![]() The only known disadvange to the standard barrel release was the zero tension situation. This kit comprises two releases and a spliced Dyneema line. It is recommended that with only to use two tow releases so it is possible to get rid of the tow line if it was to become in some way caught at the metal ring. The smooth splice is vital to prevent the cord becoming caught in the tow ring when released. Zero stretch cord means that if there is weaklink break the tow ring is much less likely to spring back in you face. The use of this type of cord is very important. This forms an inverted 'V' shape with one end attached to each harness shoulder tow loop. It is used with a short length of non stretch line (we use Dyneema) with smooth splicing at each end so as to run easily through the ring at the end of the tow line. The simple barrel tow release is very simple to attach to harness by just looping through your harness tow loops. The BMP pilot may be used with 2S-3S 1300-2200mAh Lipo battery and compact 2.4Ghz receiver.We are now making these using a CNC machined barrel, for the best possible consistency of action and minimal chance of accidental release 2 Barrel tow releases and line BMP Pilot's Jumpsuit and Pilot Harness are sold separately, subject to availability. Inherent esthetic imperfections associated with printed parts maybe improved and refinished as desired. BMP Pilot's body components are made of biodegradable hard and soft plastic material, designed for optimum performance, durability, and value. MBP RC 1:5 Scale RC Pilot's legs and feet may be omitted when installing pilot into RC plane cockpit, cars, trucks, boats, and other scale vehicles.Ĭreate your pilot by adding individual components or purchase the BMP RC pilot kits here. Optionally, servo horns may be screwed directly onto each arm to mount onto any standard size brand of servo. The BMP RC Hang Glider and Paraglider pilot arms are designed to directly mount onto standard Futaba servo. A 9G micro servo and ball link maybe added to control head/neck movement. Standard size plastic or metal-geared Futaba servos may be used depending on set up, flight weight, size of wing/airfoil, and motor size. ![]() To assure proper set up for hand launch and flight, the paraglider wing should inflate fully with brake lines released. It is important to make sure the paraglider wing can not inflate or allow take off once brake lines (pilot’s arms) are pulled down all the way. Optionally, two additional standard size servos may be used to control the pilot’s legs to maximize weight-shift response.Įach arm is made of one solid section, controlling left and right brake lines. Ballast or heavier/longer 2S/3S Lipo flight pack may be used to adjust CB/CG as needed, and to soften/decrease or tighten/increase control response. Note: To assure successful RC flight/soaring, it is critical to properly set the pilot's hang distance from the wing's hang point in order to assure proper CB/CG, and to make sure servo/arm movements are not restricted. The HG pilot's hands attach to control bar using velcro or zip ties. The two-section arms working together, deliver scale-realistic upper/lower arm movement and full range of motion. The flexible lower arm provides impact resistance during flight and landing. Each operated by a standard size servo (sold separately). Įach arm is made of two sections, upper and lower. BMP Pilot is compatible with a variety of 1/5 scale Hang Glider wings expanding 2 to 3 meter wide including the 1:5 scale RCT SlipStream-6 Hang Glider Wing, and the BMP 2.5 Sport Paraglider wing. The BMP Pilot full body or upper torso is also used for fitting into a variety of static and RC model planes, cars, tucks, and boats. BMP Pilot is a 1:5 scale RC Hang Glider and Paraglider Pilot.
