Nice vid, thank you... Would you say that it had enough thrust for me weighing 80 kg/ 177 lbs naked on a mid B mountain wing? Alternatively, is there an option to fit a Moster 185 on it?
Hey Chris, yes it makes more than enough thrust for your weight of 177 lbs on a mid B wing that you are in in the weight range on. I weigh the same, and it flys me quite well. Yes, there is an option to put a Moster 185 on it, and also it is now possible to convert it to the standard or XL size cage for up to 140CM propeller
Proton vs MiniMot? MiniMot still wins weight, size, electric start, swing arm and paraglider pilot fly feeling category - would like to know more for smaller pilots.
For a smaller pilot it really depends on your weight. I would suggest the proton as you have a bullet proof engine with easily serviceable parts and readily available. They are both good but for me the Proton is +1 for sure.
@@Kyle.Mooney That’s interesting, thanks so much Kyle. What info can you say about the power performance side of things in comparison with the prop size? The Atom 80 cc the MiniMot 170cc with the smaller prop sizes. On MiniMot 165lbs (75kg) all up weight The following are averages because weather conditions play a roll in varying performance. I can get off in 3 - 4 steps at 1000ft in 4min @ 4900-5200 RPM not full throttle. Flights to 2000-3000ft the following is for the most part not cruise but gaining height. I like to hold it at an Average temperature 343°f (173°c) Min 320°F (160°c) @ 4900RPM Max 356°c (180°c) @ 5200 - 5400 (not full throttle.) Getting a bit technical I know but it would be very helpful to get any comparisons. 🤗
Now you’re talking. I want that.
Super sunglasses😊
