  1. Try these : http://ukgarminairmap.wikispaces.com/latestfiles I think they work with any Garmin mapping GPS (might be wrong). I've just uploaded them to my GPSMAP 78s and they work fine. Tim.
  2. Thanks for all your replies on this. I've ordered a new reflex wing now anyway but will probably give the pulsar a go just out of curiosity.
  3. Hi, I posted yesterday and got a message that the post needed to be approved by a moderator before it can be seen but it hasn't showed up yet. Is this standard for every time everybody posts? Can anyone tell me how long this process usually takes or is there a technical problem and my post has gone missing? Thanks ! Tim.
  4. Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Years ago (in the days before paramotor specific wings) I was told that it was fine to use a paraglider wing with a motor even though you would be well over the certified weight range of the glider. Is this still accepted? (I appreciate that some gliders are not suited to power use but assuming that the glider is suitable for power use). For example - I have a Windtek Pulsar (DHV1-2) that I want to use to give paramotoring a try before committing to buying a new reflex wing. I fly it without power toward the top of the weight range (120Kgs) but with a motor would be nearer 150Kgs with a full tank. Is this acceptable and what about things like higher stall speeds (would it be too high) etc. One last question, am I right in assuming that standard glider risers will be fine with a low hang point motor and I would only need to change to power risers for high hang point motors (and to get trim tabs)? Thanks in advance for any help. I am planning to do some training and will obviously ask all the questions then but just trying to work out exactly what I'm going to need. Tim.
