SECURITY PRECAUTIONS_
1.
1. Before the first flight, the cap, lines, all connections and sewing, the shackles, brake
lines and brake line knots as well as any twisted lines must be checked by appropriately
trained personnel and confirmed on the type plate
2.
Make your first flight in a known flight area/ territory and in calm conditions
3.
Test your GRAVITY Xrocket only over water
4.
During a "dynamic flight" the gravitation does not only affect you, but also on the
glider. Do not underestimate this state and the forces!
5.
Always fly your GRAVITY Xrocket with at least one rescue device!
6.
Compliance with the air traffic act and regulations are applicable in the respective
country must be observed and revised carefully
7.
Successful, certified completion of the appropriate training and license as well as the
current existence of the appropriate level of knowledge / the current flight experience
are prerequisites for using the GRAVITY Xrocket
8.
The use of suitable, tested and approved accessories (helmet, harness, rescue device)
is a prerequisite for using the GRAVITY Xrocket
9.
Carry out a thorough material check of your equipment (top sail, bottom sail, ribs,
especially the lines, carabiners, belt buckles, cloth, speed system, etc.) before every
start
10.
A flight with a crack or hole in the wing or line can be life-threatening
11.
Always make sure that the aircraft is in a proper flying condition and that the required
inspections have been carried out regularly
12.
Be aware that as a pilot you must be physically and mentally able to carry out the
flight unimpeded. You have to concentrate fully on flying in order to possibly avoid
unpleasant flight conditions
13.
Most accidents are due to pilot errors
14.
Never fly near high-voltage lines, airports or highways, over people or during a
thunderstorm! Otherwise you could endanger the life and physical integrity of third
parties and / or your own and act grossly negligent at the same time!
15.
The minimum distance must never be less than 50 m. At airports, this is a radius of 5
km

Find out about the prevailing weather conditions in the weather report and on site in
advance
17.

100%

Never use the screen during approaching thunderstorms or storms or when there is a
high probability of thunderstorms or storms
19.
Land immediately when thunderstorms or bad weathers approach!
20.
Aerobatic flying is generally prohibited and life-threatening. Unpredictable flight
situations can occur that may get out of control. There is a risk of physical and thermal
overload on the material and/ or the pilot
PAY ATTENTION_
Failure to disregard one or more safety precautions or violation can
turn flight fun into a life-threatening event.
