SETTING UP THE CONTROLS
on the end of the speed bar cord so that Brummel hooks can be attached to each other.
Ensure both cords from the speed bar are equal length to avoid putting an unwanted
turn in the glider.
The length of the cord leading to the foot bar stirrup should be adjusted so that it is easy
to put your feet into the stirrup in flight but still short enough to allow full speed system
travel. (The use of 2 stirrups in a ladder fashion can enable you to reach the full range if
your legs are not long enough.)
Test your speed system for the correct length on the ground by hanging your
paramotor to simulate the real flying position. While you are a few feet off the
ground, attach your risers to your harness and have someone hold them while
you try pushing the speed system checking for proper length and set up.
The full range of the speed system is reached when the 2 pulleys on the risers join
together. Before launch, attach the glider's risers to the harness with the main
carabineers first before attaching the speed system. Ensure that the speed system is
untangled and operates freely before flying. There should be a spare inch or so before
the speed bar activates the speed system. Remember that it is always safer to set the
margin of play too big than too small.
