variation system. Care should be taken when the following elements
interact with each other:
• Trimmers
• Brakes
The pilot must note and assess the increase in wind speed and
turbulence, and decide the most safe action to take.
The trimmers serve to modify the speed of the wing.
The trimmer system is set by the pilot, i.e. it does not return to its point of
origin, but remains in place until the pilot decides to release/change the
position.
When the trimmer is in the neutral position, the wing will fly at a lower
speed with greater glide; when the trimmer is released, the wing will fly
with higher speed and worse glide.
The maximum travel of the trimmers is 50 mm.

Engaging and releasing the trimmers is effective and quick as well as
sensitive and accurate.
The trimmers must be manually operated by the pilot. The trimmers are
situated on the D-risers, one on each side.
