goode400 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I'd be grateful if anyone could recommend which reserve to buy. I'm 66kg. Probably 76 suited and booted. Thanks in advance. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 All up weight with motor and everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goode400 Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 Ah...you've got me there as I haven't got a paramotor yet! Just about to buy all the kit for the first time. I guess with the paramotor I'll be looking at another 30kg ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyJ6 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 As I understand it, add 50kg to naked weight, so your 116kg and you want to be no more than 75% of max load of reserve. So you'd be nice and safe on a 160kg reserve. Apparently, size matters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goode400 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Thanks Andy. Is there a particular make to go for? Or are they much the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyJ6 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I wouldn't like to suggest a particular make, I'm sure they'll be a few old hands with experience that could help you with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
