Ultralight motorized hangglider with power steering

摘要

An ultralight drive motor having a pushing propeller is fitted at the rear to a normal hangglider, approximately 70 cm below the end of the keel rod, on a tail skid which can pivot and rotate in a limited manner. The hangglider pilot, who flies the aircraft in a prone position, latches his feet into a steering rod which is mounted on the tail skid and can thus deflect the propeller air blast upwards or downwards and to the right or left by pulling, pushing and/or rotating the pedals, and hence utilise it for additional control.
