    •   Counter-brake slightly on the side of the paraglide that is still inflated to 

         stop it turning away and to stabilize it. 

    •   Counter-brake just enough that the paraglider

 

continues to fly straight ahead. 

    •    If the wing has not yet self-recovered, pump with the brake on the side that 

         has collapsed in order to open it, making use of the full brake travel. 
 

WARNING!

  Counter-braking too strongly can result in a stall on the inflated side. 

 

 
 

TAKE-OFF PROCEDURE 

 

-

 

Line up the TRIKE-FLASH with the wind direction 

-

 

Spread the SWING “Powerplay STING 140” paraglider behind the trike 

-

 

Connect correctly all the lines to the Trike  

-

 

Pull forward the Trike until the lines are straight 

-

 

Avoid to start with the wing too close, this may receive a dash that  reducing its lifetime, as well 
as to an overloading of the push rods: Their steel cables do not support horizontal loads but only 
vertical ! 

When you are ready, check the  wind again (always take off and land against the wind!), hold the 

throttle handgrip in the hand, check the cable is free and safe, and both brake handles into hands. 

Start the  engine , give gas gradually and watch the paraglider movement, if the paraglider doesn't come 
up symmetrically correct it immediately with the brake, if it is not longer possible abort the take-off! 
Shut off the engine and redo the sequence from start. 
Once the paraglider is over the Trike it may be necessary to brake it a little bit to avoid that the wing 
may go forward to much and drop over, curves are made just with the paraglider, the Trike will follow.  
 
After a few seconds (depending on the wind, from 2 to 15 meters ) with full gas the Trike will take off 
and fly. 

 

 
 

The Flight 

Flying the TRIKE-FLASH is very similar to flying a standard backpack motor system, but more 
comfortable. 
You can  set the gas with the cruise control on the handgrip and trim the paraglider for to fly straight. 
 

Landing 

Landing a Trike is much easier than a with a normal paramotor as the forward speed it’s not very 
important parameter. The  essential is to land straight against the wind, avoiding to curve before came 
completely down!
