I’m from Ireland 🇮🇪 Just bought a Paramotor this week I need to get a wing next but he gave me a harness and wing for paragliding to practice ground work with for now I’ll go for lessons ect just subscribed to the channel ✅
Nicely put together Vid thanks. I'm interested in the really good quality of noise cancelling you are achieving on your sound setup - I kept thinking you were motor off it was so quiet :-) but when you were wall hopping towards the end I realised you weren't doing that. I've used 360 camera a bit on my flights but sound of the engine needs editing out for sure. Mind you I've never recorded my voice over headset yet... (what app works easiest?) maybe I'll surprise myself when I do...
I honestly can’t imagine what it would feel like being free in the air alone to do whatever you want. There’s no traffic you don’t need to worry about getting pulled over. You can get hit by planes and smack into power lines or trees. If I get one Im sticking with just flying. No tricks for me😂
Just curious, it there no minimum altitude or distance from obstacles for paramotors? Are there any height or visibility (i.e above cloud) restrictions, based on the fact that GA operate down to around 1500ft and military down to 250 ft.?
Use Gaggle (prob best one, you can see live aircraft, it talks to you and you can actually see your friends on the app a bit like flight radar for planes) or Sky demon (This ones expensive though)
Yo FG how long have you been flying?, have you been to any of the parafest festivals?I miss my flying, did a few trips to N Wales cloud base at 1800 ft snowdonia awesome mate ✌👍
I was into this sport an what a buzz, we did a flight from Doncaster to cleethorpes, I've got the humber bridge on some footage somewhere, bit off advice it can be a very xpensive hobby, braking props is not a cheap hobby lol
Depends on motor and tank size, wing size and most critically on the wind speed, but on a low wind day and with 10 litres of petrol onboard you could do 4 hours at say 30 mph over the ground so 120 miles maybe. I usually run out of concentration long before that, and I'm sure someone who's done some long cross-country will be along with some different numbers.

Crazy how you practically become a meteorologist after learning to fly.
Great video. Love the music
Lovely scenery.
Amazing video. Where is the rock face please?
Anyone got any good tips on how to convince your wife to let you get one?
Don't tell her 😂
Just get one!
Divorce. 😂
I'm having the same problem but with a GSXR 750 at the moment
Forgiveness is easier to get than permission my mate
Great flying mate 👍
Cheers Dudes
Nice video, thank you!
You're welcome J

Iirc in the UK you need to be at least 500ft away from the nearest ground/object, I can't remember the cloud visibilities though
I've had a PPL and a gliding licence in the past. Apart from being able to run a bit, what else do I need?
What do you use to figure about what airspace you are in? Is there an app on your phone?
Use Gaggle (prob best one, you can see live aircraft, it talks to you and you can actually see your friends on the app a bit like flight radar for planes) or Sky demon (This ones expensive though)
Be back for a shred soon dude ❤️
