4.6 TAKEOFF
Once the prerotation procedure is finished gently move the control stick
fully back to its stop, release wheel brakes and increase the engine power
progressively.
Make sure the control stick is fully back before start the takeoff run.
A takeoff run with flat rotor may have fatal consequences.
Use the rudder pedals to keep the alignment of the runway (right pedal).
Once the nose wheel lifts, move the control stick forward to keep it at
approx. 10 cm off the ground while the gyroplane accelerates.
When the gyroplane takeoffs do a level flight until reach 100 km/h (best
rate of climb) and then raise the nose to keep this speed.
Use the pitch trim to adjust the speed of the gyroplane:
Trim back = Nose up = reduce speed.
Trim forward = Nose down = increase speed.
Remember: adjust the speed with the control stick, climb and
descend with engine power.
Once reached the safe altitude, reduce the engine power to maintain the
flight level at the desired speed.
