Day 3 training at skyschool I started to kite my new apco thrust HP wing this wing comes up nice and quick a Little brake and it just flies waiting for me , Start to move forward a little on both brakes and feel the lift. Top to bottom from a nice ridge So reverse lunch on the A lines the apco just come straight up a bite on the brakes to stop it over flying me off the brakes run a touch of both brakes and away .Note trimmers on, A left turn a right turn back straight in to wind a little on both brakes slow it down a bit and flare, beautiful. days 4and 5 much of the same.ALEX LEDGER OF SKYSCHOOL with harry hays what a team they make . Day 6 motor on a parajet macro ,got some power and so smooth fantastic bit of kit ,Had a 50 minute fight all caught on film .The training I had was top class so good I am off to Spain to finish my training so I can fly solo with out an Instructor, Taking my apco thrust HP with me.I was told to train on the wing, you intend to fly on and you get used to how it flies. So as you can tell i am so pleased with the apco thrust HP.

Good morning shame about the weather, Start my training next week, with sky school, And I am thinking about altimeters which is the best altimeter for paramotoring,nice and simple to read and the best place to buy,Also I have got a Magellan GPS Pioneer will this be ok for paramotoring. Many Thanks Geoffw.

Hi Mark t ,Good to hear your parajet is so reliable and strong for the occasional landing that is not quite spot on. All so You have the same gear I have on order with parajet are you pleased with your apco thrust hp wing , one other thing does your reserve get in the way on take off, being lap mounted. Many thanks Geoff w

HELLO to you all. I have not been on the forum for a week or to, been out and about looking at paramotors let me save you all the leg work and get your self down to wiltshire, To the parajet factory, I have got my parajet package on order,The build quality is just fantastic and the parajet team at the open day did not just let you try on a parajet motor , But show you how they are built every nut and bolt where else can you see your paramotor being constructed before your very eyes .They will service and repair your parajet at there factory in wiltshire,So hope to be flying this summer as parajet have include training NOW thats what you call a good deal.

hi to you all, Training how much training on average do new pilots need to fly safely and what is the best way to learn , pay as you go or a complete course and how much should it all cost As Any one purchased a package deal, motor wing reserve and training as I am trying to keep the price down and get a good deal. I passed my EP course some time back. I live in stourbridge west midlands,can any one recommend a school or package that they have tried
-
hi pete Would like to lean to paramotor ,Is your training field in gloucestershire and when can I start
-
thanks guys just about to spend £7000 on paramotor package and getting a little bit nervy in fact nearly shi*ing my self, and just want to make the write decision
-
hello to you all, what a great weekend all bean flying, but where do you land and were do you take off from ,you must all have friendly farmers or nice big gardens ,Do you just go and ask with a bottle of whiskey some tip wouldn't go amiss. many thanks geoffw
-
Nice one nirmal I know what your saying about to much power and that you must use the power with great care,Truth is the pap 1250r ros looks fantasic and the spec looks like it would tick all the boxes but £4400 is a lot of cash , many thanks Geoffw
-
Very nice looking machine but how relyable are they, and what is the price, also why are you selling a new motor but i am interested
-
hello nirmal yes a proper answer so there is a animal out there I have looked at the pap range and i did think the workmanship is top notch, but they or pricey how many hours has you pap done, and you did say that you would go for a big motor ,what would you go for as we are the same weight I would like to buy the right motor first.Also do refex wings produce less drag.so you land faster.And were do you fly,I live in stourbridge west midlands and would like to join a club or meet up with pilots
-
hi guys help !danthe man I see your motor is the H&E120 how did you make your choice and surely a quiet smooth relyable motor is the place to start. my bugjet is £4000 or there abouts
-
hello to you all , One simple question what is the best paramotor to start flying and keep flying
-
hi you read your post about your new set up sounds fantastic thinking of a apco thrust hp and parajet myself what do you think about the parajet
-
i own a bailey 175 and love it
owned and flown for last 18 months
build quality is excellent
reliability is second to none
if you buy one, you will not be disappointed
don't worry about the weight, everyone moans about the weight cos its a 4 stroke
so long as you can get off 1st or 2nd go you will be ok,
the weight is not an issue once the wing lifts you
-
good day to you all. what do you think about your parajet paramotor be very interest to hear your thoughts about power and most of all reliability. also custum air paramotors they look very nicely put together
