Rotor steeringThe rotor head is controlled by the control stick infront of the pilot’s seat. The stick moves controlrods under the seats. These are linked by a fork to2 vertical rods which connects to the rotor head.The limitations for pitch <strong>and</strong> roll are in the rotorhead.A change of position of the control stick directlyaffects the gyrocopter’s attitude in the air.Vigorous movement of the stick is strictlyprohibited. The proper way to h<strong>and</strong>le the controlstick is learned during the corresponding course ina flight training school.Furthermore the PTT <strong>and</strong> trim-buttons are locatedon the stick.A co-pilot control stick is optional <strong>and</strong> is directlyattached to the rods under the seats in the cabin.TrimmingElectrical operated rack <strong>and</strong> pinion triming deviceis installed under the rear seat. It is connected tothe control rods under the seat through spring coil.Actuating the trim button on the control stick trimsthe gyrocopter for fast (to the front) or slow flight(to the back).Optional trim button for the co-pilot may also beinstalled.Rotor brakeThe rotor is slowed down <strong>and</strong> stopped by a brake, which is mounted inthe rotor head. With the control stick pushed all the way forward, thebrake pad is pressed on the rotating gear disk in the rotor head <strong>and</strong>slows the rotor. It is absolutely prohibited to activate the rotor brakeduring flight. The rotor brake is only actuated after l<strong>and</strong>ing.<strong>Flight</strong> <strong>and</strong> operation manual G 4-2 <strong>Rev</strong>ision <strong>3.0</strong> – 09.04.2013 60
Hydraulic wheel brakesThe hydraulic wheel brakes are regulated by pulling the brake leverwhich is installed on the throttle control lever. The hydraulic brake actson both main gear wheels at the same time. When st<strong>and</strong>ing still, thewheel brake is to be fixed with the locking button (parking brake).Optional brake lever is installed for the co-pilot on the back throttlecontrol lever <strong>and</strong> is directly connected to the pilot’s brake lever.Nose wheel steeringThe nose wheel is controlled by the pedals for the side rudder via rods.Pre-rotator controlTo pre-rotate start the rotor, the pilotmust push a pedal, which pulls a wireto actuate a belt clutch, drive shafts<strong>and</strong> a bendix gear. The control stickmust be kept in the front quarterposition with the trim in the mostforward position to avoid collisionbetween the rotor blades <strong>and</strong> theempennage.To deactivate the pre rotationprocess, the pedal must be released.A slide pre-rotator slide pedal type may be used in older models (seepicture in 6.3 Steering systems).Warning: Before activating the prerotator the pilot must make surethat the rotor area is clear.Warning: The rotor must be trimed forward <strong>and</strong> the pilot must holdthe stick in the front quarter position prior to <strong>and</strong> during theprerotation process. The stick may only be pulled back at or above180 RPM.<strong>Flight</strong> <strong>and</strong> operation manual G 4-2 <strong>Rev</strong>ision <strong>3.0</strong> – 09.04.2013 61
