  1. On the side that the fuel enters the carb, there is a tiny gauze filter that often gets blocked, and would exhibit the symptoms you described
  2. Also remember the height needs to be adjusted with the gasket on.
  3. Hi Paul, You might also want to check that the clunk in the tank is clean, it might be that it has some dirt n it that does not allow enough fuel at idle but as you increase RPM it increases the suction and works ok. I had it on another machine not too long ago. While your at it check for kinks in all the fuel and air hoses. Barry
  4. Just remember to tie the brake handles at the right length
  5. Where in Hampshire are you? There is quite a few of us near Chichester. And fly on the Hampshire border. Access to another place to fly would be a big bonus.
  6. Hi, I am a similar weight to you and I fly a speedster 30 and it is a great wing. Real easy to launch and really good glide rate. It might be available for sale if u are interested, pm me.
  7. Hi, Glad you got it sorted, I suspect that as it was the first time I had fully dimantled it to sqeeze it into the the car with my new kit I must have either kinked it getting it to you or on reassembly. Either way I am glad you are happy with it. Keey up posted with pics / videos of your flights.
  8. A local pilot in Sussex was fined £1500 plus court cost for low flying a local beach. So yes it does happen.
  9. correct link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Parajet-Baile ... 3cddc9b67a
  10. See this link for the reduction ratio viewtopic.php?t=5726
  11. Ebay decided to remove my listing because I would prefer cash on collection, so the new ebay number is 261419021946
  12. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Parajet-Baile ... 3cddc9b67a Only 40 hours Parajet V5 Zenith, 4 stroke paramotor, no need to mix two stroke oil. Start and runs perfectly and is a dream to fly. It is the custom green colour, it comes with a standard Helix prop which has had a few stone chips and has been repaired, it looks a bit tatty but functions perfectly. It includes the optional reserve pocket, I have sewn the zip shut to make sure it never accidently comes loose but is easily removed if required. The reserve is not included but can be negotiated if required. I have a brand new eprop available if you would prefer but this would be at an extra cost. This machine has been well looked after and has just had full service. It has done 40 hours and is 10 months old. It is used and has some minor marks, that you would expect with any paramotor. To buy this machine new today with the same options would cost in the region of £6400. I would prefer cash on collection or cleared bank transfer as the PayPal charges are high. It is advertised elsewhere and I reserve the right to remove it early. Any questions please call me, Barry on 07748986084
  13. Hi Miro, I have two or three different ones here that you can try / look feel if you can wait till next the we are flying. Barry
  14. Hi, I used silicone and it worked fine however I personally found that it detracted from the look quite a lot and wished I had not bothered. The next time I did it, I bought thin wire rope from B & Q and then got a chock block / electrical block ( dont know correct name) I undid the two screws and fed both ends of the wire right the way through and then tightened both screws on each end. I personally preffered this appreoach as it meant I could undo it easily and reapply without making a mess.
  15. Hi, I have a zenith, I had this once it was because the hang point from the harness to the swing arm had a twist in it. Very easily done if you have ever taken the arm off. Worth a check [sMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]
  16. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=8532 Speedster / Nucleon comparison, I have not flown the GTX
  17. I am going to be in St Asaph from Monday to thursday this week for work, and I am thinking about taking my flying gear with me to do some flying in the evening. Can anyone tell me of any site I could use or meet up with anyone for a fly? Thanks Barry
  18. If I were changing the gasket, I would add a little instant gasket or similar to make SURE it sealed. I don't have the polini can any one else confirm if there is a reason not to so this?
  19. Hi, I don't know what issues you are having. But I will share my experience if it helps. I read the NYC manual and it said to set the Trims to slow on launch, the problem I had was when I did that the wing would hang back and not come up cleanly on launch. The solution was simple ignore the manual and set the trims a bit faster. I.e. some where between -2 and 0. Rather than -5 It then worked
