I'm scared to try to fly this V-2 thing from HobbyKing, but let's try anyway!

So friends of mine had the first version and I saw them fly it. Pretty cool, but I read horror stories about launching nightmares, so never got one, until now. This the HK ParaMotor V-2 (not to be confused with a ParaEngine) It's supposed to be easier to launch than V1. So not knowing what to expect or how it would react and with lots of trees around, I made the attempt in this maiden flight. Here is the link to the how to launch and crash the V-2. Here is the crash video link. • Proper Launching and f... Enjoy and please subscribe. Thanks. ~Dave

I was lucky on this one. Check out my newer video, as that had more learning curves thrown at me. But either way, thanks so kindly. I appreciate you.

[@Denny_H]

Dave, you just boosted my confidence!!! I'm viewing your video now because I'm assembling my HK V2 Paramotor. I had the V1 and did not have very much success launching it, and gave up and sold it. I heard the V2 was much easier, and watching you launch it just now gives me hope and now I'm excited to get out and try it again!

[@NightFlyyer]

Right on. I did not have the v1, but still the v2 takes some practice. Make sure to watch my other videos on this, like how to launch it and crash it. Here is a link to one of them. Thanks so kindly and happy flying. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2OcYaCHZspkedU

I enjoyed watching you learning the power application balancing altitude. I did the same in a single seat ultralight on my first flight. When I landed, I pushed the ultralight back to the shed. My legs were so wobbly I was done for the day. You did better than I did on my first flight.

[@NightFlyyer]

Well said. Thanks so much.

[@dkhallal]

Great fun! I actually built one a few years back and used their old kite, which was very poorly designed. I used an Opale motor mount/ring and made my own frame. I tried to find a KZbinr who had many videos on RC paramotors and showed how to make your own kite from scratch!😲 Hobbyking eventually partnered with him to redesign theirs but ended up having a falling out, but I believe what you have is the fruit of his labor. Painless360 has a multi part videos series of how to set up the whole thing, but you got the mechanics (flew great by the way, could use a bit more weight, I added a steel plate under my battery) but most importantly the radio set up. Right now it looks like you are only getting half the throw on the servos. The “arms” should be able to come all the way down. It’s not a very intuitive process so watch his video, it was a big help for me. Good luck and happy flying, glad to see you back on the Tube!

[@NightFlyyer]

That is great. The entire body of this is steel already. My servos are big metal gear ones, and set for full 150% throw and they work fine. No problem steering. Thanks. Heres a link to my crash video, for more. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2OcYaCHZspkedU

Glad to see you got one, the V1 is my favorite Night Flyer! Add some red and green LEDs to the top of the prop guard and your color of choice on the back and you’ll love it! It really illuminates the sail quite well

[@NightFlyyer]

Right on. I did add red and green lights, as you saw in the end of the video, but not on the top of the guard. It has a light bar that really lights up the sail. Stay tuned for the night flight video. Thanks and happy flying.

[@stefanastley]

I have the V1 and much like taking a dump, launching the thing is an act I like to do in private 😂... It's embarassing when it goes wrong and you feel an undue pressure to let go of it when the wing isn't optimally kiting when you have an audience. Kudos to you for launching on the channel! From your other video it looks disappointingly like the wing is just as happy to collapse as the V1. I normally fly in a very open space away from any obstructions and with zero wind. In a park with even a gentle flow of air, any turbulence from trees or buildings seems too much for it. Fascinating model though and always turns heads! I will probably spend money retrofitting lights to my V1 rather than invest in a new V2. Make sure to get your prop brake set to on Dave before too many more flights, they chew up the lines pretty easy I hear.

[@NightFlyyer]

Your right! It takes some finesse for sure and I have been known to untangle. If you saw any of the recent ones, especially in pitch dark, you know. I never had a V1, and they say launching the V2 is easier. There is always anticipation before launching for me. I put lights on, as in my latest video, so good luck with that and thanks. Here's the pitch dark video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3bXhXSueNiWm6M

Hey Dave, first time viewer! That is real cool! It must have some great loitering capabilities. I’m just curious how well it would fly where I’m at. The land all around is brown, so uplift is pretty strong and there is ALWAYS a 5-10 knot wind.

[@NightFlyyer]

Hi and welcome to my channel. The main thing, is NOT to use much power. It just cruises. Our winds are about the same. It climbs high when it is breezy, without moving forward.

i wonder what the big differense is between the v1 and v2. I have the v1 and flown it only ones. probably to much wind and olmost lost it many failed launches and some how a rolling take off worked for me. now ive seen yours and the long flight time i want to try it again. i have to look in the pull mixing on my radio its totally different than mine and i think thats why i had so many problems gonne try to mix the brake on my throttle stick. i keep trying elevator up.... and ending in a stall . 😅

[@NightFlyyer]

Well the only thing that the throttle stick does is make it go up and down. Not sure putting the brake on there will help. I never really think I used it, as I just pulled a little up (now brake) out of habit in the turns, but not sure if anything happened. It might be better to limit the amount of throttle. It does not like full throttle. Thanks and hope it works out for you.

[@jeep44xhi87]

Dave, where can I find the instructions to download? Also what’s the best receiver to purchase for this? Thanks…

[@NightFlyyer]

The PDF instruction are on the HobbyKing website. I just used the 6 ch Orange Rx. It is dependable and works with Spektrum Transmitters. But it depends on what TX you have. It must be a programmable TX for adjusting servo throws. Thanks and have fun.
