accidentally.
During flight the throttle cable must be outside of the right steel cable!
The correct length setting of the rising line is adjusted be pushing or pulling the free end of
the orange line through the black push rod. If all lines are hold in the vertical flying position
the orange line should just be tight. Secure the free end at the black push tube with a knot,
wrap the end around it and secure it with a piece of Velcro. If you’re using a Silex, the
correct length including the carbine is 63 cm.
Seat Belt
The Flyke is equipped with a 4-point seat belt like some sport cars.
The belt lock is located in the middle of the 4 belts, each length can be
adjusted individually.
Start Check
The check procedure can be separated into two parts:
-
A check of the complete mechanical set-up, especially all joints, screws and rubber
elements. Look for damage and check for tight seats.
-
And the check of the correct start configuration.
The first check is the same as you usually do with your motor, but now the complete Flyke is
included.
