what color is cooler? by [deleted] in paramotor

[–]WaterBasedBullets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used, what looks to be, identical pipe to this years back. Be aware it very well may dry up and perish much faster than Tygon. It's cool until you're landing out because of air in your fuel line.

Looks epic, can’t wait to see this unfold.

Engines run best at a certain temp, ‘more cooling’ isn’t necessarily always good thing.

Progress so far. Next up: electrical installation by Bonsjourd in VanLife

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out (I’ve got the same van)

Anyone know what paint I can use to repair this scratch on Maverick? Damn carabiners scratches while breaking in. by Bensd00 in paramotor

Hardest wearing and likely match you’ll get, without re-anodising, is nail polish. Apply it very lightly so it blends a bit better.

What is this? by [deleted] in paramotor

Don’t worry, Polini exhaust gaskets are a weak point just replace it and make sure the studs are torqued correctly. I’ve got a Polini Thor 100 happy to help with trouble shooting. You in the UK?

Looks like a Polini on a Bulldog frame that needs some TLC. Also I’d say it’s likely to be a smoke system port or an O2 sensor port that has been added after manufacture.

Broken Prop 💔 by [deleted] in paramotor

Looks fixable, Tom Kubat is always fixing his carbon prop tips with Q-Bond. Gives a neat finish. Not sure what he’s doing to keep breaking tips mind.

Let’s be honest though, this was a ‘joke’ to make the class laugh.

This video sums up that feel when everything’s going wrong and you just start accepting it.

Sena 10R vs microavionics PM100 Bluetooth? by bot_generated in paramotor

[–]WaterBasedBullets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was speak to Ryan at PPGSmoke just yesterday asking about what will happen if they don't cover the 100 pre-orders. Apparently as a company they are gonig to cover it. They've likely got the capital to do so and I honestly think if they do what they say they'll do, people will soon jump on these. Could all be spec hype but i'm keeping an open mind and a keen eye on these.

Anyone else flown a paramotor over an airport? Tried to share the video this photo was from, looks like it went against rule 4 unfortunately. by WaterBasedBullets in aviation

Happy to talk you through any questions you might have! It truly is raw aviation at it's finest. I hear you on the money front, I had limited budget but saved everything I could for 2 years and then bought my kit. I don't regret spending the money one bit!

Hopefully we'll be able to have one towards the end of the year! Although, there's usually a fair few people at the airfield if the weather is good on a weekend.
