We hope your paraglider LT 1 will provide you with many nice flights and that you’re - It’s not possible to transfer this responsibility of risks, using this equipment, to the experiencing moments that will last forever in your memory.
C or higher class wings. With 6,25 aspect ratio and 66 cels LT 1 is easy and safe to fly demanding pilot input like a C class wing. He corresponds a light air sport equipment with less than 120 kg empty weight.
Technology Our double „3D Shaping“ is a 3 dimension LDT are Load Distribution Tapes between the suspension points for a weight distribution shaping technology, which decreases the imperfections and wrinkles at the leading edge, along the whole wing during flight, resuLT 1ing in better performance and stability.
Never and under no circumstances the line length can be altered! life. During all consideration and calculation, security always is our first goal.. The used material mix for the lines of the LT 1 forms an ideal combination: long life with little deformation and aerodynamic drag.
Tow release take off Glider category and guidelines The LT 1 can be used for towed flight. The used equipment must be certified, the The descriptions of flight characteristics contained in this Manual are all based team handling the equipment must be licensed and you must have done a workshop on experiences from the test flights, which were carried out under standardized learning this take off.
Paragliders with a CCC certification have demanding flying characteristics and The LT 1 was tested within the standard of (LTF) with a harness of type (GH). We can potentially reactions to turbulence and pilot errors. Recovery to normal flight requires recommend for the LT 1 all harness of type (ABS), tested with a carabiner connection precise pilot input.
FLIGHT Accelerator Most of modern harness have pulleys for assembling the Foot Speed System. The line must be firmly attached to the stirrup. The other end of the line is fed through Take Off Check List the harness’ pulleys and comes out vertically, and must be firmly attached to the clip of the quick look.
Forward Take off Reverse Take off The preparation is the same as to forward take off. But this time you have to turn When ready to takeoff, the pilot must have risers (A) and the toggles in hand. The towards the canopy. During the turn lift the hand which is turning away from the arms must be extended to the side, as if they are extensions of risers (A).
- Exercise the use of the accelerator during calm conditions. A pilot fully in tune with the LT 1 can use these B-riser inputs to follow the lifty lines - Be cautious flying accelerated in difficult and turbulent conditions.
Landing Positive spiral Always choose a secure and clean landing side with lots of space, great distance to A positive spiral has a high sink rate. But the high acceleration, G-Force, impedes to fly this natural obstacles and is not under the influence of turbulent air. maneuver for a long time.
B3-Descent Always keep within the recommended limits. Avoid aerobatics and extreme loading such as spirals and big ears. This will prevent accidents and avoid over-loading the To increase your sink rate, pull in the (BR3) lines simultaneously, firmly, and glider. progressively.
The LT 1 has a long way on the brakes before he enters a full-stall. A full-stall happens if the brakes are pulled symmetrically and excessively downwards. Normally the Without action, the paraglider will begin a positive spiral.
Negative spiral Line Over The LT 1 has a long way on the brakes and difficulties to enter in a negative spiral. If the tip of the wing is trapped in lines it could cause a positive spiral, which is But if one of the brakes is extremely pulled downwards it can happen.
Flying in the rain We strongly advise you not to fly in the rain on any paraglider including the LT 1. If Safety training you do fly in the rain, be aware that you will have a greater risk of entering a deep stall.
PACKING YOUR PARAGLIDER There are different ways who can help to extend the life of your paraglider. One way is to fold the glider right. It’s most important to watch out for the reinforcements to maintain the take off characteristics and the performance. We are recommending the “Origami Step 3: Now do it in the same way Method”...
Step 4: Fold the wing like an accordion from both sides and put one side over the other. Traditional-Method Now all reinforcements are laying side-wise one above the other. Step 1: Bundle up your glider in form of a cabbage. This way you’re avoiding that the glider drags over the ground during folding.
Storing Most part of the glider fabric is Nylon. As all other synthetic materials it suffers and deteriorates under the influence of ultraviolet radiation (UV). It looses his stiffness and gets more porous. Whenever it is possible avoid to submit your glider to the sun light, it has a high UV rate, especially in heights.
TIPS FOR CARE INSPECTION Your paraglider has strictly to follow the required inspection intervals. The first - Over-stressing of individual lines, more than normal load in flight, should be avoided. inspection check is mandatory completing 24 months or 100 flights, whichever comes An excessive deformation is irreversible and can’t be undone.
In order to make a plea for repair or equipment exchange, which shall be decided and performed only by SOL Paragliders, the owner must send the paraglider to the Every paraglider manufactured by SOL Paragliders has a Warranty of 3 Years or 300 manufacturer with the following documents: Hours of Flight, whichever comes first.
