Under the wing at the control frame apex
Check the control frame apex, and the hang
block bracket hardware (Fig. 31).
Check that the shackle of the sweep wires is
secured on the hook on the keel tube (Fig. 31).
Check the crossbar tensioning cables making
sure there are no kinks or twisted thimbles and
make sure there are no signs of wear.
Check the crossbar center channels assembly
including the sweep wires/X-bar junction and
the center bolt.
Visually inspect the crossbar tubes by sighting
along the length of the crossbar tubes looking
for any evidence of damage
.
Along the trailing edge, right wing: Same as for the left wing.
At the right tip: Same as for the left tip.
Along the right leading edge: Same as for the left leading edge.

7. SPEED TO FLY
The range of trim speed for the Still TL is 78 - 85 km/h (47 - 53 mph).
The range of the stall speed for the Still TL is 50 - 52 km/h (31 – 33 mph). The wing is stable at
the beginning of stall. While pushing out the base bar, the bar pressure is progressively
increase.
The Still TL, depending on the wing load, speeds up to 100 - 105 km/h (63 – 65 mph), being
essentially roll neutral, with no tendency to yaw. The bar pressure will increase progressively as
the speed increases.
WARNING
ALL SPEEDS ARE MEASURED WITH AEROS-2 TRIKE.
