Section 4
Setting up the Hybrid Sport and test-flying
launch behaviour may deteriorate if the
brake lines are shortened too much.
WARNING
If the brake lines are too short, the
following risks could arise:
•
there could be an early stall
•
the mini wing does not launch
well and there is a risk of deep
stall
•
the mini wing exhibits dangerous
behaviour in extreme flying
the trailing edge of the mini wing is
braked in accelerated flight which, in an
extreme case, could cause a frontal
collapse
Brake knots
The overhand knot and bowline knot shown
below are the most suitable for connecting
the brake line to the brake handle.
