poz Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Does anyone know whether I could use my Revo2 as a paraglider? I don't want to ridge soar, because we have no ridges near by, but Algodonales is only a short drive from where I live and would like to learn paraglide as I truly believe this would put me more in touch with my wing, be a lot of fun and hopefully make me a better/safer paramotor pilot. What I cannot do is afford to buy a seperate paragliding wing. So, if I use my Revo 2, am I going to be able to thermal with the rest of the crowd, or am I just going to have a pleasant glide down to the bottom?

alan_k Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Dan this is a direct quote from the Paramania web site 'Pulling the trimmers down; you notice slow trim is split into two positions ‘Slow’ and 'Super Slow’ perfect for low and slow flight or forgiving Paraglider-like landings. The combination of good sink rate and the wing’s tight turning radius, enable pilots to practice Paragliding skills (even without power) thermal flying and soaring in light conditions is now easy.' It sounds like they would be disappointed for you not to Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
