Basic Guidance for All Maintenance and Repair Work
Supporting the aircraft: Caution: Parts being worked on may be part of the supporting structure. Each step that removes a bolt or other part must first be assessed to assure that the subsequent assemblies will be stable and supported. Jacking in the rear is allowed directly under the outboard most, lowest points on the frame where the lower engine mount frames are bolted to the main chassis. Jacking in the front is allowed on the outboard most, lowest tubes of the main chassis forward of the most aft attachment point of the front suspension A-frames.
Fluid Systems: The three primary fluids are engine oil, fuel and engine coolant. Hydraulic fluid (brakes) and transaxle oil are also used. For engine oil see drain points presented in the engine manual - the primary drain point is at the bottom of the oil pan. For fuel, the drain sump is on the bottom of the fuel tank. For coolant, there is a plug in the bottom of the radiator or a coolant hose at a low point in the system may be detached to drain coolant.
Electrical Systems: In process of working on the aircraft’s electrical system, the negative battery lead should be disconnected to assure that no short circuits are caused. In addition, the main harness should be disconnected from the fly-by-wire steering system.
Verification Assessment: Although it may not be stated in the following work areas, it is the responsibility of the person doing the maintenance, repairs, or alterations to complete their work by doing a functional evaluation sufficient to guarantee that the maintenance/repairs will function properly. The systems should function according to the manufacturer’s specification or at least equally well as it did before the alteration was performed or before the problem that was fixed. Contact the manufacturer for approval before performing maintenance for which instructions are not included or provided for in this manual.
Tools Required: While some specific tools may be called for in the individual work areas of this manual, it is assumed that the following tools are available for any given task:
SAE wrench set Metric wrench set SAE socket and ratchet set Metric socket and ratchet set #1, #2 and #3 Phillips screw drivers Straight screw driver

Approved Oils and Capacities
a) Engine Oil and Capacity: 4.2 US Quarts if replacing engine oil and filter. 4.0 US Quarts if only replacing engine oil.
Recommended oil: Those with API standard SM “Energy Conserving” logo. Those with ILSAC standard GF-4 “starburst” mark on container.
Normal Operating Conditions:
High Temperature or Severe Environment Operation: API Standard: SM or SL; SAE Viscosity #: 30, 40, 10W-50, 20W-40, 20W-50
b) Transaxle Oil: SAE 85W90 API/GL-4 – Fill to ½ in. below check plug. Recommended Fastener Torque Values
Use aircraft torque values (See FAA AC43.13-1B) where applicable. For propeller, follow manufacturer’s guidelines. For all engine bolts, follow standard factory Subaru torque guidelines. In all cases, follow this manual if there is any contradiction between it and another standard. Joints subject to rotation: Tighten until there is little gap, then the fastener must be a castellated nut locked with a cotter key or equivalent. Joints not specifying a torque: Tighten until the washer (if present) will not turn (until the bolt/nut will not turn in the assembly if there is no washer) and then the nut should be tightened ¼ turn more. If this is not a rotating joint, a nyloc nut will be sufficient, castellated nuts with cotter keys are acceptable. Joints having a torque value specified: Torque as specified on either the drawing or in the maintenance manual. These will usually be in the area of the motor, gear box, propeller or similar high-load parts. Warning: DO NOT deform tubing by over tightening. If following recommended torque values or manufacturer’s torque guidelines results in the onset of tubing deformation, stop before deforming the tube and contact the manufacturer.

General Safety Information
Drug and Alcohol Use: Do not mix alcohol consumption or drug use with the assembly, operation, or maintenance of your aircraft.
Locking Nuts: All nyloc (nuts with a nylon locking insert held securely in place) or steel locking nuts require 1 to 3 threads of the bolt showing past the nut past the nut. A self-locking nut can be reused as long as a wrench is required to turn it onto the bolt. If it can be hand tightened, however, replace the nut. If in doubt follow FAA AC43.13-1B chapter 7.
Difficulty with Bolt Fit: First make sure the difficulty is not due to misalignment, an incorrect part, or an incorrect bolt. If necessary use a drift or pin punch to align. If misalignment is not the cause of the difficulty, it is okay to lightly ream the hole with a drill bit or reamer the same size of the hole. Only ream enough to get the bolt through.
Handling Cables: Do not leave cables where they might be stepped on and damaged. Also, do not bend or bind them any tighter than the configuration in which they were shipped.
Parachute and Parachute Lines: When handling parachute lines, BE SURE that they are not stepped on. This can introduce dirt and sand into the lines which can cause dramatic strength reduction and premature failure. Do not step on the parachute fabric and avoid pinching it between metal or other hard parts or snagging it on any sharp points as this can result in damage, deterioration, and loss of strength. Store the parachute in the manufacturer provided cover to avoid prolonged UV exposure from the sun. If wet or damp, allow the parachute to dry completely before storage to avoid damage.
Reporting Possible Safety of Flight Concerns
For reporting safety of flight concerns found during inspection/maintenance see FEEDBACK FORM section for details.

3 STRUCTURES 3.0 Frame (Cart/Empennage)
3.0.1 Description: The frame is comprised mainly of welded 4130 steel tubes with welded on tabs and brackets. The main chassis bolts to the lower and upper engine mount portions and the drag struts for the rear suspension, A-arms for the front suspension, and CG adjustment mechanisms are bolted to the frame. Cables on either side connect the CG adjustment mechanism to the frame. The pilot seat is supported by the bulkhead behind it and tubes and in the floor beneath, with passenger restraint seat belts connecting to the same locations. The rear passenger seat is supported by the gas tank and the bulkhead behind it, with passenger restraints in the bulkhead behind the seat.
3.0.2 Inspection: Inspect security of fasteners holding frame and drive system together. Visually inspect frame for bending, cracking, or fatigue. If any of these are present DO NOT fly or drive as they may precede failure of the frame. Contact the manufacturer. Especially inspect connection points and surrounding frame area for the suspension and wing. Note that paint and coatings can ide small cracks or deformation and that very small cracks in coatings may be indicative of deformation in the metal beneath the coating. Cables and hardware they connect to, as well as hardware in the CG adjustment mechanism (especially eyebolts) should not sound and undeformed. Inspect the thimbles and swages on the cables for thimble deformation (indicating overloading or beginning of failure) and cable slipping or fraying. No special tools are required to accomplish this task. No parts are needed to perform this task.
3.0.3 Maintenance, Repair, and Alteration: All services MUST be performed by the manufacturer or manufacturer approved facility or personnel. Owners require no special tools, instructions, parts, or inspection procedures for these services. Manufacturer will test/inspect services.
3.1 Landing Gear (Wheels and Suspension)
3.1.1 Description: The front suspension system includes four a-frame suspension arms, two air shocks, the front two wheels and the suspension/wheel connection points. The rear suspension system includes two struts, the rear two wheels, two rear axles connecting the wheels and transaxle, two air shocks, and the suspension/wheel connection points. See images in Appendix 2.
3.1.2 Inspection:
3.1.2.1 Special Tools, :

3.1.2.5 Wheels and Tires: Tires should have a fair amount of tread showing and have no major cuts or cracks. Inspect for even wear across tire width and circumference. Replace tire if less than 2/32” (1.6 mm) of tread remain (depth of shallowest indentation in tread pattern). Tires positions should be changed if wear on front tires or on back tires is not even. If using optional tires switch the sides the tires are on. If using standard tires, switch the right front with left rear tire and left front with right rear tire (unless this would cause wear in the same location it had been, in which case switch the tires to positions that would cause wear in different positions). Valve stems should hold pressure and be operational. Rims should have a smooth surface where the tire bead sits. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.1.3 Maintenance, Repair, and Alteration:
3.1.3.1 Checking/Adjusting Shock pressure
3.1.3.1.1 Recommended Special Tools: Shock Pump
3.1.3.1.2 Required Parts: None
3.1.3.1.3 Type of Maintenance: Line
3.1.3.1.4 Certification Required: Owner through A&P
3.1.3.1.5 Instructions:
3.1.3.1.5.1 Remove the air valve cap from the shock
3.1.3.1.5.2 Thread the pump’s valve chuck onto the shock’s air valve until pressure registers on the pump gauge. This takes approx. 6 turns. Do not over tighten pump on air valve, as this will damage the pumps chuck seal.
3.1.3.1.5.2.1 Stroke the pump a few cycles. The pressure should increase slowly. If pressure increases rapidly check to make sure the pump is properly fitted and tightened onto the air valve.
3.1.3.1.5.2.2 Pump to the desired pressure setting. Normal pressure range is 50 to 300 psi for front and 45 to 150 psi for rear. Do not exceed shock manufacturers guidelines for pressure settings or travel. You can decrease pressure by pushing the black bleed valve. Pushing the bleed valve half way down and holding it there will allow pressure to escape from the pump and shock. Pushing the bleed valve all the way down and releasing it will allow only a small amount of pressure to escape. When unthreading the pump from the air valve fitting, the sound of the air loss is from the pump hose, not from the shock.
3.1.3.1.5.2.3 Replace the air valve cap.
3.1.3.1.6 Test/Inspect: Visually confirm that the tires sit flat.

3.2 Drive System
3.2.1 Description: The drive system is comprised of two cogged drive belts, one friction drive belt, four major shafts, two drive axles, three aluminum structural plates, a welded 4130 steel tube frame, and miscellaneous bearing holders and supports.
As viewed from the rear of the vehicle, all shafts and components connected to them spin CCW (counter clock wise).
A collar with in internal spline connects the main shaft driven by the engine to either a cogged belt drive that drives the propeller or a cogged belt that drives the continuously variable transmission (CVT). This collar is the means of transitioning between drive and flight modes, and, if transitioned correctly, only allows the car to be in one mode at any time, not both. The locking mechanism on this collar enables the user to verify this.
The propeller drive consists of a cogged belt and cogged pulleys configured so the propeller runs at a lower RPM than the engine. Additionally, the entire engine and support plates that bolt to it for the drive system are tilted relative to the vehicle chassis so that, in flight as the cart is normally nose up, the thrust line of the propeller is closer to being parallel with the relative wind and P-factor is reduced.
Maintenance Manual
Date: Document #: 10-23-2012 500501

The CVT has two sheaves that change in pitch diameter in response to RPM changes. The primary section is driven by a cogged belt drive. The secondary section is connected to the primary by a friction drive belt and drives the shaft entering the transaxle.
The transaxle is driven by the CVT and drives the rear axles. It has 3 modes: forward, reverse, and neutral, which are selected by the shifter in the cockpit.
See images in Appendix II.
3.2.2 Inspection:
3.2.2.1 All bolts must be secure and torqued to specification (if applicable). Inspect especially for major corrosion near steel bolts in contact with aluminum parts. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task. This line maintenance may be performed by owners through A&P.
3.2.2.2 All shafts should be centered and perpendicular to the support plates that their bearings or bearing holders are in. Total Indicated Runout (TIR) must be less than 0.0015” (0.04mm) on all shafts. A measuring device with sufficient resolution will be required. No parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.2.2.3 Visually inspect belts for frayed edges, tears, cracks, or delamination. Inspect for uneven wear on the belt (though a small degree of unevenness is usual), especially if one spot is worn more than others or if edges of a cogged belt are worn unevenly (which may indicate shaft or pulley misalignment). Contact manufacturer immediately for replacement or further inspection instructions if any defects are found. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.2.2.4 Inspect cogged pulleys and friction belt CVT pulleys. Sheaves should have smooth surfaces that show minimal wear and even wear. Foreign matter underneath belts (e.g. sand, dust, etc.) can rub on the sheaves and damage the surface the belts ride on. Guides should not be damaged in ways that will cause belt damage. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.2.2.5 Inspect bushings in pulleys and bushing tightening bolts. All bolts should be tight and torque stripe between shaft and bushing and bushing and pulley should indicate no relative motion between these parts. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.2.2.6 Check that the cog belts are properly tensioned. Use a belt tension meter and follow the guidelines in the tables below. Notify the manufacturer if belt tension is below these values by 10% or above by 5% for the propeller belt. The ground drive belt is not a safety of flight component, so if not attainable even used belt specs may be used for new belts. If a used belt is reinstalled, record the tension before removing and tension after re-installation must be the same. Additionally, if a used belt is reinstalled, it should travel in the same direction as it did before it was removed. No parts are required to accomplish this task. NOTE: Refer to ‘Maintenance and Repair’ section for any allowable maintenance to belts.

3.3 Wing (Ram-Air Parachute)
3.3.1 Description: The Maverick ‘wing’ is a high-aspect ratio, elliptical, double canopy ram-air pressurized, rip-stop nylon parachute. The suspension and steering lines are made of a separate material as well. The parachute is connected to the aircraft by risers and working-load rated carabiners. All parachute maintenance should be handled by the manufacturer or a manufacturer approved facility.
See images in Appendix II.
3.3.2 Inspection:
3.3.2.1 Carabiners: Visually inspect the carabiners and threads for deep scratches, dents, or defects. Carabiner nuts should be secure.

3.3.2.2 Risers: Inspect the risers for integrity of coating, frayed stitching or fabric, stress marks on fabric or stitching, and any other deterioration or degradation. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.3.2.3 Parachute: Layout the parachute flat on the ground behind the vehicle with the top surface of the canopy facing the ground and the bottom surface facing up. Inspect the bottom surface of the chute for any tears, holes, loose or frayed stitching, or discoloration (from contaminants or UV degradation). Turn the canopy over and repeat for the upper surface. Also inspect the ribs of the parachute, line loops, and crossports for damage, tearing, fraying, and loose or frayed stitching. Also verify that there is no major debris inside the cells of the chute. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.3.2.4 Parachute Lines: CAUTION: stepping on parachute lines and introducing dirt or sand into them can severely degrade strength and lead to premature failure. Avoid stepping on or pinching parachute lines. Shake the lines out and visually verify that the left and right sides are symmetrical, that the A and B lines go to the same carabiner on either side, that the C and D lines go to the same carabiner on either side, and that the lines go from their respective carabiners to the canopy without being twisted or knotted. Usually, if correctly rigged and installed, most apparent knots or twists can be remedied by simply shaking the lines out or by rotating individual carabiners relative to the chute). Verify that there are no loose, frayed, or torn lines (i.e. that all lines are connected at both ends to one of the following: the parachute, the carabiners, other lines, or the steering system). No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.3.2.5 Steering Lines: Steering lines should be routed as shown in the illustrations and should not be routed so that during normal travel they rub on sharp corners or surfaces that would damage the lines. Inspect for fraying or other signs of wear and degradation. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.3.3 Maintenance and Repair:
Except as specified, only the manufacturer or manufacturer approved facility, entity, or individual may perform maintenance and repair of a Maverick parachute. Contact the manufacturer for more information.

3.4 Control Systems
3.4.1 Description: The control system includes the steering, brake, throttle, and shifting systems. See images in Appendix II
3.4.1.1 Steering: The steering wheel is connected to the rack and pinion through the steering column. The electric fly-by-wire system has a sensor attached to the rack and pinion that provides input to the steering circuit board which controls the linear actuator electric steering motors. The steering wheel steers the front wheels on the ground and, with fly mode activated in flight, will activate the steering motors to pull on the parachute steering lines in order to steer the craft like a conventional PPC. The steering pedals function like those on a conventional PPC aircraft for steering (or back up if the electric system fails) and are required in normal operation for landing flare. The steering lines are routed through pulleys from the trim lock devices to the parachute.
3.4.1.2 Brakes: Each wheel has a disk brake, which is activated by the adjustable-position brake pedal through a master cylinder, proportioning valve, and brake lines. A parking brake (NOT EMERGENCY BRAKE) is implemented by a valve that, if shut after applying braking pressure, maintains braking pressure on the rear brakes after the brake pedal is released. Pressure is released by opening the valve. CAUTION: If there is no pressure in the system when the valve is closed, the parking brake will not be applied. Also, if the valve is closed and no pressure was in the system only the front brakes will activate if the brake pedal is pressed. Be sure to keep the valve open for normal driving and flying operation.
3.4.1.3 Throttle: The throttle is controlled by the adjustable-position gas pedal and/or a friction lever (primarily for in flight use). CAUTION: These controls operate in parallel, so releasing throttle on one will not decrease throttle held by the other and applying brakes will not decrease the throttle setting.
3.4.2 Inspection:
3.4.2.1 General: Check that all bolts and connectors are secure, that all moving parts have free and full range of motion (especially pulleys), and that no lines are frayed or damaged. All castle nuts must have cotter pins installed correctly. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.4.2.2 Steering: Check for full and interference free range of motion of the front wheels and electric steering cylinders. Check for excess movement in rack and pinion - there should be less than 1” of travel on the rim of the steering wheel before the wheels move or, when in flight mode, before the steering cylinders move in response to the steering wheel. Check for full articulation, smooth operation, and proper functionality of the manual steering pedals. Check that the trim locks work correctly and grasp the steering lines. Check that wires for the electric system are no frayed and connectors are secure. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
3.4.2.3 Brakes: Check brake pads for excessive wear and braking system for functionality. Check brake fluid level and system for leaks. Check parking break for correct functionality. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.

7 UTILITY SYSTEMS 7.0 Description:
7.0.1 Body: The Maverick has an (optional) fabric covering (“tuxedo”) that covers the main chassis and engine compartment, a semi-rigid hood, optional fenders (front and rear), a windshield, and optional sun visors. These are non-structural and not safety of flight components. A storage compartment or bag (usually part of the tuxedo) is also provided for storing the parachute.
7.0.2 Wing Deployment System: The mast and spar system hold the wing in a position that, only with relative wind, is flight-ready. The spar is attached to the mast and extends to form a semi-rigid support for the leading edge of the parachute. The mast has ropes internally and a mechanism that allows a user to raise the spar for flight and lower it in a controlled manner. These are not structural or safety of flight systems. ‘Line Control’ is also implemented to prevent lines from being caught in the propeller when the parachute is not inflated.
7.0.3 Ground Operation Utilities: Head lights, brake lights, turn signal lights, parking brake, and horn. These are not safety of flight components.
7.1 Inspection:
7.1.1 Body: The fabric covering should not show major fraying, tearing, degradation, or loose stitching or fasteners. Inspect materials and all attachment points to the vehicle of all body components to ensure that no part will come off in flight or interfere with safe operation of the aircraft. All bolts should be secure. No special tools or parts are required to accomplish this task.
7.1.2 Wing Deployment System: Inspect mast and spar components for cracking, delamination, nicks, or other damage, especially at joints and mounting points. Inspect the attachment of the parachute to the spar to ensure it is sound. Inspect all ropes for abrasion and fraying, as well as the attachment of the spar to the mast and all knots/joints.

14 SAFETY DIRECTIVES 14.0 General: An SLSA may have a safety directive issued against it or a component part. Beyond
Roads will issue the directive as outlined in the applicable ASTM continued airworthiness specification. Beyond Roads will publish these safety directives on its web site and notify owners who properly maintain valid contact information with the Beyond Roads. Failure by the aircraft owner to maintain a proper address with Beyond Roads will void the aircraft’s airworthiness, until corrected.
14.1 Requirement for Compliance: For SLSA, service and safety directives are considered as mandatory tasks in order to maintain a condition of safe operation and compliance with the applicable original manufacturer’s ASTM design specification. A notice of such directives will also be issued to ELSA owners, but compliance will not be considered mandatory for continued airworthiness.
14.2 Instructions: Beyond Roads will supply the applicable instructions to comply with any safety directive, which will include:
14.2.1 A list of the tools needed to accomplish the task,
14.2.2 A list of the parts needed to perform the task,
14.2.3 Type of maintenance (for example, line, heavy, overhaul),
14.2.4 The level of certification needed to accomplish the task (for example, A&P, repairman inspection, etc.),
14.2.5 Detailed instructions and diagrams as needed to perform the task, and
14.2.6 Method to test/inspect to verify the task was accomplished properly.
14.3 Safety directives are considered as mandatory tasks in order to maintain a condition of safe operation and compliance with the applicable original ASTM design specification.
14.4 List of current safety directives, if any:
None, as of Sept 1, 2011
