Fair play to you I know many a person wouldn't upload their blunders as it makes them look less than life like but you did and everyone that does this sport after a bit of time does get cocky and it bites them on the ass Safe flying everyone and thanks for the honest video Chucky
You know Chucky I've watched pretty much all of your paramotoring vids, and pretty much all of the time you don't wear anything on your feet. I have always had it in the back of my mind that one day you would come a cropper at some point and injure yourself because of that. This mishap is something you can learn from for future flights, so please put something on your feet. Safe flying Chucky, and keep uploading those great vids, they're so entertaining.
A great lesson of complacency, you learnt and will adapt so you are now a better pilot then before so thays great, sorry your 4th was cut a little early but glad u didnt get hurt
Impulsivity is a hallmark of youth. Hopefully, Chuck will outgrow that tendency (that we all go through) before too many more hard life lessons - in a sport that is less forgiving of mistakes than most.
Thank you for posting this. It shows how easy things can get out of hand. You never know when you are going to be walking. The lesson here: Being prepared to walk out might save your life. You had water, but no shoes I am certain that lesson was not lost on you. Again thank you for sharing, learning from others mistakes is much cheaper than making them yourself.
I've broken a prop doing something similiar, the real lesson is to not do anything too risky when you aren't near your car, or a road, or out of cell phone range. And most definately not when you are solo.
I'm so glad you are ok Chucky! Yeah, carry a spare prop kit with tools from now on. You are so lucky, you landed in a place with people around. Imagine being in an isolated island with no one around. Looking forward to more of your adventures.
Wow!!! Chucky, you managed very well . It was beautiful being up there and seeing the beautiful view. Glad you’re okay and safe and a belated happy 4th of July🇺🇸
Please be more careful, we only have one Chucky in the world and that is you!!!!!!! I really enjoy your videos and I am very happy that you are healthy . stay bleesed 👍
An extra prop is not the answer. There’s a good chance it would have cracked on that failed takeoff, and it’s just not something we do. Are you going to carry a spare netting, cage spars, and hoop pieces also? Work on your touch and goes someplace safe and where you’re not bothering anyone. Take note the areas you land have a terrain conducive to taking back off(not soft sand). Don’t prematurely jump into the seat, and you won’t slam the prop into the ground 100% of the time.
You put a lot more trust in your engine than I do, man! That low flying over the water looks fun, but creeps me out! 😅 Thank you for sharing, man! Glad you were okay and you found help! Now you have a nice story to tell! 😎
It is good you are alive Chuck. (...next time take an inflatable raft, 5 gallons of water, munchies, sunscreen, flares, mosquito repellent, and a barbeque. That should cover it !) Oh, I forgot, batteries for your video !
Is it possible to balance the prop by breaking off the same amount on the other side with a pair of pliers so you have some thrust or is that a stupid question?
motor will overrev and you have not enough thrust since a big part of it is generated at the end. and it will never be balanced enough to not damage your motor further
I am new to Paramotoring. I saw your floatation devices attached on the side spokes. I have never seen that before. Have you tested it? I also live in Florida so floatation is a must. Making it as unobtrusive as possible is a goal....I like your solution. Let me know if you make it to the Disney area. Lots of farmland and sites up here.
The TH-camr who replies to all the comments. Dude I wish you design a two seater paramotor and I can be a pillion. Just the visuals are so astounding, imagine someone doing it for real!
Confused how the prop impacted the ground. Isn’t there a ring that goes all the way around it? Didn’t look like you fell back? Also how much is a replacement prop?
He jumped into the seat with less than enough airspeed around (over and under) the wing to lift him. Easy to do when it's mid-day hot, as the air is thin. Running on soft sand makes it easy to want to quit and just sit down... The cages are really only intended to prevent the paraglider lines from being struck by the prop during inflation. Some cages are strong enough to keep hands and arms from entering the dangerous area where the propeller spins, but good posture and proper technique are really what needs to be relied on, to keep both body parts and the ground itself out of the propeller. The protection the cage offers is secondary to skills. Sand is particularly challenging, as the frame can dig deeply into the sand, while the propeller is only protected by an inch or two of the ring's greater circumference. To top it all off, the hoop frames are semi-flexible and not really intended to prevent a full human's weight being dropped to the ground without some give. Some frames are designed to fail with the weight of impact as doing so absorbs energy, protecting the motor and pilot. $450
Whoa!! Broken prop🤨🤔 sorry that happened. Yes, carry an extra one with you when you fly. Thank goodness, for that boat. You could have been on that island all night. What about calling Coast Guard? Did you know ur corodiance? Flares, for evening flights? All the best......Be safe.....Shaun of NYC
Great flight , great scenery. Boca Grande over to Cayo Costa? Might be good to have some shoes/sandals just in case to avoid those sandspurs next time. Thanks for the low fly over that beautiful water!! Glad you got back ok. Cheers.
Tools maybe, but carrying an extra propeller is ridiculous. For about 2 years I carried 100' of braided climbing line and a figure 8 descender, because the area I often fly in is loaded with 100' tall pine trees. I thought self extraction/rescue would be the best policy if I ever had a motor quit and landed in a forest. As time went by however, I employed better decisions instead as insurance against landing in a stand of tall trees. What if the problem had been a broken part other than the prop? You can't reasonably carry spares for everything. Maybe an extra spark plug and some zip ties, but weight and cumbersomeness adds up fast. Far better to carry, would be a slate of better choices that experience can equip you with. When you have the entire community begging you to change how you fly and you ignore those pleas, you'll just have to figure those things out on your own.
I'm a 'cycling enthusiast who got a flat 12 miles from home on two separate occasions while the sun was going down. I now carry an extra tube, patches and a pump...always.
Never seen anyone carry an extra prop. But ALWAYS have a wing stuff bag under seat. And wear shoes! Lucky for you you didn’t strike your heels and only got the ground. Thankfully you fly the maverick frame!!
Hi ! Hahahahaha a bee. Sometimes, bees have meetings, at other hives, so you helping that bee; got him to the hive on time. 🐝 What would one feed a Manatee ? ( sorry, no manatee emoji ) All the best Shaun of NYC 🦉🦉
Hi Chucky, I am of the opinion you flew too close to the ground that you had the "prop strike" (very similar like when we sit too early during airborne phase in take off), however you're safe and managed to get the good Samaritan who helped you back to your take off spot. I myself a Paramotor pilot and enjoyed this activity very much, fly safe buddy ! 👍Regards from Jakarta.
Crap happens, glad it worked out, I hit the sand on a remote beach launch once and i got lucky it shredded the prop tape off but saved the prop itself so i was able to fly home, not applicable in your case though with that rocky sand.
Just found your channel and this is this very first video and I’ve watched hundreds of ppg vids but with as much as it seems you fly over water and sometimes In places with very little or no LZ with that being said do you carry a reserve and have any type what so ever of floatation for you or paramotor or both? Stay safe, fly high, try not to die. Yee yee
Whew you got back and safe from your pramotor 🙏🏻. Are you thinking about me ???? 😂 kidding you buddy just my sense of humor next time fly higher !!!! Lol
I was waiting for a crash failure. Might wanna pack an oh-shit bag, lightweight shoes, peanut butter, and some extra propellers. I still don't understand why the motor and propellers are not more protected. So I'm guessing the sand gave in too much to where the propellers made contact with the ground.
Rule of thumb, if you gotta pay to get in, usually can't fly out of it. But really, you have the skills to obviously pull that off, just complacency. Don't be in a rush to hop in that seat, looks like you jumped in a little. That false lift can get anybody.
how much does it cost to buy on of those paramotors? do you need a pilots license to fly one? high insurance costs? is it a very costly hobby? doesnt seem that expensive in fuel... what? 5 litres on a trip? i guess its expensive in terms of mileage compared to a car.. but not for flying.. or does it use special expensive fuel?
That’s just 5he cost of having extreme amounts of fun sometimes and we gotta be willing to pay it to play it right? Great video , and way to speak words of Truth over others 🤛
Wow am I shocked at just how many paramotor pilots there are in the comments flinging their criticism at you from the comfort of their couches. Good pilots share their successes. Great pilots share their failures. Looking forward to more adventures!
IL you bet that the first time in your life you broke your prop Its sords law mate You will always take a spare prop with you after today. Great video mate good luck in fly Paramotors mate
This would be my luck lol. But there wouldn’t be anyone around to help and I woulda broke my foot lol. thank god you live somewhere with people around even on random islands
@@ChuckyWright so. i took your advice and went to the beach for my second paramotor flight. (non barefood this time tho) i never beg for likes but oh boi would i feel honored to see your comment on my upload. thanks alot for the tips and help. full trims did the trick! 🤙
Keep always ur barefoot shoes on chuck ALWAYS shoes on 😜, even swim shoes in case you go for a dip in that yellow ish water that I find weird sometimes with all that white sand but still look yellowish😫
Be careful messing with that go pro pole especially how it was distracting you from flying with as low as you were. That can be a recipe for a disaster if you crash into those trees. Focus on flying and be safe. Thanks for sharing your video.
BE CAREFUL OF AIR HYPNOSIS. YOUR JUST FLYING ALONG AND THERE ARE SOME BIRDS FLYING SOUTH IN FORMATION. THE BEAUTY IS SO HYPNOTIC YOU MIGHT GET A SUDDEN REVELATION THAT YOU SOMEHOW GOT SEPARATED FROM THE FLOCK AND SEE THAT THE TIME IS NOW TO REJOIN. THEM. HAVE FUN IN FLORIDA, CHUCK. SEE YOU NEXT YEAR.
Sorry man about what happened... But remember, long as you're safe and nothing serious happened. It's all good man... So what exactly happened so we can learn from this? Did you take off from a high point off the ground? Or did you jump in your seat too fast and that caused the paramotor to go down so the the prop hit the ground? Also, have a pair of shoes with you for emergencies lol.
Just another reason to get a flat top. You would have skidded on the crumple zone stands and be up in the air in a few seconds. See this all the time on you tube 😊

@@ChuckyWright 😂😂
Sorry man about what happened... But remember, long as you're safe and nothing serious happened. It's all good man... So what exactly happened so we can learn from this? Did you take off from a high point off the ground? Or did you jump in your seat too fast and that caused the paramotor to go down so the the prop hit the ground? Also, have a pair of shoes with you for emergencies lol.
I got into me seat to soon
@@ChuckyWright okay, i thought that.. learning experience man.
Just another reason to get a flat top. You would have skidded on the crumple zone stands and be up in the air in a few seconds. See this all the time on you tube 😊
