stuartasutherland Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 If you follow Parajet on Facebook, they have just posted some pics of the new Zenith. A complete re-design. Looks very light, with simple to change parts. Not as strong as the Volution I assume, but very nice. Wonder when it goes on sale, and if I can convince the wife I need one!

Steve Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I saw it in the flesh last week and was blown away, it is superb. Some really innovative features. Should be available within a few weeks apparently. I thought it was still top secret but as it's now on Facebook I guess it's all public now.

From the look of the pics, I can't see how it will stand up on it's own. Is there a fold out stand or something? Would help with fuel filling, pre / post flight checking etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I was reliably informed today that it will have a stand / stand up. Looking at the motor close up is nothing short of amazing! It's like looking at a well made clock. Well done to Andrew for some awesome CNC work. Literally EVERYTHING has come out of a CNC machine. I have a picture on my phone of the frame and cage with no engine in (but not sure if I can post it yet) SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartasutherland Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 It does look awesome - hope the price isn't too crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 It has a separate stand. Probably a good idea to hold off on the pic for now Si. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Because its bad etiquette when asked not too. Its a picture of the motor and frame without the engine. Not the same as the facebook shots. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardc Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Thanks Alan, although I am still not sure what all the fuss is about, it looks like half of it is missing and I am not sure what the unique selling point will be! Eddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
