THE DEFAULT SETTINGS_
The delivered brake line and default setting corresponds to the setting 0-leeway plus 5 cm.
It is recommended to adjust the brake handle to your personal needs after the first flight.
Remember that the brakes should not be set too short, otherwise the glider would fly
continuously braked. These situations would be extremely dangerous for take-off, flight and
landing!
The default setting is in extreme flight situations and when landing
sufficient braking distance available. At the same time, it enables a comfortable arm position
for the trim flight. Under no circumstances should the basic setting of the A, B and C lines be
changed.
PAY ATTENTION_
Please note that the relative braking distance changes with the height/ length of the harness.
When fixing the setting, make sure that both sides are symmetrical and that a permanent knot
is used. The double fisherman’s knot/ spar or pile stitch has proven particularly effective in
that since it weakens the lines the least with excellent slip resistance.
