COSY 2 HF
2.6 INSPECTION AND WING INFLATION ON THE GROUND
Once you have checked all the equipment and made sure that the wind condiCons are favourable, inflate
your COSY 2 HF as many Cmes as necessary in order to become acquainted with the wing’s behaviour. The
COSY 2 HF inflates easily and smoothly. An excess of energy is not necessary and the wing will inflate with
minimum pressure on the harness when you move forward. This may be assisted by using the A lines. Do
not pull on them; just accompany the natural rising movement of the wing. Once the wing is in the 12
o’clock posiCon, simply apply correct pressure on the brake lines and the COSY 2 HF will sit over your head.
2.7 ADJUSTING THE BRAKES
The length of the main brake lines is adjusted at the factory to the length established during cerCficaCon.
However, the length can be changed to adapt to the pilot’s flying style. Nevertheless, we recommend that
you fly for a while with these, set at the original length. This will allow you to become accustomed to the
COSY 2 HF and its unique flying behaviour. If you then decide to change the length of the brake lines, unCe
the knot, slide the line through the brake link to the desired length, and strongly re-Ce the knot. Qualified
personnel should carry out this adjustment. You must ensure that this adjustment does not slow down the
glider without any pilot input. Both brake lines should be symmetrical and measure the same length. The
most recommended knots are the clove hitch knot or bowline knot.
When changing the brakes length, it is necessary to check that they do not act when the accelerator is
used. When we accelerate the glider rotates over the C riser and the trailing edge elevates. We must check
that the brake is adjusted taking in consideraCon this extra length in acceleraCon.
3. THE FIRST FLIGHT
3.1 CHOOSE THE RIGHT PLACE
We recommend that the first flight with your COSY 2 HF is made on a smooth slope (a school slope) or in
your usual flying area.
3.2 PREPARATION
Repeat the procedures detailed in chapter 2 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY in order to prepare your
equipment.
3.3 FLIGHT PLAN
Draw out a flight plan before take-off in order to avoid possible flight errors.
