I've Created A Monster!!! - My New Paramotor...

[@TuckerGott]

This new setup RIPS!!! I cannot wait to get it in the air and put some time on it. Stay tuned as that will probably be the next video. In addition to test flying the motor, what questions would you guys want to see answered in that video?

[@nategoodwin3329]

Powerloop?? 🤔

[@ImBradfordM]

When will people wake up to this plandemic? I wanna get over there and learn to fly. Stuck in Prison Australia.

[@visaraloshi3362]

YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A VIDEO I LOVE THE VIDS

[@libertyrevolutionary1776]

Tucker: Pops bubble wrap in New Jersey "neighbors probably think they hear gunshots" Me: lives in Missouri and can just go shooting in my front yard and shoot binary explosives... lol

[@michaeljo6976]

That's rad man! Looks great!

[@WoodysGamertag]

Just a note on the shoulder mounted reserve connection. Another bonus is that when you come down you're no longer in the seat that's built when the carabiners are pulled. Instead, you're out of the seat and ready to PLF.

[@mmcowan]

Tell us how you know. ;-)

[@Richplaceholder]

You mean ready for the best splits you've ever done

[@jobflobad0by0b]

Should you repack a brand new reserve?

[@jobflobad0by0b]

Do do you need to qualified person to do it because I'm not sure if I know how to do it myself...?

[@mitchwinters864]

I’d be curious how many people (outside airborne) who know how to PLF... Heck, most cant do a proper PLF with 800ft AGL of preparation.... Its a pretty motor though!

[@ChristopherKleman]

Good point on the reserve bridal - I just purchased my first paramotor (2nd hand) and the reserve was routed behind the swing arm. The last thing I want to do after thoroughly crapping my pants in the air is have the land on my side coming down! Thanks for pointing that out - I didn't even think about it until you mentioned it.

[@petemac7969]

During the hang test, Big Bertha rolled backwards and I was waiting for the bike to take a tumble! Great job with this. Can't wait to see it fly!

[@mikeplays2920]

Thank you so much Tucker for what you do for this community everyone I talk to say they got into the sport from you keep up the good work. Tucker is the only One to interact with his community thank you for the ❤️

[@TuckerGott]

Thanks man! That's what it's all about. 😁

[@JudsonGraham]

I wish parajet sent me the entire warehouse of swag

[@DanielJonesParamotor]

I do like how Parajet’s harness integrates a side mount reserve neatly. I moved my reserve from front to side expecting it to be temporary for a competition last year but it’s quite nice having it out of the way. The only thing I miss is having the Velcro patch to stick a phone to. Nice build 👍

[@johnnukecop]

I have to thank you for the great videos and the tremendous inspiration they represent!! I’m 64 so I wonder if my knees are to new roles as landing gear. I keep thinking that a FAR 103-compliant trike will be my path forward. I admire the work of your editing and the joy of your flying!!

[@kurtcraig3421]

that was a great insight into the parajet reserve shoot. cant wait to see this thing climb out.

[@waggythegeek2030]

Yoooo, I have been WAITING for content like this!! The mechanic side of paramotoring seems super interesting, you should do more videos about pre-flight, post-flight, and engine care! Maybe something to serve as a basic introduction to motor maintenance?

[@jcast25]

This!!!

[@FrayAdjacentTX]

Another reason for lefthand throttle (with a righthand torque engine) is that on launch if you need a hand to adjust your seat, you can use your right hand and keep your left hand on the left brake should you need to counter torque. ;)

[@sgtcompton8838]

From the beginning you always find ways to push me to spend mass amounts of money! I appreciate everything you do for the community, I would love to link up when I get up in the air after some training from the best 👌

[@Robbo1966]

Doing that winter thing and checking out some old YT video's, this is a great video Tucker, cheers and take care

[@ronkendall2930]

Before installing the plastic ring around the gage lay it out in the sun to soften it & make it more pliable. Also works great when mounting tires.

[@mattcero1]

Consider checking the carburetor for gunk prior to running it. I had a snowmobile end up running very lean and burning a hole in a piston as a result of gunk getting into the engine during non wintertime storage. The jet was partially clogged and I was simply broken down on the trail in the U.Peee. Having this happen in the sky wouldn't be so good.

[@kevincanfly]

Yay! What do ya know?... Tucker gets more free Sh!t... stoked for you, and also not jelly at all...

[@chrissmall6119]

I'm so glad someone else said it so I wouldn't have to. lmao

[@Emily_M81]

regarding the throttle thing, it might help people to think of it like this. Most people are right handed, and yet, right-handed string musicians fret/finger with their left hand. So to me it seems completely normal to use the throttle with the left hand (as a right-handed person). I guess just a real world example of why it's not so unintuitive. And holy crap it pushed the trike back lol. Amazing.

[@jaylayton28]

You need to do more of these builds if possible. I know it’s expensive but awesome too see you don’t have to settle for factory.

[@projectdad6561]

It’s awesome to hear the power band kick in! That is gonna be sick

[@williamdew]

Always a joy to see you do what you do best :D What maneuver has been the most difficult for you to learn?

[@pizzamandellaxx6979]

Yesterday, I had my first duo paramotorflight. Wauw, I like it a lot. Thanks to you Tucker Gott for showing the world all about paramotors, I can't wait to start my training.

[@flyingmollywhop4228]

I wish I could. Maybe one day I will afford it. Unfortunately I'm on disability so I don't know if I will ever be able to.

[@pizzamandellaxx6979]

@@flyingmollywhop4228 Well, on a trike, I think there could be possibilities for shure! The price indeed isn't the cheapest, I've been working hard in between schooldays for over a year now, and maybe in a couple months, I will be able to afford some second hand gear or new gear.

[@pizzamandellaxx6979]

@@flyingmollywhop4228 I wish you the best. It's absolutely stunning

[@ezl8002]

I can't wait to see how this thing flies and I think you should write a beginner's bible to paramotoring, Do's and Don'ts! You are instilling a wealth of information to newcomers to the hobby! Thanks Tucker for this video!

[@ckearnes]

I love all this content and appreciate your knowledge! I am new to this and really want to get in to flying! Your channel is a great wealth of knowledge!

[@bikinglikebecker]

Got to rig up a CVT Clutch on the motor.. like on a snowmobile.. might be able to increase speed by another 20mph... throw on a turbo or small supercharger & adding a short light adjustable carbon wing under the seat will also add some lift... & extra speed...

[@NoneYaBidness762]

The A&P in me wants those engine mount bolts safety wired.

[@Ken_Dalton]

Who else can't wait for next video? #flythatbeast🤙

[@seeratlasdtyria4584]

Gotta Love your Car collection! From that, Parajet's big time support, and the size and nature of your equipment garage/hanger, I guess we can assume that 1. you're either independently wealthy, and/or 2. that your youtube channel is paying off like a big dog. Either way, you look to be having TOO MUCH FUN!!!...Now all you need is one of those inexpensive but hella fun little ultralight amphibious planes that you can open the canopy and fish out of :) imho probably the most fun you can have in the air, outside of a privat jet with a full bedroom in it ;) (Yes lots of em exist!).

[@domg7359]

Man when you started swinging on the hang lines under power I thought you were going to go right back into that motorcycle behind you! Stay safe.

[@johnrutkowski9005]

God that's such a sick setup, my next paramotor is definitely going to be parajet

[@gyongyossypeter4485]

They're good but waaaay too expensive. Check out P2F, Skymax or Gravity instead ☺️😉🤭

[@johnrutkowski9005]

@@gyongyossypeter4485 I've seen those, but the fit, finish, simplicity, and design of the maverick always catches my eye. The gravity motors are pretty sweet though

[@gyongyossypeter4485]

@@johnrutkowski9005 yes, I have to agree. They are beautiful with a great finish. I have a P2F RS Titan which is also great and a bit cheaper but I agree, the Parajet is another class ☺️👍

Yer parajet all the way. Even if tucker is being paid to say . The quality is amazing and the after care is great.

[@Pain1969KILLer]

I am so excited to fly one of these. I'm currently too heavy to feel comfortable flying one, but I'm working out and eating right now, and hopefully, in the next year I'll be in the air!

[@johnnukecop]

Best wishes for great success. I’m 64 and have lost the weight but I wonder if my knees are to new roles as landing gear. I keep thinking that a FAR 103-compliant trike will be my path forward. Keep the faith and you will end up in the air!

[@tysonfriend8789]

Hope you’re close to your goal man 🤙

[@stephen_crumley]

How is your weight loss journey going? Been in the air yet?

[@mtkoslowski]

Important safety tip: get a *”D”* license parachute rigger to pack your reserve and have it regularly re-packed by same.

[@invii187_]

Liked for the bubble wrap popping!

[@MADDOG100ful]

As in electrical tape, also buy quality zip ties there is the generic / cheap ones that come apart in uv sunlight exposure very quickly. :)

[@supergokufan23498]

Hi Tucker! Great video, I will be getting a paramotor when I’m older so we can fly.

[@supergokufan23498]

And I would recommend myself to use some E props propellers

[@bbrinck093]

Hey man, I was wondering if you could do a video on explaining the different parts on a paramotor and in general how they work. Just started with paramotoring and I am completely new to engines and don't know much about the different parts and how the circuit works. Would also be interesting to know what maintenance you need to do on a regular basis :-) Greetings from Luxembourg :-)

[@mwethereld]

I have a new rig being pieced up now, Sky 150 motor, Parajet Maverick frame retracta trike with larger air fill tires, triple blade E-Prop,,, thing has loads of power! will be a fun trike

[@GolfFoxtrot22]

I like the underseat reserve option on that harness, its always there and leaves the pockets free.

[@TuckerGott]

I've tried the under seat on my Scout a few times but never really liked it. I like being able to stand straight up and I always felt like it was in the way. It was extremely beneficial for the Icarus race though as I didn't really have anywhere else to put it. 😂

[@GolfFoxtrot22]

@@TuckerGott I know what you mean but from my experience the Dudek Powerset comfort doesn't bind up. I found it a huge bonus on my UK Icarus X as it kept the pockets and from free for kits. The joy of paramotoring, we do what makes it comfortable for our flying style. I liked your comments on the reserve install. The amount of times I've seen them routed incorrectly scares me.

[@andypowell7844]

It was a simile (not a metaohor) you were searching for and I'd like to gift you this one. Packing your reserve shouldn't be 'like stuffing a chicken with a turkey'. 😉 Your videos rock dude, and you inspire me. My age and dodgy knees are against me but I still might still be capable....

After it cooled down I hope you rechecked the torque on all the mounting bolts after that first run.

[@survivalishardstaystorng]

when it comes to having your throttle in your non-dominant hand it really won't matter if use both your hands I use both my hands I'm right-handed for writing and for throwing overhand but if we're just about anything else I can use my left hand just as good as my right in fact I use my left more than my right when I drive I also use my left the hold my cell phone more than I use my right I believe

I am a pretty big dude (6'3, 320lbs [actively working on that number]) Just want to know if this dream is a feasible one for the future. If so I will DEFINITELY be buying a paramotor and a ton of training as soon as I can afford to.

The belt slippage brings up a great topic - since you've been flying a while, how many times have you had to replace a belt? Have they aged out and slipped, or catastrophically failed? I think setting the tension on a new one would make for a great video. Can't wait to see this one fly!! Thing sounds like it's gonna RIP!! 60° climb angle ahead, LOL! 🤘

[@5123rick]

Belts never fail but they stretch and need re tensioning every now and again. Can use an app to check it by plucking it like a guitar string and checking it's frequency. Belt gets replaced at 100hrs
