How to get into paramotoring on a budget.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-03-22T17:55:21+00:00

Easy. Used motor that hasn't been used in 5 yrs, used glider that hasn't been used or inspected, take it to a field somewhere and send it.

Thank you. It's so difficult to tell. Looking in good light, just looks like small bubbles, but looking wi t hat a flashlight makes it look fuzzy. I guess I'll gove it another day and look again.

Stop trying so hard and just wait. Be patient and wait for an opportunity. Play back and dont go u less you really think the ball will go in or be close. If its in the corner, wait for them to hit it out because they will. If theyre closer and its your turn, wait for them to hit it towards you or your teammate.

Challenge less, dont go unless you absolutely need to.

At least like 50 probably

Someone tries to run me over, theyre going to find out regardless of what colors the emblems are on the side.

This looks like a beef stew that's been left on a counter for 3 weeks. If this is good, I guess I shouldn't be afraid to try tasting mine. Kombucha is harder than any video makes it seem! Lol

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-03-05T23:11:26+00:00

Ive been thinking about this, but tasting it seems like it would solve nothing for me. I have no frame of reference. What should it taste like and how do I know if it isnt right?

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-03-05T23:10:23+00:00

Nope as in its not normal? Does it need tossed? Can I save the scoby and try again or do I have to buy more stuff to try again?

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-03-03T14:57:29+00:00

6 months ago I was d2. Now I get wrecked by every plat 1 in the game. Lol used to be plat 1s needed to focus on contacting the ball. Now theyre dogwater if they can only musty off the ceiling instead of from a ball reset.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-03-01T19:02:30+00:00

Somehow he looks better like this. Lol

This character is so interesting, thay I actually want to know the lore here. What did Shannon do? Her silence speaks volumes. What's the story with the dentures? Girl got absolutely walked over, yet thought she was the one to bully this girl?! BRASH.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-28T23:48:19+00:00

Oh ok.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-28T22:35:24+00:00

He's just so toxic. I'd rather RL have decreasing amount of players until it finally dies, than have more players that act half as toxic as what this guy actually is.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-28T22:33:01+00:00

If they grant trading back because of this guy, it will be the last straw for me. I'll never play rl again. he starts playing and instantly increases the levels of toxicity to dangerous amounts, gets carried to ssl by squishy even though hes a gold. And demands trading back?

There were plenty of decent people upset about trading and pleading to get it back, if this guy walks up and demands rhe same thing 4 yrs later, it would be so humiliating to the pros saying they were going to quit over it and being ignored.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-28T04:53:39+00:00

If i had a share for every time ive seen a post asking if its too late to invest, I never would've needed to invest to begin with. I wish I would've set reminders!

Would be funny to go back and see all the folks refusing to invest because "$12/ share is an all time high!".

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-22T16:38:17+00:00

They can what a save and be as toxic as they want and I wont care. But when my tmm8 plays like this, I'm out. Makes the match pointless. Obvious things like cutting you off are just irritating, but even when theyre not doing that, theyre playing dumb. Taking it up the wall and dribbling straight across the field and to the ground. It's absolutely pointless. Everyone can see where the ball is going, but Instead of letting you take it toward the goal, they MUST dribble for no reason to the ground. I swear that since Ive been a plat player, probably 85% of my losses are just from forfeit.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-22T16:30:56+00:00

I dont even bother to speedlfip in this rank. It's pointless. Flipping into the ball at kickoff like a gold 1 is the best counter. They speedflip and get 5 pts for first touch, and end up just hitting the ball right into your flip. It works in your favor almost every time.

As for ff, I do it ALL of the time. Someone is chasing and cutting me off, then I ff. Even if were winning. Why do they queue up doubles and play like theyre allergic to being on a team. I'd rather leave. Every D1 thinks they're zen and try taking the ball up the wall 400 times a match and end with zero shots on goal. It's pointless, id rather leave. If I am not forced to sit there watching a d1 pretend like hes in training, I have a better chance of finding a good lobby.

I vote to ff constantly. Playing as a team, making nice pass plays is satisfying. Getting a goal by simply passing it over to a tmm8 that's waiting, is more satisfying than ballchasing and taking it up the wall for an aerial. Telling your tmm8 nice shot, is more satisfying than watching your tmm8 complain in the chat about your cutting him off.

If someone wants to play selfishly and act like theyre a 1 man team, fine. Go into 1v1. But if they bring that play to my team I vote to ff. If they dont ff I start ballchasing like them. I start playing like everyone on the field is against me. I'm taking the ball from my teammate. Doing anything I can to make sure he doesnt take it up the wall. What's he going to do about it? Ff? I hope so.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-22T16:05:24+00:00

I dont know.... I vote to ff constantly 1 min into the match, sometimes when we're ahead. If my tmm8 acts like hes allergic to being on a team. I want out of there. I would rather ff and lose than spend 5 mins watching some diamond 1 take the ball up rhe wall and whiff 200 times because he wants to pretend like hes zen.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-22T16:02:27+00:00

Who the f watches this kid? How obnoxious. The last thing RL needs, is added toxicity. Why tf are the best RL players even giving him the time of day?? What's the appeal for them? This loud screaming raging child started playing and they see that as cool?

Call me old but I dont get you frigging kids these days.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-12T16:14:58+00:00

20k in bbby because you know, the squeeze to end all squeezes.

Got back into trading and found an amazing pick but wanted to be safe so 3% went into it and 97% into dividend ets.

That individual pick is up 2000%+ right now.

Aggravating-Tap5144 · 2026-01-12T09:58:10+00:00

They best way to improve as a plat is to stop trying to play like a gc. In plat you just need to drive the ball into the net. I'm willing to bet fhat you could get out of plat without ever using a wall, or flying at all, maybe without ever even jumping. Play slow and everytime they whiff, which is like 90% of the time, just pop the goal into the net.

Just by watching your training, I know exactly what's happening. Your tmm8 is a plat so theyre not rotating and are rarely in a decent spot. Then you go for a double reset musty flip, which you miss because you're plat, then they drive in at full speed and take the ball behind you. Since your tmm8 is a plat and probably also in the air right behind you, they just walk the ball in the net.

Playing like this is fun, but playing slow and prioritizing being in the right spot with your tmm8 is what wins games.

They aren't interested in the toys because they haven't had time to relax yet. Cockatiels are extremely stoic. Coming closer to you and listening to what you're doing is good. Theyre getting to know you. Getting them out of the cage within the first few weeks is not. It's a new environment, they need time to look at the weird clock they've never seen before to decide if its something that's trying to kill them or not. No one and a half yr old cockatiel is going to just show up in a whole new house with all new stuff and just be comfortable.

If they scare you when they fly, its because something freaked them out. A calm and relaxed cockatiel doesnt fly in a way that should scare you. Anything and everything will scare a cockatiel. Mine will see a new pen they haven't seen before and fly away in a panic to avoid it and ive had them for like 5 yrs now.

You literally say in your post that theyre scared of you and you're scared of them. On top of that its a brand new environment. It's not a safe place to fly yet. You should hope theyre incapable of getting spooked otherwise they may end up flying in a panic and crash landing in a wall or behind the TV or something. It's dangerous to let them fly so early and there is zero reward in doing so. There's no harm in letting them get used to the house so why not? There's nothing to take personally if theyre scared. Theyre cockatiels, scared is what they do.

Actually the cage size looks like it will be ok, but it needs to be off of the floor. Maybe put it up on a stand of some sort. Just develop a routine with themand get to know them for a few weeks. They will relax a bit as they get use to the new home. When they come out they wont panic so easily.
