For the Orca 5 we have chosen four-way
risers equipped with:
•
ELR (Easy Launch Riser) - system. It
is a specially marked A riser (with red
cover)
•
trimmer with replaceable (in case of
deterioration) regulation strap,
affecting the B, C and D risers.
For quick and easy recognition in
emergency, some of the risers are
distinguished with coloured covers as
follows:
•
A - red (used for launching)
•
A' – red (used for big ears),
•
B - yellow (used for B-stall),
•
D - blue (needed to keep the glider
down in strong wind – aborted
launch).
