    Damaged or dead adventure F or R 3

    in Paramotor kit Wanted

    Posted

    Hi guys sorry about the delay getting back to you. What I have is a complete Adventure A3 Paramotor and with possibly a carb service I expect it to start and run sweet. I have a complete spare cage and spare prop I also have a new harness for it I would expect the one on it to be a bit mouldy but poss recoverable. I wouldn't be interested in splitting it but would sell as a going concern with spares for the right money. Let me know if there's an interest obviously you get first shout Ben..

     

    cheers Col. 

    Solo 210 battery for Electric Start

    in Paramotors.

    Hi depends on the size of the hole it has to fit into. Adventure for example had a battery pack shaped to fit the recess in the fibreglass body. Generally 12-14volts highest ah that will fit and if it is recharged in flight then No lipo's or other type that requires special chargers. I've seen everything from a power tool power pack strapped on with cable ties to tiny lipo's,s in a very neat steel electrics compartment but with no in flight charging.

    Walbro-32 carb wanted

    Add detail

    Might be worth actually giving them a call if you have a contact number. The other manufacturers that used a solo210 I can think of is adventure, early nirvana, fresh breeze (different carb), pap and I think H&E. So might be worth dropping them an e mail. There was also an American dealer that done a load of spares and upgrades for that motor but can't remember the name think it starts with an M but I'm guessing. Well worth a look around somewhere there is a PDFs manual and exploded drawings also wiring diagram. Used to have them but must have deleted when I changed motor..

    Hope that's some help..

    Mojo's gear I think it is

    New old fart

    Hi John, Welcome to the PMC.

    I have to ask where you came up with the 3.5k figure for training.

    The PMC course at membury is way less than that. That's for a full course to a safe standard no limit on days ( We do ask that you complete inside 10 months ) and use of all necessary equipment motors, wings and harnesses.

    Give Simon Westmore a shout on here and he will be able to give you details and answer any queries you may have. 

     

    Hope that's of some help

    Cheers Col..

    High vs low

    in Paramotors.

    Hi

    Same here came from a high hang point to low wouldnt go back. Try some ground handling in a high hang harness or fair approximation of, and have a play. :launchdance: might help you decide.

    cheers Col..

    Where Can I Get This Starter Motor?

    in Paramotors.

    Posted

    Hi

    if there was a build up of gunk and grime on the bendix shaft stopping the bendix gear getting thrown far enough to catch the starter ring that could be (been ) your problem. Low battery could do the same but assuming you had a good battery.

    hope it helps

    Col...
