I would agree with the thor 250 & tornado, but nitro 200 is very marginal. What about the moster 185 that is at least 25% more power than the nitro?

shipping paramotor to Thailand for long holidays
simonhunny replied to ppg's topic in General paramotor discussion
I imported a brand new AC to Thailand a few years back, no import duty. I believe they are exempt, but the customs officers etc seem to make up the rules as they go along sometimes from what I have heard, you will 'probably' be fine as its used equipment -
SkyMax Star Paramotor. Review from Winged Monkeys Paramotor Team

yeah, I often lay mine on its back when transporting, I leave the prop on & made a little cradle to support it. No issues with fuel smell or leakage -
SkyMax Star Paramotor. Review from Winged Monkeys Paramotor Team
simonhunny replied to Ivan's topic in Paramotors.
I have a skymax star, the tank is excellent & seems very tough. Re the torque compensation system, correct that most paramotors use it, but the skymax solution is unique in that you can adjust the lateral offset by sliding the rear bar from side to side (as per foto in post above). I have not seen any other frame with that feature, most are a fixed offset. skymax system allows fine tuning for each person/wing -
I have replaced a few lines lately on 2 different wings, only ever replaced the damaged lines & no issues at all, just check the new line is within a few mm of the opposite number as occasionally the manufacturers stuff up the line lengths
-
well done! Thanks for sharing, look forward to seeing the outcome & availability.

Tornado 280 paramotor engine from Air Conception
simonhunny replied to custom-vince's topic in Paramotors.
I think its the 12th of never....Been coming for years this one ? -
seriously guys, does it matter? The difference is so insignificant surely, at the speeds we travel at. The weather must be bad & everyone is bored & wants to split hairs?? Lets just enjoy whatever we have & burn as much petrol as we can
