Adjustment options
The CONNECT RACE LITE has various
adjustment options so that pilots can
adjust the harness according to their
particular wishes and preferences.
Pilots should take their time in doing
this because it will provide a high level
of comfort!
We recommend that you hang the
harness in a simulator (or frame etc.)
when making the adjustments.

PLEASE NOTE
Use your usual loading (reserve
parachute, drinking water etc.) when
adjusting the CONNECT RACE LITE
to ensure that it is adjusted
appropriately for you.

When delivered, the CONNECT RACE
LITE is adjusted to a standard
ergonomic setting, apart from
adjustments for pilot height. We
recommend for your first flight that
you alter only settings related to
height, and leave the other settings
unchanged, as this set-up has proved
to be suitable for most pilots.

If you wish to alter the other settings,
you can easily return to the factory
settings by adjusting the straps so that
the red stitching is in line with the
buckle as shown in the picture above.
Please select the size of your CONNECT
RACE LITE according to your height
rather than its seat width. Unlike a
“seated” harness, the height of the
back support determines a good level
of comfort and correct flight position. It
is therefore important to choose the
correct size, paying more attention to
the height of the back than the width
of the seat.
