  1. Well here my take on the nitro 200 , owed my nitro 200 for about 4 years, and yes I DID have a problem with it, cylinder lining failed and was unable to get full power, 500 rpm down . Reported the problem to vince at custom air, and with in a few days received  all parts required to complete the repair, was invited to send the nitro down to air conceptions but so simple to do,had the parts sent out,think about 45 hours on the clock at the time , but this is the important thing all-out of warranty 2 year six month after purchasing the motor, Air conception have a 2year warranty and they stand by it....no nonsense about did I use the wrong oil or not the right amount ,up to about 85 hours now and running very nicely, having not spent a penny on it in all the time of ownership  that's saying something about nitro 200,ps have just received a new belt and starter batteries but not under warranty I might add, Show me a motor that never breaks down, and I will show you my arse in sainsburys

  4. Hi Tony  first saw a rotron down at the parajet factory  2010- 2011 sounded fantastic , running so smoothly, and lots of power and I mean lots of power, then not many years later they stop development and production  of paramotor engines altogether, parajet just make the frames now ,yeah  we all missed out on parajets innovative work on paramotor engines,and that's a shame..

  5. Both very well made and designed machines, with lots of power. finally went for the nitro 200 with electric start and clutch, and must say I have been very pleased with it, there are two main reasons why . one electric start, two  the weight , its light, I'm going to say it. Its a game changer. Ps don't underestimate electric start!!!!

  6. Just read about powerlords first flight in months,  very well done powerlord.   Thinking of having a flight very soon myself,  just getting my head back into gear, has anyone fitted cruise control on to a air conception nitro 200 with electric start.  thanks for any help. Geoffw

  7. Well that's a simple question to answer ,if a manufacturer inadvertently or by design find they have made a wing better in very different ways sometimes they put that into there next wing, and Iam almost certain they are constantly looking at what other manufacturers are up to . Copying most certainly. they have come on a long way ,but there are limits , safety is most important, or should be.  just met thoughts 

  8. I have a nitro 200 and I love it,one of the most important thing to me was the fact it's so light.starting is easy lots of power , as for vibration never really thought about it, or noticed it that much.but then I haven't flown all the different paramotor out there.one thing I do know it's a great paramotor, and like I said earlier it's so light, just brilliant ..beat that. Just my view..
