Here is my entry, you have the use of positive and negative flaps to fly faster and slower, the glide ratio should be about 1:60, there is no airbrakes ( no mods to make them fit into the wing). Ag 1 is the paracute. It cruses nicely with no flaps at around 60 mph but can go as low as 30. Rudder and ailerons are coordinated to help illiminate the adverse yaw effect.
