LAUNCH

•  Launching is strictly carried out against the wind.
•  The canopy is lying behind the pilot.
•  The A-risers are as far as possible placed into brackets on the cage, permitting improved line guidance.
•  Take the steering lines into your hands.
•  Start up.
•  At the same time, accelerate in a controlled manner and wait until the canopy is rising above the pilot.  

  Keep the canopy as central above the pilot as possible and increase engine output until the trike takes off.  

  Maintain the course by slightly braking on the left steering line. 

FLIGHT

•  After a short while, the speed can be reduced. You should not permanently fly at full throttle until the  

  cruising height has been reached.
•  Then the cruising throttle lock can be used.

LANDING

•  The landing should always be performed against the wind.
•  The canopy is flared by means of the steering lines just before touch down.
•  Once the chassis has touched the ground, no fast changes in direction should be carried out.  

  If the trike is steered against the canopy’s direction, the trike threatens to be levered out and topple over.
