10.2 Turn control

To familiarize yourself with the JAZZ your first turns should 

be gradual and progressive.

To make efficient and coordinated turns with the JAZZ first 

look in the direction you want to go and check that the air-

space is clear. Your first input for directional change should 

be weight-shift, followed by the smooth application of the 
brake until the desired bank angle is achieved. To regulate 
the speed and radius of the turn, coordinate your weight 
shift and use the outer brake.

We recommend to take off with closed trimmers.

10. In flight characteristics

10.1 Speed control

JAZZ has ling brake travel length and increased brake pressure.

You can change speed by using the trimmers an speed bar. 
By pulling the trimmers to the closed point and brakes are 
pulled approximately 30cm, the JAZZ will achieve its best 
minimum sink rate.
