  1. Hi, I'm thinking of getting a PPG and am currently a free flight paraglider. I weight 70kg (naked weight). Thus I'm estimating I'll be 100-105kg with reserve, engine, fuel, etc. Correct me if this is wrong. If I'm flying a 26 or 27m wing what sort of power will I need for this? Or more specifically would I be more suited to a Polini 100, 200, or Moster 185? Are there problems with having too much power??? I've also got a 17m wing (Zion) which I'd like to eventually fly with the motor. Would this be more suited to a more powerful engine? Also does more power mean more speed, or is that more to do with wing weighting? Any advice is greatfully appreciated, Cheers, Alex.
