Verify that the hang loop assembly was correctly positioned during flight and was
not caught on the nose rib pocket.
VG Off Turn
If your glider falls into one turn direction more than the other you have a spiral turn. If
you check carefully, you will notice that your glider will also have a gentle turn with the
VG off in straight flight. With the Litesport, this kind of turn becomes more noticeable
with VG 1/3 on.
The first thing to adjust is the white plastic back section end cap. This end cap houses
the tube in which the fibreglass tip inserts. If you have a right spiral, you should rotate
the right side white plastic down and back, i.e. anticlockwise if you are looking from the
wing tip to the nose and the glider is in flying mode. There are pre-drilled holes in the
white plastic to secure the screw. The neutral position is marked with a pen mark on the
plastic.
VG On Turn
If your glider has a turn only when VG is 3/4 to full on, the turn is caused entirely by
uneven dive strut heights. To fix this kind of turn you should adjust the dive struts.
If you have a gentle left turn, the first step is to raise the right side dive strut 1/4 turn.
This is best done when the glider is fully assembled and the dive strut folded toward the
leading edge inside the sail to release tension from the cable. Remove the ring and
clevis pin securing the dive strut to the threaded cone. The threaded cone has 4 holes
and can be rotated in 1/4 turn increments. To adjust the right side up 1/4 turn, you need
to unscrew the cone 1/4 turn and re-locate the holes in the cone with those in the dive
strut. Replace the clevis pin and ring and re-position the dive strut in the loop on the
sail.
If your glider does not fly straight after this adjustment, you need to lower the left side 1/4
turn. This process is the same as raising the strut 1/4 turn, only the cone needs to be
screwed in.
For a right turn, raise the left strut 1/4 turn, and if adjustment is still needed lower the
right side 1/4 turn.
Continue this process until the glider is flying straight. If the process needs to be
repeated more than twice consult your local Moyes dealer or Moyes Delta Gliders for
advice.
