It should never be necessary to have to apply a correction greater than 15 mm rotation. If it should be
necessary, contact your dealer or Icaro 2000.
To fasten the cam in the new position, screw down the screw on the head of the cam, tightening it well.
To ensure safety, you can reposition the smaller screw on the side of the tube. To perform this, you will
have to drill a new 1.7 mm hole in the cam, centered on the centre of the hole that is already present in
the tube at the wingtip.

9.2 Trim Speed


It is possible to regulate trim speed by changing the hang point amongst the holes on the keel.

It is possible to regulate trim speed by changing the hang point amongst the holes on the keel.

By moving the hang point forward, the glider will fly faster (and vice versa).

With a higher trim speed, the glider tends to drop the wing less during turns.

An excessively low trim speed considerably reduces manoeuvrability
IMPORTANT: move the hook-in point forwards or backwards just one hole at a time. The
maximum degree of forwards/backwards movement depends on the sail and NOT on the number
of holes on the keel. In fact in some models, the same keel is used for different sail sizes, which
have different centre points. This is why there are more holes than can actually be used.
