So do you start out with the line paid out downwind and then inflate the glider and fly up if the wind will lift you or do you start cranking it in immediately

Im very respectful of acro and high energy manuevers. I really need to do an SIV and break that mental barrier. As a fixed-wing CFI it's my job to know the absolute limits of the aircraft and I hate not knowing that on my paraglider
Is there a paramotor group near New Orleans? Would love to watch in person. Been watching paramotor on youtube for a few years now but getting close to possibly learning to fly this year or next.

It’d be interesting to see how practical it’d be to take off by gaining takeoff speed with a hoverboard, leaving it behind for perhaps a friend to collect after takeoff

Great video!! I’m getting a PAP Tinox dual start and just cancelled an order for a Scout EFI. I’ve only flown a Scout and was shocked how comfortable a friends Tinox was. I really wish PAP came with the EFI option though. I’m grateful to my friend and for your video and a few other reviews I’ve seen, I definitely made the right choice deciding on the PAP!! Your comment at 13:09 about the “big American pilot” made me laugh. I’m in healthcare, there are WAY too many fat Americans!!!! 😂 Great video!

Hi Matt. Thanks for the nice video. Question : how’s that bolero 6 performing with the paramotor. Do you use it as your main wing ? I’ve got a large size bolero 6, using it for paragliding only, but I want to get a para motor and was wondering if I can use it for a bit - till I get a proper patamotor wing. I would love to hear your testimony on the wing suitability.

Not good anymore unless you like old stuff that goes super slow only + oscillating... Get a ITV Baja Motor if you want to have a good time in free flight + Motor flight, thank me later when you smile all the time!

Can you help me out with what size line clips those are on your frame?
@minyardmatt5 ай бұрын
Yeah they are the factory line guides that you can see on macfly website if you shop for trikes and if I had to measure they are about the size of your fist or hand grabbing onto the cage rim. Hope that helps, we can send pics with a tape measure if you need exactly but in any case a 4-6 inches line guide works wonders and is plenty enough

When u began to twist up what should u do?
@minyardmatt6 ай бұрын
Well in a general case if you have altitude while twisted, you can check if your wing is flying straight + level basically under control or not... If it's under control you can untwist yourself and go on with your flight... If you are a bit out of control you should toss the reserve parachute out immediately or use a cutaway base system if you have that option and want a new glider to appear overhead. Otherwise you need to fix the twists and enjoy the flight. I was trying a certain technical thing to stall my wing and have it take the sat direction to helicopter before just allowing it to have traction in forward flight and slipped up ... I think if I had more altitude I would have tried to untwist but I just tossed my reserve as I was super low and going in the water at this point already! Totally enjoyed it because of my position over water and soft terrain, with the safety boats available and already in the water I was a bit more comfortable to toss a reserve in the middle of the ocean! Overall good times id do it again :)
