WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FLEX-WING AND 3-AXIS MICROLIGHTS?
The difference between these two types is the method used to control them in flight. Flex-wing microlights use a system called weight shift, which involves the pilot moving the weight of the trike unit, the body of the aircraft under the wing to control its speed and direction. The 3-Axis microlights have control surfaces like those on conventional aircraft, which are operated by control stick and pedals.
