6.5.1 EFFECTS OF SNOW, ICE AND RAIN DURING LANDING
Landing on a snowy, icy or wet runway requires maximum attention and care.
In order to reduce speed as much as possible, land with nose high and keep the gyroplane
flying as long as possible.
To completely stop the gyroplane, gently pull the control stick back when the main wheels
touch the runway.
Taxi slowly. Use the brakes gently and only when necessary.
6.6 LOW AND HIGH TEMPERATURES
6.6.1 PROCEDURES UNDER LOW TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS
Starting the engine may be difficult in low temperatures.
The use of external power supply units is allowed in case of problems starting due to low
efficiency of the gyroplane battery.
In order to make the engine starting easier at low temperatures it is necessary to increase the
throttle percentage at the starting moment as shown in the following figure.
