  1. Price Down to 2150 GBP Wing just serviced (60 flight hours, 22 months)
  2. Here you can find my review on Roadster3 26: Just 2 post later there is also a videolog (in italian, but the gps data are clear ) I'm selling it (look in sales area) with 40 hours...if you choose the 26m drop me a line I've tried also the 24m, a little more technical on landing and 3-4kmh faster than 26m with my weight
  3. Hello I want to sell my 26 Roadster3 to buy the same wing but in 24m size... Wing bought in december 2018, just 1 year of flight and 40hours on it Just Perfect...nothing to say... 2150 GBP
  4. don't know if matter on your case, but on a facebook ppg group someone said that on thor 130 you can use the thor200 flash starter spring that is much more durable
  5. open it, misure bore and stroke and you got the cc
  6. And remember that Paragliding is much more dangerous than PPG!
  7. not full in, but on the first notch yes, they says to take off on the red one, but I prefer a slow takeoff so I use the trimmers it in that way Also in nil wind I have no problem to launch with trimmers on 1st notch...
  8. My videolog in italian, gps speeds in overlay in the middle of video
  9. Hello! Roadster3 has finally arrived, I flew it just 2 hours, but enough to understand the main differences between her and my old wing. (Size 26, my weight is about 120-122kg in flight) Takeoff: Easy, REALLY Easy...First day I took off with NO WIND at all, and the inflation has been nice ad easy, but compared to my old wing (windtech honey pw size m) I had to run a bit more, because the takeoff speed with hands up it's a bit higher just pulling a bit the brakes, the takeoff becomes much shorter Handling: Definitely reactive, No need to pull hard the brakes to make good wingovers, see video below: Easy to turn and fun if you want! Speed: I flew with 2 friends, both with Speedster 2 size 24, both lighter than me, 106-108kg in flight. We had same speed. Compared to my old wing, is about 5-7kmh faster Flight in turbulence: For me it's a bit difficult to explain this feeling in english, but I'll try. With the old wing, when the air was bumpy, I felt something like driving the car on the street bumps with a good speed, a firm shot, that often scared me. Now it's totally different, now the feeling is like cruising on a boat with slightly rough sea. It moves, but softly...Hope you can understand Landing: the approaching speed is bit higher than my old wing, but the wing efficiency is higher, so also landing in no wind is easy becase the flare is very long and helps a lot to lose speed (see attached video, it was the first ever landing with the R3, in totally nil wind) that's all for now! Hope helps! att.mp4
  10. Mine has been shipped yesterday from Ozone factory... Can't wait to try it! Hope this weekend Poncho which size are you flying?
  11. I use it from 1 year, bought used with about 200 hours of flight (now it has 250 hours more or less) The engine is really powerful, the thrust is comparable to the vittorazi 185 (I use a 130cm prop) Reliability is the best plus of this engine, the water cooling system is an holy hand, and when I check the piston removing the spark plug, it is always completely clean with no carbon debris in the top. Notes: there is not a water pump, so warming up correctly the engine is really important (the water moves by convection)... I suggest 2 mins idle, then 2-3 minutes shutted down, then again 2 minutes idle, 30 secs low rpm and 5 secs full throttle before takeoff Fuel consumpion: not a fuel saver eheeh 4.3-4,5 litres/hour is what you will get flying normally Noise: normal Cons: If you fly the engine at idle for 30 seconds, when you open throttle again, the engine is a bit slow to revs up hope it helps, sorry for my written english, not perfect for sure
  12. I had I contacted you on facebook
  13. price too high... I can get brand new one for almost the same...in my favourite color
