Hi Richard, The thermals might start a bit earlier in the desert. I’ll have to wait and see. Thanks for the help Andrew

Hi Richard, Thanks for the reply. The information was very useful. I have been doing a bit of reading and I think the Aeron will do OK. The problem I have with selecting a wing is that all the local pilots here are ppg only and can’t really tell me how a wing will feel under power compared to free flying. Also they mostly fly Reflex wings. I like the idea of a bit early or late evening thermal flying and just using the motor to launch. Weather this is possible I don’t know yet. Regards Andrew

Hi I’ve just recently started to do a conversion from paragliding to paramotoring. My normal wing is an Omega 7 30 and previous to that Omega 6 29 and Nova Aeron M. Does anyone have any experience flying any of these wings with a paramotor? My all-up weight will be around 120 to125Kg the max weight range of the wings are 130Kg, 125Kg and 110Kg respectfully. From what I can see most paramotor pilots opt for a 1 or1-2 wing but has any one any experience flying higher rated wings under power? The reason I ask is because I still have the O6 and Aeron and if they’re suitable I would consider using them. Regards Andrew P.S. I haven’t given up paragliding, there just aren’t any suitable hills where I’m currently based.
