ABSTRACT:
A load-bearing paraglider system includes a load-bearing paraglider with a trailing edge, paraglider straps that connect the load-bearing paraglider with a control unit, and a load suspended on the load-bearing paraglider using load-bearing straps. At least one flaring strand is connected with the trailing edge for implementing control and curved flight maneuvers on the basis of activating the flaring strand using the force of the weight of the load. The control unit has a transmission unit with at least two load-bearing rollers for same direction rolling up of load-bearing straps or paraglider straps as well as at least one flaring strand roller for accommodating a flaring strand whereby the at least one flaring strand is rolled up on the allocated flaring strand roller. The load-bearing strap or the paraglider straps are rolled off in a predetermined direction of rotation with at least one flaring strand being rolled up in the same direction of rotation. An unlatching apparatus is provided for unlatching the transmission unit upon attaining a target altitude.
