The British Microlight Aircraft Association and the organisers of the 15th FAI World Microlight Championship and 9th FAI World Paramotor Championship welcome you to the official competition website. 

 

These pages will contain all the information required for competing pilots and teams, for volunteers and marshals, for visiting spectators, and for prospective and current sponsors. Please note that these pages will be updated regularly so keep checking in. You can also follow developments on our facebook page and on twitter.

 

Our objective is to provide a fantastic event that sets new standards for Microlight and Paramotor competitions. Our guiding principles are:

  • Plenty of tasks that are challenging but not unnecessarily complex

  • Fast and efficient scoring

  • Good social atmosphere and high levels of spectator engagement

  • Efficient communication between microlight and paramotor groups

  • Reliable facilities and infrastructure

 

We have an excellent location for this competition, in central England with plenty of open space and beautiful countryside for flying in.

    • Living in Evesham and looking for areas to fly in the local areas, iny information would be greatly appreciated. Would be great to meet and fly with others. Many thanks 
    • Hi, Alan, thank you for the grade. There are no music in the video.  The sound is true  sound of propellers, no lawn mower impurities ). As for sizes of the frame, different test pilots (we used 2 pilots services: 170 cm height (in this video) and 195 cm height) did not experience any problems during dress-undress, take off and the landing. Against, you just sit down in our chair before the take off, attach everything, then lean down and stand up and you will have 40 cm distance between the frame and land even if you are 165 cm height. So, we do note use any wheels, no problem for comfortable take off. Moreover, when you land, you hang a little more on the lines, and the distance between the frame and the ground becomes even greater. Please, check the landing video in the attached file. IMG_4198.mov
    • That does have an unusual sound, doesn't appear particularly loud. Congrats on the flight duration. That cage is huge though, does it have little wheels on the bottom? Can see that being problematic with less than flat take off area, plus less than perfect landings which we all have from time to time.
    • Hi guys. Our group has created new type of electric paramotor (called Arni) with extremely (up to 2,5 hours) flight duration. The paramotor has 2 coaxial contra rotating electric engines with huge (1800 mm diameter) propellers (2 blades the 1st & 3 blades the 2nd) with 95 kg thrust. The torgue is ZERO. Moreover doubled power plant means extra safe, as one engine break means nothing: the pilot can continue cruise flight with maximum thrust 40kg. (this thrust will not create huge torque). The batteries arranged from both side of pilot doing maximum comfort by the right weight distribution. Batteries could be quiqtly dropped with one action of the pilot. Each battery has USB ports and could be used as huge power bank (for headlights, for example). Each blade of propellers has its own small hub, which could fix the angle before the blade will be installed (by only one qualm removed pin) to the big propeller hub. All system weight is 30 kg (for more than 1 hour flight) and 38 kg for the flight more than 2 hours. The paramotor could be quiqly disassembled and stowed in the bag for golf (200 litres volume). www.skywardtechnologies.group  
    • Just thought I would say hi. I am new to paramotoring and will be booking a course next year. I’m sure I will be looking for advice at some point on equipment but will leave that to once I am training. Hope to fly with some of you in the future.
