Paramotor Events Calendar

Due to the success of the last Bore Chasers events V the field size, there will once again be a limit of 150 pilots for this one. If you want a place then YOU MUST RSVP please. 

ONLY 'PILOTS' NEED TO RSVP A PLACE. Guests of members do not need to RSVP

If you have not been to this one before, I am sure that all who have will agree that it's not one to be missed! 

The location of the take off field is just perfect for following the tides that will be passing though over the weekend. 

We will have the bar team back to take care of drinks. 

For food, we can cater for ALL from chunks of red meat to seeds and lightly flavoured fruit tea ;-) 

Camping for Tents, caravans and motorhomes is £10 for the landowner. 

We will also be asking everyone for £10 which we will be donating to the local charity link below.

Guests non flying, £15 Please pay on arrival.

Limited family / holiday accommodation is available walking distance from the flying field. (ideal for those who would like a bit of luxury) Please contact Kathy Turner on 07970 771 039 for information, availability and pricing.

THIS EVENT IS FOR FULL MEMBERS ONLY.

If you are not a full member you need to upgrade to one before you RSVP. Non paid members will be taken off the list to allow space for those that are. (link below to VIP membership). For £30 per year you can come to all 3 events FOC! :-), triple the fun!! 

 

 

The address is: 

Milton End Farm, Arlingham, Gloucestershire, GL2 7JH.

Here is a short video from a past event :-) 

Also, check out the full article from the last Bore Chasers event link below. :-)

I am so disappointed that, due to a calendar clash, I have to withdraw from flying at this event this time.  

I hope the weather will be perfect for you all, have a great time, catch up with you all soon 😪

I'm working Friday and Sunday and so my place is up for grabs. If I can make Saturday afternoon I can just be a day visitor, I guess.

    • Hello I live in Essex but most weekends I visit my partner in MK , I’ve never seen anyone up that way , woukd love to be able to come see you guys at some point, do you fly from a site near to MK ? 
    • It gets done from time to time but its far from ideal! At best, you will damage a lot of expensive gear. At worst, you could do yourself a lot of damage (or worse) Furthermore, it is very difficult to gain any confidence in the vacuum of solitude. Try to find a local pilot and pick his brain how he got into the air.
    • That does look a bit steep... Not a million miles away as far as the thrust line goes but I personally prefer to have my prop bolt-upright under power, not as comfy but it has its advantages. A slight angle change between the trike and paramotor using different nylon mounting blocks might help get that wheel down a bit. How does it hang with no fuel in it? Smaller fuel load behind you with a fuel bladder on your lap (I use MSR Dromedary water bags 6L and 10L) "might" help a bit but its not ideal at all! Getting those hang points further back is the way to go if its possible... I have never found the hang points comfortable, always getting bruises on my shoulders due to the limited space but as long as your arms are free to articulate, you ought to be able to get comfy once in the air with your hands on the controls. Not sure you are gaining much with those extensions... Again, once airborne you ought to be able to shimmy the seat-base forward to support your legs/leg   When flying my trike, the front wheel only seemed to moved a few inches between legs-up and legs dangling so I don't think your missing leg is the bulk of the issue... Get those hang points back and live with feeling pinched against the frame until you are in the air... You do seem to have quite a large gap between the back of your shoulders and the frame.
