I need two volution arms to cut for fixing the paramotor to my quad, only need the back 50mm so bent ones will do.

Cheers Pete

Ist outing for the new quad tomorrow if the weather plays ball.

Dont forget to tell him you came through The Paramotor club.

Old Pap top 80 for single bimbles about. (possibly for sale)

Walkerjet f 200 (not sure why Ive still got it as I dont use it) Possibly for sale.

Bulldog with a simonini evo engine for tandem.

Simonini mini 2 in a quad

Just getting the new arms to fit the harness right.

You could ask Clive at bulldog paramotors how much a pair of hih is and fit them I would think

Can you not just put larger stops in to stop them coming in so far?

Is it the arms each side of you or at the front where they bend in thats the problem?

Seen one like this before (along time ago) are there any stops between the swing blocks and the frame?

the arms should be at 90 degrees to the frame and not come in any more, could you put some packing/adjusters in to stop them coming in more than this?

Pete

Hi all.

I have an old castaloucio ( probably spy wrong) solo 210 that is spare. I've been doing a bit of refurb on it and the swing arms come out from the frame dip down then rise up and turn in towards the pilot. Makes it uncomfortable as when under load the swing arms come and can press against you. This doesn't seem to make sense to me.

On my simmo the arms don't swing at all and just come out and turn up, similar on the bulldog my dad has.

Why is this, what is the purpose and is it possible to change this?

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Cheers Lee

Pictures would help.

Looks like I'm pulling out too - sorry guys my back is still not right.

I'll be happy for someone to take my place.

You could always ground crew?

BREAKING NEWS

Oscar Pistorius walks free of ALL charges.

How tight are your lower harness straps that go to the frame? it looks as though they are too long.

SO how did it go? and dont say fast

If it makes a hollow sound when you open the throttle quickly, that's classic lean behaviour. If it runs rough (fires every other cycle) it's too rich.

Try richening your carb settings and see if it gets any better. No one ever blew a motor from it being too rich...

I agree with the above diagnosis.

Not sure i will be flying by then! will there be any possibilities for tandems that weekend? just to get my feet off the ground!! haha! thanks

Possibly yes

The best advice I can give and for you to receive is....Get proper training.

What do you want a ground adjustable for ?

I might have one but will have to find it in the shed.

Thanks Pete

Yes 80-90 kg is with engine, cage and harness.

Thats not too bad then.

Thanks Pete

So even with the trike of around 80kg-90kg my weight is 80kg+ passenger will be 70-90kg, will be the same engine good as foot launch?

Which wing would you suggest for me?

I would get a large non reflex tandem wing and dont use small wheels on the quad.

80-90 kilo trike/quad. is that with the engine

Is there a Plan C? This is the UK ...

Waterproof your wing and learn high wind flying.

We tandem foot launch with the evo and its got a good climb rate, it would depend on your all up weight/wing type as to the climb rate.

We have a synth cabrio 46 which is a fast take off run and heavy to pull up but is super fast in the air, our main wing we use now is a Ozone magnum-1 41 its a nice take off speed and its not too slow in the air.

Try Dan Burton.......http://www.freshbreezeuk.com
