5. Lines
They come in different diameters of Kevlar and
Dyneema with sheathed cover. They must be inspected
every 150 hours maximum.
In the case of Brake lines, it was cut a little longer, so
every pilot can adjust it according to his personal taste.

deformation when the wing is fully trim opened. In
case the brake handle comes loose during flight or any
brake line is cut you can use the D riser softly for
directional control instead of the brake line.
If you feel it is necessary to adjust the brake-line
length to suit physical build, we recommend you
ground handling the glider before you test-fly it and
carry out this process after every 20mm of adjustment.
6. Trimmers (Accelerator)
The DUET PRO is supplied with a trim riser set. The
‘neutral’ or standard position is when the trimmers are
pulled all the way down and A/B/C/D riser lengths are
equal. We recommend performing landing and take-off
with the trimmers closed. With the trimmers closed,
the DUET PRO will reliably inflate without any
overshooting.
As a result, the take-off characteristics are very
smooth, straightforward, easy, forgiving, and require
