TRexarms Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Looking for a paramotor for my girlfriend who is 152cm Cage size is the important thing here. What is the smallest cage size commercially available? I've seen the tiny paramotors made from a DLE 170, but sending someone I care about up into the air with an R/C engine just doesn't fill me with confidence.. Ideally there's something out there that fits the Atom 80. Do I need to go with a custom frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulg18 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) Macfly sell three cage diameters with the foldable cage type, the smallest being 128cm. Checkout Mat Minyard YouTube Macfly review video. Edited September 10, 2020 by paulg18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRexarms Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 I've seen a few companies with 128cm cages. But she's 150cm tall, doesn't leave much room for legs bending on landing. Is this as small as they get? Does anyone make a smaller diameter cage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 The head is generally a good bit below the top of the cage, so I would think there shouldn't be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadders Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I have a paramotor with small cage which turns a 110cm prop on a top 80 It was built by Bailey for a female pilot they made two. I have since upgraded to a miniplane so this is now a spare which i might sell let me know if your interested and I will give you more details Thanks Hadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
