Gin Pegasus 2

Hi! i got a pretty good offer on the Gin Pegasus 3 wing (1500$), it has 30 hours on it and is in a top condition. But since i'm completely green i wonder if this is a good wing for a beginner?

It's classed as a beginner wing but you should be talking about this with your instructor - You'll learn to fly on a school wing and you and your instructor can make decisions about which wing to buy after you've actually learned to fly.

If you haven't had any instruction yet then you should probably avoid spending any money at this point.

I haven't had my training yet, but the owner of the school and store recommended me this with my experience, height and weight, and for the paramotor course we must have our own motor, wing etc, this is the case at all the places in my country except one, but that school doesn't have a good reputation. So i will have to spend my money before getting my license.

Your situation is of course not optimal. However, if your instructor has recommended it to and you can't do it any other way, then in terms of the wing... It will be great for your training and early flights.

That is one of the best wings for beginner. I started my flying with pegasus/bolero 6 and it lifts off quick, have no problems when flying in turbulence and landings are a breeze!
