I'm 100kg and just sold my Synth 34, it was awesome, easy to launch, and as fast as any of my mates.
Only sold as I wanted some sideways action. Bought a Fusion.

Reaffirmed my faith in buying a Microavionics headset today. I sent it back for repair as some of the heatshrink had split. It is over a year old and they said it would be about £30 to repair. Got them back today with a note saying no charge as they are too new to have split. Great service. And a great product!

Hopefully Parajet will take a look and offer comment.

Stuart, what sort of consumption are you getting with the Walbro? I heard it's a lot higher than the PWK
I'm getting about 4L an hour

Forgot to say I have the Thor 200 (heavy motor)
I just ignored the hang test as it looked so off.

If it helps, I have 3 clear holes at the rear and 3 clear hoes at the front too. I'm 100kg.
On a hang test with those settings my motor leans way back, but Parajet were right.
Hope this helps

On my zenith I did a hang test and had to use the holes right at the back. That made no sense as I'm 100 kg. Parajet told me to use the holes recommended in the manual. I did, and it flys perfect.
I'm just saying it is worth getting somewhere between.

Only 26 for me!

Actually, I have a mate who is selling an Ozone Roadster - medium I think. PM me if you want his details. Low hours I believe.

re-starting the motor in flight is not a problem.
Go live the dream!

I sat in a field on Friday night waiting for the wind to die down. It didn't, so 3 hours later I packed up and went home.

My serial number rubbed off too but I called their help line. I bought mine at the tail end of last year. They are emailing me a claim form for 1L of oil and the 10L of fuel still in my motor.
Excellent service if you ask me.
They said I should put the petrol in a car or something. He said it was really only an issue if you have a feeder tank for oil where the water will separate and you could have petrol / water mix instead of petrol / oil mix.
I think I'll keep the petrol and oil mix in my paramotor!

Mine gets hot (300 degrees) so can't wait for the gasket mod!
Mighty bypass the reed mod as I've heard it affects the power curve for the worse.

I never pay for sites but I do drop off some wine to a couple of my local farmers at Christmas time.

I'm famous! Nice work Simon.

I usually just knock on the door and ask if I can fly my paraglider from his field. That way it doesn't sound scary. I always have a short video of me or someone else taking off and flying on my phone to show him.
I then mention I use a small motor to push me in the air. Then I mention I'll happily sort him out with some aerial photos.
I've been lucky, I have many sites now without any hassles.

Twice I have tried android stuff. A phone a while back and a Nexus 7. Both were great to start but then started to slow down like an old laptop running windows would.
The Nexus 7 was the last straw. Got an ipad mini instead - shed loads faster.
Personal preference I guess. Although I fancy a new macbook Pro, but there are getting silly expensive.

Hi, well, it is roughly set up but due to Spring refusing to arrive, I've not flown yet. Happy to report back. Looking forward to trying it.

I would use it. I currently use Garmin Connect to log all flights and bike rides. I'm sad like that. Handy for clocking hours etc

Awesome. What a nutter.

I spent a while comparing prices online using comparison websites like parcel2go.
I send my Volution, and 2 props for £46 for a 48hr delivery. Oddly, I split it up with the props going via a different courier as the one that was best value for the cage and box wanted too much for the props.
Shop about, it's worth it!
Pallet pick up is pretty expensive.

It's true, we do have a right to roam. But for PPG I feel it is still polite to ask permission. Where are you headed?
