neo350 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 How is this Idea for crazy..? A paramotor with a small 10hp engine and 10hp electric motor supporting it with a small lipo battery with 5 min buffering, assisting the engine when needed ie: take off and quick climbing. The engine should provide enough power for a steady flight without assist (is 10 hp enough?) the electric motor also should do the job of a charger and starter if could.After all We know how much they love their Prius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
