I bought the garmin emap off ebay,they are a couple years old now but I think they are exellent,big screen,track back loads of other features and not bad for about £70, Alti/Vario I got the flytec 6005 from fly bubble for about £160 again many features that I havent used yet but well pleased with it. good luck Gaz

-

You cant all be flying with all these high winds we've had? If you've had a nice spell and managed to get up then I'm jealous!!
-
I have one of those too and it works great after I fixed the problem with the speed-air helmet system! There was a little mod I found on the web,useful if your using it elsewhere other than flying that is to drill a 2mm hole on the the front right next to the 'J' (using just the bit by hand).This reveals the mic pick up that sits behind the cover giving a muffled sound when you transmit from new,now it sounds great! good luck gaz

where in herts you based mate,im in biggleswade but moving to hitchin next month,there is a herts club on this web site Gaz

Just bought the fuji finepix A825,seems a very nice camera and simple to use,just need some nice weather to take to the skies with! cheers for your reviews Gaz
-
Nice one cheers for that,isnt it abit awkward taking shots whilst still having the throttle in your hand?
-
Well done that man, excellent feeling a! It only gets better now. I did my 13th flight on sunday and loving it,was like a silky smooth sheet of ice not a bump or thermal in sight! all the best Gaz
-
what camera shall I get for under £100 for up the field use and flying around taking snaps at good quality? Theres too many to choose from! Gaz
-
Hi mate,cant comment on the wings myself but heard good reviews on the revo but I use the pap ros 125 and absolutley love it,light and powerful which is what I wanted,I fly a dudek reaction wing. Good combo in my personal opinion and experience,good luck with choice gaz
-
I use the ozee(exeat i think!) thermal suit which I bought from the show and is well toasty,the helmet is a speedair(copy of the nac model i think) from ebay.I think a few of us had some issues with it working etc but managed to sort mine out by getting the ear defenders re-wired!! Gloves are a fishing type neoprene again very well and manageable. have fun gaz
-
Blimey,that sounds like alot of power! I have the ros 125 and absolutley love it. The pap is light, reliable and powerfull which is what I wanted. Ive no issues with reliability what so ever. 100% PAP all the way
-
Just a quick question,what are those heated gloves you were wearing? Are they the disposable hand warmers that the golfers wear,apparently thet work well for about 8 hrs and are very thin
-
wow, they look amazing
-
Ive just bought the new flytec 6005 which seems to be very good,has many features on it. Got it from flybubble.com for 160 I think gaz
-
Ive got the noel wittals' from the ground up,its a really good read and has helped me in my learning process since i started.also got risk and reward which is ok too,hope this helps gaz
-
Dont like fords!! I like the mercs speed aswel! also i would like 6 speed. Im gonna have a think about it and decide in the new year after i spoke to the bank! cheers gaz
-
BLOODY HELL!! abit of bad luck with that one then,on the other hand i like the 2002 passat 1.9 130bhp 5dr estate,could be a good option,seem to have enough rm with seats folded down and i still could use it as a car too, not forgetting transporting the paramotor gear about! not bad for about £4500?
-
ouch! as you say it has to happen sometime! badluck though mate,as mercs go i still really like the vitos for the size etc. It wont be a new one mind you but will try and get the best for the money,seen a few on auto trader 3-4 yr old,what sort of mileage is bad? eg my mate has an 98 sprinter with 235,000 on it Is 90-100,000 nothing to worry about then on these vitos? cheers gaz
-
cheers for that matey! I looked at the transporter and thought they hold there money well,goes to show if they prove to be that reliable its worth paying the cash,will look into that model,i dont think yours would come in handy with me being a sparky pulling up on site using a winch and a ramp!!
-
Looking at getting my own van soon,going self employed etc, My choice are a mercedes vito,vauxhall vivaro or a volkswagon transporter. Anyone any thoughts? gaz
-
Welcome mate,hope you get all your kit soon and best off luck with the up and coming flights,i have only 7-8hrs under my belt and am totally loving it,bit grim with the weather at the mo but good things come to those who wait! fly safe gaz
-
Welcome mate, you are near to me! Im in biggleswade and fly at a few different places,over bambury where my instructor lives,sometimes at royston heath and an occasional fly where i live.getting bloody cold now so im waiting till the show at the nec to get a nice thermal suit and gloves! gaz
