Page 3: Welcome To The Sol Team
It is in your responsibility as a pilot to know what your insurance covers. - Sol paragliders tests every produced paratrike wing, to assure our clients full quality and function of every paratrike wing. We recommend that every new or reviewed paratrike Symbols wing will be tested on the ground and flew from the training hill by his pilot. -
Page 4: Hercules 2 - The Project
Hercules 2 - THE PROJECT Hércules 2 extends the positive points of its predecessor, bringing ease of operations and more performance. Suitable for all Paratrike flyers - beginners to experienced. Recommendation With two sizes, the smallest indicated for monotrike pilots up to 240 kg and the largest for double paratrikes with up to 380 kg takeoff weight. -

During all consideration and calculation, security always is our first goal.. The used material mix for the lines of the Hercules 2 forms an ideal combination: long life with little deformation and aerodynamic drag. -

PREPARING FOR FLIGHT THE Paratrike wing - INFORMATION Take off weight Laying out the paratrike wing Each paratrike wing seize is dedicated to a certain weight range, from a minimum take - Choose an easy training elevation with less inclination for the first flight, without off weight to a maximum. -

Check if they are connected and positioned in the right way without any twist. The A riser must be in front in flight direction. - Page 10 Step 3. Pass the main line Step 4. Close the node inside the pulley with main auxiliary line. Confirm that both sides are symmetric. Make the necessary readjustments and fill the glider on the ground to make sure that the brakes are working fine before flying with your power glider.

Page 11: Commands With Reflex Profile
COMMANDS WITH REFLEX PROFILE Double command The Hercules 2 has an auxiliary command, this double command is used to make curves Paratrike wings are generally made with reflex profile (auto stable), the degree of stability more open or closed in all conditions of use, regardless of the position of the trimmer. is determined by each paratrike wing model. -
Page 12: Flight
Take off It is easy to take off with Hercules 2. The pilot, ready to take off, must hold only the controls (brake handles), before inflating, a last look of control over the extended equipment is mandatory. Once this is done, slowly start taking off by gradually rotating the engine to approximately 50% of its capacity, bringing the paratrike wing over your head, with the possibility for an eventual correction in the direction. -
Page 13: Climbing
Climbing Power induced oscillations After takeoff, continue driving for a while against the wind until you have a safe height It is recommended to use the accelerator when flying against the wind or in zones for the first turn. with descending air. Due to a decreased angle of attack, the canopy may collapse easier than when set at the normal position. -

B-Stoll Sol Paragliders does not recommend doing B-Stoll with the Hercules 2. Positive spiral Sol Paragliders does not recommend doing positive spiral with the Hercules 2. Big ears Sol Paragliders does not recommend doing big ears with the Hercules 2. -
Page 15: Lateral Closing
Lateral closing Parachutal This paratrike wing does not have parachutal flight tendencies and recovers on its Active flying almost ever avoids lateral closing. If lateral closing happens, the canopy folds predictable and progressively from the tip to the center. This corresponds a collapse own from an intentional parachutal flight induced by braking commands. -

PACKING YOUR Paratrike WING Line Over If the tip of the wing is trapped in lines it could cause a positive spiral, which is difficult There are different ways who can help to extend the life of your paratrike wing. One way to control. -

Traditional - Method Step 3: Now do it in the same way with the leading edge profiles. Put the Step 1: Bundle up your paratrike wing reinforcements of top and bottom in the in form of a cabbage. This way you’re right way, don’t close the cell openings avoiding that the paratrike wing drags and push out the fabric. -
Page 18: Storing
Step 4: Fold the paratrike wing like an accordion from both sides and put one side over Storing the other. Now all reinforcements are laying side-wise one above the other. Most part of the paratrike wing fabric is Nylon. As all other synthetic materials it suffers and deteriorates under the influence of ultraviolet radiation (UV). -
Page 19: Tips For Care
TIPS FOR CARE - Over-stressing of individual lines, more than normal load in flight, should be avoided. An excessive deformation is irreversible and can’t be undone. For the same reason avoid stepping on the lines, bending or folding them, especially the main lines. Step 3: Close all parts and pockets of the back pack. -
