a) Adaptation of wings and trikes
The GTE Trek trikes can only be fitted to the FUN 450, KISS and iXess wings
manufactured by AIR CREATION.
The propeller diameter only allows assembly of short keel wings. Therefore, it is not possible to
fit the following AIR CREATION wings: PLUS, QUARTZ, SX and FUN manufactured before
March 1997. Regarding the FUN 18 QC wing, the maximum weight is limited to 330 kg
(728 lbs) to comply with the maximum take-off weight of 385 kg (849 lbs – see the wing's
manual). If the wing to be fitted was not supplied with the trike when purchased (different make
or second-hand), check all parameters (height, displacement of the control bar, propeller
clearance with keel ends) and make sure that there is at least 10 cm clearance between the
propeller and the wing structure, when all possible angles of attack are ground tested.
b) Rigging/ Unrigging
Lift the wing, rest it on the nose and into the wind.
•
Wheel the trike behind the wing, line it up with the keel, pull the upper beam down and take
•
the front tube out.
Raise the upper beam, push the hang point into the hang bracket, position the Ø10 hang
•
bolt, install the butterfly nut and the locknut, tilt back the lever in order to tighten the plates
and secure with split ring.
Slip the back-up fastening cable through the belt loop at the king post, running it once
•
around it. Slip it through the belt loop again and fasten it to the trike beam. The back-up
fastening cable should be run under the tensioning cables. This operation secures the trike to
the wing, also securing the wing cross-bar tensioning system.
Place the propeller so that no blade stands in front of the keel axis.
•
Raise the wing nose into a horizontal position.
•
Attach the front strut between the aluminum flanges at the top of the upper beam using the
•
bolt and the butterfly nut.
Pick up the 'A' frame tubes, take hold of the control bar and lift the wing while preventing
•
the trike from falling backwards. The front strut can be fitted into its locating position when
the wing is lifted high enough. When rigging solo, rotate the instrument console, sit down
on the trike beam facing the 'A' frame, take hold of the control bar, place it on your knees,
raise the wing and fit the front strut as indicated.
Install the upper beam safety bolt on the engine support using the butterfly nut, tilt the lever
•
back in order to tighten the plates, slip the split ring in the hole of the bolt.
Install the bolt connecting the front tube with the lower beam; screw the butterfly nut,
•
secure with split ring.
Install the foam seat using the Velcro tabs. The front part of the rear bucket seat must be
•
rolled around the frame seat, in front of the seat supporting strap, and then fixed with Velcro
under this middle strap. Slip the Velcro between the seat frame and the different wires.
Set into place the windshield of the panel by using the ¼ turn bolts.
•
To disassemble reverse the assembly operations. Tilt the back of seat / container forward to
•
the single-seater position before lowering the wing.
