  1. once I figure out it's rpm and changing the prop where sell them ? and if it's over or under pitched how would I figure out when I go to buy one to get the right pitch . I don't know much about pitch and how they do that may be the lad I know does as he's been flying for some yrs now .

  2. hi all a little update . I took the raket home build out today for it's first flight . well it did fly a little , There did not seem like there was enough power . I don't know yet what to do it should of got me up better than what it did . So could a different prop make that difference and where would I get a 130 prop from for the raket ?. not sure if I have the right reduction drive ratio . some pics of my paramotor on forum if any onecan tell from them.Or to get a tuned exhaust . any opinions what to do . ?

    Thanks

  3. HI im looking for a paramotor wing or a paraglider wing .

    if possible could i get one for around 600 ?

    I want a safe slow wing :D

    im around 130kg all up with paramotor fuel ect

    is it possible to get a good one for that price range ?

    and what should i go for and where to look?

    I have an airwave logic dhv 1 that i got used off my pg instructor but its all up weight is 95kg and not for paramotoring.

    Thanks

  4. Hi i have been looking for a paramotor harness a used one but why are they so hard to come by ? wings and every thing else secondhand are every where but harnesses.

    i dont really want to buy a new one as im on a budget but what would be the cheaper one to go for thats ok ?

    I have been looking at the high-fly harness with reserve pocket - any good ?

    Thanks

  5. yeah lol i did not notice she came out .. but she would not get past theres a wall either side its really narrow my cage was about touching each wall... moving soon bigger garden for me to move in :wink:

    I will get a vid when i try it out .. :wingover:

  6. HI Jock . I have got a few little things to sort like fuel tank and battery . My tanks to big so got to try and find some thing that fits . And a battery holder . I started it up and gave it a little rev , it sure has got some power ,, feels it to me :lol: .

    I need to get a harness next then thats about it i think . so soon as i got that i will give her a go lol

    i have got a pg harness but doubt that will go on . shame

  7. wired it all up as it should be ,But the starter motor seems like it has not got enough power . But i have started it with the battery on 2 seperate switches for starter and kill switch and it works fine . Could it be the wires in the throttle are not thick enough to carry the power as the ones i wired seperate are thicker . It does say in the manual for the engine they should be 4mm min . If it is the throttle i have where could i get a throttle with the thicker wires to carry the power through . I got this throttle with my frame i bought ..

  8. Hi i have a throttle with the kill switch and the starter button .

    there are only 3 wires . both positves are earthed through the one earth wire . how do i wire these to work .

    Any one ?? my head hurts !!

  9. ive got one recently . fibre glass body . Im new to them all but i dont think it would last long if you had a bit of an accident , but it easy to repair with it being fibre glass .

    I think i would rather have a one made of alloy but i got it now so will get my raket engine in and see what its like but this engine wont go in i have got to add bits ect to make it fit .

    if you lived close you could of looked at mine see what you think for yourself .

    i do have a load of pics though if you wanted me to post em

    1 more thing , the hoop is only attached to the body with tie wraps .. me personally i dnt like that idea i like things solid . so i will be adding some kind of bolt structure in certain places to hold it so i know its not going to move ....

    Fibreglass is ment to be very strong and is used on some cars i just think some little mods could make it better

    I have the areodeck one but i dont knw if there is much diffrence573363f127ce4_MeontheFusion.jpg.cebe2b6e
