8.2.6 BRAKE CONTROL LEVERS
The gyroplane is equipped with a brake system fitted to the main wheels. The system can be
controlled by two levers.
1. Main brake lever:
to apply the brakes pull the lever backwards. The braking action is
proportional to the pull applied on the lever.
2. Parking brake lever:
to apply the brakes pull the lever backward. The braking action is
proportional to the pull applied on the lever. To release the parking brake, lift up the top section of
the lever and move the lever forward.
8.2.7 DIRECTION CONTROLS
The control pedals operate the rudder as well as the front wheel, thus allowing steering whilst
taxiing.
In particular, a pressure on the right pedal will cause right yaw/turn, a pressure on the left pedal
will cause left yaw/turn.
8.2.7.1 PEDAL POSTION ADJUSTMENT
It is possible to adjust the pedal position to the height of the pilot. The procedure is the following:
- Extract pin (1) and move the pedal (2) to the desired position corresponding to one of the
positioning holes on the pedal
- Re-insert pin (1) back into its position
