A classic that could still sell today . Just needs some interest ... Todays paramotors or even electric large scale R/C motors could be fitted .

Thanks for sharing !!😊

Motor is hanging from rubber mounts should be sitting on them ... If they fail the Motor can change angle . Not safe . Maybe simple change . Or add Safety Loop stainless cable so motor cannot fall if mount fails in flight .... Add a bolt between the mounts just a bit loose could be good safety backup.
