tommo2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hi, I'm a guy of 52 who has just started learning to paramotor and so far enjoying it immensely. Any advice on my first paramotor & wing/canopy? I will probably only ever purchase the one, so want it to last, I dont want a "sports!!" one...at the age of 52 I'd prefer something stable and reliable.....more of a cruise. I weigh 85.5 kg Many thanks for your thoughts. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richwill15 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hi Tommo You'll get tons of good advice on here. And if you're can wait a week or so. I'm finishing off a paramotor survey I ran. I'm just analysing and sorting out publishing the results. As a first timer myself I'm using it to help me make my purchasing decision too. Hope this helps Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 There are loads of people out there that think there parmotor is the best!!!! Me for one There are some question you need to ask your self..... Budget? new or second hand? 2 stroke or my fav 4 stroke? High or low hangpoint? Active or fixed chassis? What type of flying are you planning on doing? How heavy are you IE thrust needed? Thrust needed depends on wing size as well as body weight.. There is not really a sports model paramotor IMO If you answer some of these question then people will give you advice on the paramotor that might fit your needs...
