video Theo de Blic shows the most safety-relevant maneuvers on the new MENTOR 7 Light (which apply for the standard version too, which will be released later).
A short comment: Theo is extremely positive about the passive safety of that wing. But keep in mind, that the MENTOR 7 is a high end EN B-wing and certainly requires active piloting and experience. But we are convinced that it is very docile for his category.
Theo points out one important thing: Many pilots overdo when trying to “repair” a real-life incident, causing even worse situations than before. Have his advice in mind: Let it fly!
Wie sicher ist der MENTOR 7?
In diesem Video zeigt Theo de Blic die sicherheitsrelevantesten Manöver mit dem neuen MENTOR 7 Light. (Was er sagt, gilt auch für die Standardversion gelten, die später auf den Markt kommt).
Ein kurzer Kommentar: Theo äußert sich extrem positiv über die passive Sicherheit des Schirms. Bedenkt trotzdem: Der MENTOR 7 ist ein High-B-Schirm. Er erfordert aktives Fliegen und Erfahrung. Aber wir sind überzeugt, dass er für seine Kategorie sehr gutmütig ist.
Auf einen wichtigen Punkt weist Theo hin: Viele Piloten greifen beim Versuch eine Störung zu „reparieren" zu stark ein und verursachen dadurch möglicherweise eine noch schlimmere Situationen als zuvor. Behalte daher seinen Rat im Hinterkopf: Lass ihn fliegen!

This wing truly incredible! Its time to conquer Dachstein mountains! Ahh, I need good weather! 😂

@gerhardhenke2435 Год назад

As I progressed from Mentor 1 to Mentor 5 I'm keen on moving on to this one! Thank you very much for this good video! 🙂🙃🙂

@Linuxhippy2 8 месяцев назад

how did you like it? I made the same step from Oryx -> Mentor 5 light. Of course performnance was way better, but somehow I felt a bit disconnected from the wing (more dampened than the M1 in both axis) so I changed it with a more talkative wing ...

@hochhinaus 2 года назад

Thanks for your videos. They really show what it is like to fly an EN-B glider.

@Linuxhippy2 8 месяцев назад

just let it fly and it will fix itself?

@Linuxhippy2 Always in calm air and never in turbulent air !!!

@Linuxhippy2 7 месяцев назад

@@sensai3425 yes exactly, this was my complaint. This video suggests the glider is safe for all pilot classes, which it is definitely not!

Amazing design!!!!

Excelent!

@mariopolzgutter1246 2 года назад

Theo, you almost go in the second of the accalerated frot follaps out of the accelerator, would it be different if you stay in for a second or more?

@turkeyphant 2 года назад

Exactly. Nobody would drop speedbar that quickly.

@johanneshavlicek8688 3 месяца назад

At the side collapse he gets out of the speedbar even at the same time pulling. Not a good test in my view.

@Ovalp Год назад

Thanks for this Nice vidéo. What’s happen in a stall if you don’t stabilize it (rear) but stall and hand’s up (mistake of an afraid pilot)?

@ParaglidingChronicles 2 года назад

Nice glider 👍🏼

@dalara_paraglider_design8156 2 года назад

Esto es increible

@andreasa7047 6 месяцев назад

Agree - Mentor 7 Light is a pretty safe wing for an High-EN-B glider. On the other hand this Wing loves rolling when accelerated so much that i am thinking about selling it again. Anyone with similar experience?

@wallenstein7338 Год назад

top video 👌👌👌 is there a chance U can test the PHI Maestro 2?

@pope_skymaster 2 года назад

Mentor 7 std will be my next wing...!!!

@David-vi6pe Год назад

effectivement j ai eu recemmment une tres grosse fermeture a l approche d un nuage une cascade d incident du a mon surpilotage et rien que le fait de laisser voler tout est rentré dans l ordre , bras haut et au contact suffit generalement !!

@pope_skymaster Год назад

Does M7 do SAT?

@safranpollen 2 года назад

Probefliegen , danach bestellen, realistischer Zeitraum ?

@johanneshavlicek8688 3 месяца назад

This test is bull. He gets out of the speedbar during, and even before the collapse. You can see it 100% in slomotion. How can NOVA support such a crappy show?

@NOVAPerformanceParagliders 3 месяца назад

Taking your feet of the speed bar should be everyone’s first reaction to a symmetrical or asymmetrical collapse during accelerated flight. Test pilots are not supposed to stay in the accelerator when they induce a collapse. His timing seems a little off on one manoeuvre but he repeats the collapse with better timing straight away. It is not easy to perform everything 100% accurately while talking to the camera so we think Theo is doing a pretty good job. We hope that Theo keeps supporting us in future and we will always support him as good as we can.

@johanneshavlicek8688 3 месяца назад

this test makes the wing look safer, than it is. Every pilot, that joined a siv knows, that you need to pull the wing down and then get out of the speedbar, for a real collapse. This test is a marketing gag, that can cost lifes by underestimating the wing.

@johanneshavlicek8688 3 месяца назад

and no, the timing did not get better.

@NOVAPerformanceParagliders 3 месяца назад

There seems to be a misunderstanding here. This is not an SIV. Theo’s idea was to replicate the certification process. He mentioned it at the start of the video.
