    13kgs is pretty good it would be interesting to see if this number comes done in the future

    Most of those paraglider guys like a lot more thermic activity than the person who has that propeller that might want to suck in a loose line. If you don't mind climbing out and trying to thermal from flat places this wouldn't be a good plan for you.

    hi.all good news.a type of paramotor wing that will help with thermals will be a good choice. and not any type of wing.. all wings .all brands can fly differently. according to their own manuals.

    Big Torrey Supporter here : Paragliding has been Hijacked for a Tool of Terror. Flying Schools / Sites Worldwide must Ban all displays of support for ongoing Atrocities in Israel. No Flags , Banners, Signs, Terror Group Patches-Insignia or Aerial Displays etc. Lifetime Bans, Cancelled Insurance / Memberships are appropriate Protests !

    Do you sell this towing system?

    • @greendragonsairsports
      @greendragonsairsports ปีที่แล้ว

      We eventually want to sell the system as something you can buy, but in the meantime we are happy to share the plans to help the sport of instruction develop. We can also come to you, the field must be minimum of 300m, and in the UK. We are in process of running training courses to operate PT, £800 for 4 days course can be over weekends. Get in contact with us through email here: fly@greendragons.co.uk
