RR-ACROWINGS ROLLING, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 10 / 30

Vers.1.0 S. 10 / 30
We recommend the following routine:
1.) Strapped up (Leg strap and chest strap on the harness and helmet strap
all done up)
2.) Clipped in (Risers untwisted and connected to the karabiners, speed
system attached and karabiners properly closed)
3.) Lines (A lines on top, all lines sorted, brake line unlooped between
brake handle and pulley)
4.) Glider (glider lies arched with opened cell openings at take off.)
5.) Wind and airspace (wind suitable for launch and airspace in front of
take off free of other gliders)
The ROLLING has a very well balanced and easy take off behaviour.
Corrections are easy to perform at any time and no special advice is needed for
forward or reverse launches.
A proper take off technique can only be learnt by intensive training. That’s why
we recommend to spend some time on a training hill every once in a while.
Also some ground handling will improve your take off skills. The best thing is
to have an experienced pilot with you who can help with some advice.
Like this, you will soon be able to launch your glider confidently, even in
difficult conditions. This will add a lot of safety to your flying and it allows you
to enjoy your flights from the very beginning.
Normal flight
If you release both brakes (“Hands up”) the ROLLING glides at the so called
“trim speed”. At this speed, the glide ratio reaches its maximum.
If you fly into a headwind or through sinking air, you should use the accelerator
to maximise your glide ratio. If you use the accelerator in turbulent conditions,
you have to consider more demanding reactions in the case of a collapse. So
you should keep more distance from the ground if you fly accelerated.
