I am new to this parawotsit thingummy but have just bought my first wing (Action 29) and am looking for a user manual for it.

Thanks in advance. Hi Poacher. My first wing was also an Action which I have a user manual for. send me your e-mail (PM) and I will send it. The Action was the first of the new generation wings that performed and swept the market early to mid 2000's a bit like the Airwave magic Kiss did in hangliding in the 1990's. However technology in wing design have improved since the Action. The Action is a great solid wing but fast on take off and landing with a slow climb rate. Trimmer range is very narrow compared to modern wings. If you are a heavy pilot like me this may be important. If you have not received some instruction please do so or you may break your machine or much worse!!! Take care regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get someone who knows to have a good look over your motor. If it hasn't flown for a while I doubt that it will run for long!!! Regards.

paramotormike Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Also I think Parajet can convert it to a full Parajet machine. They used to do this. Could be a cheaper way of getting a good modern low hang point machine. Check with Parajet! http://www.parajet.com/index.php?id=11 Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poacher Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 Cool... thanks for the info. I will have a snoop at parajet in a jiffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poacher Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 Cool, thanks for the info and offer!!! Really appreciate it:-) My email address is: darren_1001@hotmail.com I have bought the wing purely as a thing to learn on, I took a couple of days training at the end of the summer but couldnt practice what I had learned (no wing). I will learn on this and then once I have let it drag me around the field a few times get myself a synthesis Paul at Manchester Paramotors is a top dude instructor and I will be using his services again for my 'proper training'. My Whisper was regularly flown up until I bought it (September), I guess it will be ok as it is in very good condition although the 'vest' is a little tight for me right now. Thanks for the reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poacher Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 I have managed to find a manual for a Reaction, does anybody know if this is appropriate for the Action (not the GT)? I guess all the blurb about how to look after it is all the same but would just like to check if the trim settings, speed bar etc are the same? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
