  1. thansk si

    so let me get this right and plaes confirm for me.

    trim pulled all the way in = soaring and landing in light winds no reflex but dont use speed bar

    trim pulled so rear riser 2cm bellow the netural line = best take off (even in nill wind??)

    neutral = once taken off and at safe height cruising postion (still dont use speed bar?) but is this in relex mode or not? and do i use brakes to stear or wing tip at this point)

    and then anything above neutral is in relex but dont use speed bar unless 100% relex ??

    thanks

    in advance for clarification

  2. hi all

    i have a paramania revolution wing , i got it second hand over a year ago (it must be good because the owner only flew it a couple times each year and he recently missed it so much he asked if he could buy it back) any way ive decided to take to the motor and have booked to have my motor conversion/lessons .

    ive finally got the wing out of the bag to check out the risers and the trimmers are just red and blank, no stitch mark or indication of trim levels, ive searched the web and noticed that paramania issued an up grade that was red and green with indication on it ,ive contacted it them and they no longer issue this upgrade becasause they no longer make this wing. so to enable me to mark the risers my self correctly could so one with this wing and the upgrade either send me a close up picture of the riser markings with a ruller next to it with the 0cm mark on the bottom or top setting so i can copy it, or even better scan it retaining the original size so i can print it out on tshirt printer paper and transfer it to the trimmer myself.

    sounds strange but it would help me a lot.

    many thanks

  3. please excuse me if this is covered some where else but i would like clear definitive answer rather than trawling though post to see what i can understand.

    and it wouldnt really be a forum if no one asked rather than searched :)

    i have a parajet voulution 2 , my question is this, in degrees C what should the head tempreture be and what should the EGT tempreture be, and also what does the tempreture tells me my understanding is this if the tempreture is too high at low revs then the engine is lean on the low end Needle if the tempreture is too low then its too rich on the low end needle , the same for the high end needle when at high revs, is this correct and what should the temps be and what sort of tolerance from thoese temps is aceptable many thanks in advance for your answers

  4. i did consider getting a back rack not to save a few seconds dismantling the frame each time but mainly to stop the inside of the car getting covered in oil and fuel, and although i have 20 years no claims on my insurance there is no control over someone going in to the back of me destroying my motor, has anyone managed to claim the extra 3-5k on top of the damage to there car for there motor in a car accident ????

  5. In true Dell style i am pretty sure this is illegal in the USA. Having glanced at CAP660 it seems to be competely illegal in the UK on every conceivable level!

    yes it is, only fine sand and water can be dropped from an aircraft, however if you have a word with the local freefall club they should be able to tell you how to go about gaining permission to have someone eject themselves from your aircraft! on a less serous note seen as the body is 70% water they can only prosecute for 30% of the max fine :mrgreen:

  6. If you turn your engine off you are still classed as a powered glider you've just simply chosen to glide at that time you still have the means to fly under power , dispite which gliders are only exempt from the 500ft rule when ridge soaring or like any other aircraft when landing or taking off, there's no need to ignore the 500ft rule it's for our own safety as well as others

  7. yes thankyou, i was thinking about the icaro helmet but noticed there fittings seem to be inside the helmet?

    another quick question the guys at microavionics will probably able to answer but untill then!. if you connect your phone and use it as an mp3 player and a call comes in if you get radio chatter while on the phone do you only here radio chatter and it cuts the sound from the phone and does the person on the phone here what your saying when transmitting on the radio?

  8. Darren, why are you messing about on here? You should be tinkering!

    Seriously though, have fun and fly safe. A wealth of knowledge on here.

    Now, where is my bloody Zenith!

    :D

    tinkering i should be but the wife is preventing tat from happening at the moment :(

    so far ive removed the black paint from the silencer the red underneath looks a lot better ive got to hand test first.

    one question do you hand test with or without fuel?
