They come in different diameters of Kevlar and
Dyneema with sheathed cover. They must to be
inspected every 100 hours maximum.
In case of Brake lines, it was cut a little longer, so
every pilot can adjust it according to his personal
taste.
But you must always leave 10cm before the brakes
line starts acting in order to avoid trailing edge
deformation when the wing is fully accelerated. In case
the brake handle comes loose during flight or any
brake lines is cut you can use the C riser softly for
directional control instead of brake line.
5. Adjustable Brake Pulley Position
The brake line pulley position can be adjusted
according to pilot preference to suite the power unit’s
hang points height. There are 2 settings: Upper and
Lower. The upper setting (as set by the factory) is for
low hang point motors whilst the lower setting is for
units with higher hang points.
If you use the lower pulley, you must lengthen the
brake lines accordingly. Moving to the lower pulleys
requires the addition of 5cm to the overall brake line
length (measured from the mark on the brake line).
To change the pulley position, remove the brake line
