FLIGHT CONTROLS
Primary control system
The ailerons and elevator are driven by push-rods and the rudder is driven by control
cables. Elevator control forces can be compensated by means of a spring trim system.
The aileron and air brake control systems are automatically connected when the wing
is installed. However, the ACL (= strobe lights, optional) and position lights (optional)
must be connected manually. The elevator control system is not connected automati-
cally.
Elevator trim system
The trim lever with a green knob is located on the center console behind the throttle
quadrant. To trim the powered sailplane, unlock the knob by pulling it upwards, then
%
move it to the desired position. The knob is spring-loaded and locks when it is re-
leased.
