FLIGHT MANUAL
Engine run-up
Advance to full throttle prior to or during the take-off run – make sure that
engine reaches a minimum speed of about 5600 to 5800 RPM and runs sound.
Taxiing
With a wheel fitted near the tip of the wing (available as an option), taxiing “wing
down” is easily conducted (flaps to be set at “0” or “-1”), otherwise a helper is
required. A steerable tail wheel (fitted on request) facilitates taxiing.
For taxiing the control stick should be kept fully back.
The brake lever on the control stick is actuated with the right hand.
For taxiing “wing down” it is recommended to conduct larger directional changes
such that the dragging wing is on the inside of the turn, thus achieving a tight
radius.
Turning very tightly is also possible by deflecting the rudder, gently applying the
wheel brake and advancing the throttle.
