alan Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Can anyone clear up a contradiction on the fusion 29 all up weight for paragliding as the downloaded manual that did not come with the wing states 105kg but prior to this i had seen paperwork stating 115kg. Also a friend of mine is thinking of buying one and he has had a brochure sent from UKPPG with the 115kg weight on it. I hope the 115kg is correct or i will not be eating for a month or two cheers Alan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Hi Alan, I have bad news for you.... but its 105 PG max (stated) and not 115. The reason that I say (stated) is because I know that others are flying them wih a higher loading than that even. But, 100% 105kg. pg weight Paramania Fusion 29.

alan Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Cheers Simon, looks like i will have to lose 10kg before April next year as i have booked a siv coarse, strange though that my mate has had a leaflet sent saying 115kg. But less fat has to be good you do take the wings weight into the equation when calculating the all up weight I presume? because if you do it puts me at 98kg me, 9kg the wing, 6kg harness, 4kg reserve, total 117kg.

t_andrews Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 105 is free flight all up weight. Since a wing doesn't care what's hanging under it, we can extend that to motors, but the all up for paramotor is listed as 160. http://www.para2000.info/wings/paramania/fusion.html your mileage will really vary...

custom-vince Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 As far as I understand it All up weight usually is including the wing itself. Try before you buy, I have sold a few 29's and everyone has been pleased with the efficiency/economy under power (most were 85-95kg pilots), I would assume this will translate nicely into free flight also. They could also be flying the 26 under power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Thats interesting... I have only sold 23's and 26's. Just an odd thing, that I decided to type of no real matter or meaning. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
