Hi Richard,

The thermals might start a bit earlier in the desert. I’ll have to wait and see.

Thanks for the help

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.
