Setting Vertical Angles
Vertical connection between enclosures and to the flying bars is achieved using the Q-D
Flying Plate and D-ring system originally developed for Turbosound's TMS-3 flying systems.
However, instead of fixed-length steel connections, an adjustable length chain is used.
(Figure. 6)
The vertical inter-cabinet angles available are as follows:

† fit biscuit before chains ‡ greater than maximum length
The top chain from the flybar to the first cabinet can be adjusted to gain more height on the
system and also improve the looks. Alternatively if you are flying four or more cabinets deep
with a lot of kelp it is good to give the top chain some additional length as this makes
racheting easier.
When flying four Flashlight boxes deep the top biscuit can be difficult to fit depending on
how much vertical separation you have on the boxes. However if the top row consists of
bass cabinets where no vertical separation is required then you should use eight links
between the top two rows of cabinets, which requires you to fit the biscuits before fitting the
chains, thus locking the biscuits in place.
