18. Flying the C42 Series without Doors
Under the following conditions, the IKARUS C42 SERIES may be flown
with the dismantled doors:
• All loose items (maps, documents) should be properly secured.
• The dropping of objects during flight is prohibited.
• Maximum speed for flights with one or both doors removed is 150
km/h IAS.
• Side-slipping is not permitted with dismantled doors.
• Turbulence in the cockpit will increase when the flaps are set to
position III.
19. Instructions for using of LiFe Battery
The usage of LiFe-Batteries on the C42 Series is related to the battery
modulation technology which allows for an effective reduction of the
empty weight for more than 3,5 kg due to its high-energy density. Only
available as an option. These batteries are characterised by the following
qualities:
• low-maintenance
• small size
• high voltage
• fast charging
• high impulse current ability
• extremely low self-discharge
What is special is the ability to produce high battery power during the
starting procedure, though the battery develops it only at a certain
minimum temperature.
At cold outside temperatures, it can lead to the false conclusion that the
battery is empty.
