Hey guys thanks for all the info its much appreciated. Thatwill give me something to do over the weekend. Thanks Alan for the pic and illustrations they are a great help, think i will get flight number 13 out of the way first. Or maybe i will skip that one and go straight to number 14 Not that im superstitous or anything.
Will let you know how i get on!!
Thanks Clive
Yer ive looked into it and i would only use it on full fast trim. Read the manual so to speak, its the setting up of it that i want to get right. Its about the only thing that they dont tell you how to use. Is there any where that explains the setup line lengths etc.
Maybe some pics or is it quite straight forward.
Thanks Clive
Ok im thinking of fitting my speed bar and Im up to 12 flights and clocked up 4 hours.
Should i get more time or flights under my belt first im flying a pap pa 125 and 31 synth.
Should i get an instructor to set this up when im ready ?I feel confident and feel the need for speed, as i am now going further afield.
Many Thanks Clive
Mat its just down the river from you, if you look across you will probably see it. Its over towards wooden ferres i think.
The cross member is standard on the new pa 125 1400 i do believe. it s to stop the cage from flexing on powered forwards.
Thanks Clive
I was flying ten minuites before hand and saw it hapen. We checked the brakes and take of position of trimers all was normal. He walked away from it but was well shaken up, luckily enough he landed in nice soft ploughed mud.
Hes right hand was definatley up at all times.
The parajet took a beating, on coming down he was spiraling down very quick.
He is now considering a new synthesis if he decides to fly again.
But hes said that he will not fly the gt again.
Thanks Clive
So what caused the wing to fly so slow in the first place. Onlyleft hand brake was aplied and it was a fast run up at take of. The rate of climb was slow and there was no wind. I am a low hours pilot myself so would like to know what was going on.
Thanks Clive
I have done the mods on exhaust and carb. Replaced the starter rope for a stronger one, have not checked inside gearbox. I have also had two new pieces of stainles steel replaced where
the prop hit them when i was forward launching. I also think that the engine mounts are to long and soft. And any small impact will see the engine bouncing about, as mine did. Did you replace your mounts for stronger ones ?
Thanks Clive
rigger whats the link for your vid all i can see is an empty box with a small coloured square in top corner. Think my pc is up the creek, can watch vids on you tube.
Thanks Clive
What hapened here then, pilot was ok but a bit bruised.
Could of been alot worse. There was zero wind and he only aplies brake to turn left, against the torque. Is this the reason for the stall.

Thanks for the link, not sure if my garmin supports it it though. Does not seem to work, or maybe its me. Does anyone on here use the 60csx. If so what do you use
Thanks Clive
Ok just brought myself a garmin 60csx gps, it comes with mapsource.Which are very basic mapswith no detail on them. What are the best maps for me to buy for paramotoring, they seem pretty expensive, so i want to buy the right one.
Many thanks Clive
