Sorry guys been on holidays.

POZ -I got the PWK carby, I find the fuel economy to be great! I'm 81kg, I had the Membrane carby on my Thor 110 and thought it was a pain in the arse! so I'm glad I went to the float carby

I have a medium size ITV wing, i thought it was a 24m but it actually a 26m so that's a little better I guess.

I'm still running it in for another 2 more hours then will start to organise the BASE jump, its going to be a pick up from the top of a 400ft hill in case of us unable to climb and only a level flight. (which I don't think that will happen) Thor 200 has enough power

Here's a little clip of the Zenith 200: Paramotoring starts at 2:30 minutes in, just a bit of skydiving at the start

Cheers!

Ok,

New Zenith 200 has landed

Whoo Hoo!

Running in for 5 hours, then base time

I will post Video

Not a good start to the day!!

Yes the temp is in Celsius

Cheers Dan!

To everyone else, I appreciate the concern.

Come on guys, talking like Paramotoring has no risk at all??

We'll be taking all the precautions, not as if we haven't jumped before.. we both have 4000+ jumps, Launching from a decline then off a cliff high enough to get off even if we don't climb

I think when we wing suit from a cliff is more dangerous than doing a pick up. Everyone is on the edge of their seat when they watch it, I don't know anyone that doesn't like watching it and totally excepted all around the world now

This is how new crazy sports are born!

We have enough experience to do it, so we are still going to do it

8 weeks to go!

Ok..

There will be no evidence posted now.

Cheers!

Cool!!

Thats ok, i'll already be in the air..

I'll some footage of the success later

8 weeks to go!

Anyway getting back to the original question...

24m Lapoon big enough to lift, as a one way Tandem??

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Cheers!

Thats all sorted.

I've been falling out of aircrafts for 14 years in November

Ohh, well we won't do it then.

This is a Base...

Not sure if this is the right way to add a youtube link

Ok, I have the new Zenith Polini 200 on order 9 weeks to go

A friend and I are going to do a few pick up jumps, both of us are 80kg each and flying a ITV 24 Lapoon. I know the Zenith 200 will have the power.

Any thoughts on using a 24m wing for a pick up to 1000f??

Cheers!

Excellent, More options!!!

Two more days until order!!

Maybe just different attachment points?

Hi,

I am ordering a Zenith Thor 200 in the next couple days..

Does anyone know if it is possible to do a tandem with the zenith frame?

I'd still be ordering one if I couldn't but it would be a good option down the track

Cheers

Pete!

Thanks Colin,

Sounds like fairly minor things to fix after 400hrs

What size prop are you using and what thrust are you getting from it?

Cheers!

Thanks for the replies,

I have had a look at my frame and I think i'll buy a new one that is meant for a Thor 200, its something that should be 100% right or I/we shouldn't fly

Decision made!

Thanks..

Hi,

In the Polini Thor manual it states the Temp should not exceed 280 and flight temp should be 230 and 250

Do they mean Celsius of Fahrenheit

My Thor 100 is running at 140 Celsius during flight, is this a normal flight temp?

Cheers!

Ok thanks guys,

I cant find much info on their review, I did find that people say they are hard to start.. problems with flooding??

So the new Corsair 175 M25Y is still the old engine?

I'm having a look at a brand new RS Ultra in a couple weeks that I might be able to get reasonably cheap around $5400US.

It is the clutch engine, wooden prop, Tiny Tacho.

Cheers!

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if the PXP corsair 175 are any good?

I'm looking at a new one in the Kangoog ultra frame.

Do they have any problems?

Cheers!

Thanks SimonW,

I'll get onto them and see what they can do for me.

Thanks

Hello everyone,

This will be my first post..

I fly in South Australia

I am flying a Airfer frame and a Polini thor 110, I'm wanting to replace it with the Polini 200.

Is there any conversion/Adaptor engine mounts available to do this??

Is there such a thing?

Cheers!
