Yes, but what I meant is flying solo to get proficient at it before buying a tandem wing, the reason being is that I'm ok with buying an extra wing but not 2 . Do you feel significant difference in handling/lift/etc when being overloaded?

Thank you for your reply, I think I'm missing something, you said on you 26m you're 15kg over the max, in my case I will be between 5kg and 10kg over the max, so why would that be more dangerous than I your case?

Hi all, I've been in the sport for 2 years now, I've done only foot launches. One of my goals with the sport is to be able to share it with family and friends, but tandem foot launching is kind of too complicated and even dangerous, so I decided to go to the trike approach. I own a power2fly RS with a moster 185, and was thinking about the colibri trike which can be used for tandem. Now in order to be able to do tandems I need to be comfortable launching and landing the trike by myself, and here is the question. I fly a universal 1.1 28m which has a top range weight of 140kg. I weight 90kg plus let's say 30kg of the motor with fuel, 4 kg of the wing itself and 20kg of the trike, I'm already over the max weight of the wing. Is it ok to fly an overloaded wing? Other that higher descent rate, are there any other implications, risks? Would you recommend this setup? Thank you in advance, I would like to hear your opinion as well about the whole tandem thing and setup with the mentioned trike.

So I've been thinking about this and I wanted to ask you if the motor doesn't get flooded when you transported tilted like that?

Great info, my motorcycle is smaller but I got some ideas from your setup. Thanks a lot

Hi everyone, I'm about to end my paramotor training, and just order a power2fly rs with its storage bag. I ride a motorcycle, the car is almost always with my wife. I live next to the beach, about 5 minutes in the car, were I plan to take of. My question is has anyone transport the paramotor, probably broken down into the bag on a motorcycle? How to do it? Any ideas? Thank you all in advance
