Advice for New Pilots: How to pick the right wing.
มุมมอง 17K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Selecting the right size wing is an important part of your equipment purchase. He's how we would size a wing selection for a pilot who trains with us. We strongly recommend that new pilots work with instructors or competent mentors when making these decisions. It will save your money and headache in the long run.

    That was a great video. My sixth or so flight it took me a while to get to the field and get set up. It was around 1030am when I took off and wanted to fly around some small clouds. The air really started getting bumpy and when I landed, I crashed. Now I stick to the first two hours or last two hours of the day!

    Heads up, guys! New AC 90-66C was published June 2023. It cancels AC 90-66B, referenced in this video. www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/AC_90-66C.pdf

    I just bought a new quad paramotor and took training. Ive taken 5 flights and two of them were bumpy and made me nervous. It was just after sunrise and right before sundown. I can't even imagine paramotoring mid day. Scary.

    Love these videos. It really helps to see all of this before coming out for my training with you folks. "We're making magic here people!" 😆😎

    I'm thinking it's worthwhile also mentioning the type of wing one flies with. With PPG reflex wings works very well, but trying to thermal with it really is a bad idea. Even dual purpose wings may bite you in an instant. A video explaining the dynamics of flexwing VS (let's say) EN-A rated free flight wing may be very valuable to many pilots.

    I have 8 solo skydiving jumps. I stood up my very first landing which made me feel like a badass haha. Unfortunately it went down hill from there. I stood up 3 out of the 8 landings I think. Is it easier to land a paramotor wing vs a skydiving canopy?

    When I did my first solo, my instructor had to tell me to put my hands up, as I rounded out a few feet early, but pulled the brakes down a couple of times, then landed OK. This was with an Ok ozone mojo pwr 2, and a Bulldog frame with Atom 80

    Thank you for this. I was fairly certain that crossing a runway midfield at 300-500' was much safer, than attempting to cross the runway path where planes may be coming or going at higher altitude and speeds, as they are at the ends.

  • @TruthHurts2u

    I live in the desert. About a year ago I tried to to fly on a cool overcast day with nil winds at about 3:30 - 4PM which I thought would be perfect. It's cool, it's overcast. I figured thermal activity should be light. As soon as my feet left the ground I took the express elevator up to about 150 feet straight up. It then dumped me out and I think I fell more than 50 feet. Being new at the time I semi panicked and tried to go around to land. I hit the same lift once more which shot me up again only to dump me out and let me fall again. That didn't do anything to ease my discomfort and at this point I gave up trying to go around, I just wanted on the ground again and I knew I wasn't going to get there fast enough because I kept getting lift and then getting dumped so I just turned in the general direction of the field, killed the motor and ended up getting dumped into a patch of huge tumbleweeds. Took me awhile to untangle my wing and work up the courage to fly again but as an inexperienced pilot I was lucky to walk away from that unscathed. I learned thermals don't need HOT air to kick off, they just need air that's "warmer" than the surrounding air no matter what the air temperature is.
