Paraglider pilot here. I know it's MSFS and I wouldn't expect it to be anywhere close to simulating a paraglider, but approaching deep on the brakes is the worst thing you can do. In fact, you want your approach to be close to trim speed (hardly any brake input), which sets you far from the stall point and gives you enough energy for the flare. If you stall low you are f..up. Parachute stalls are hard because you lose the wing shape, the parachute stays behind and you basically drop like a rock till you hang yourself again under it. If you rely on the engine for slow vertical speed, if you lose the engine or get some windshear, you will get down shortly, probably upside down with your face already planted in the earth 😂. That being said, it's a simulator and you walk away every landing. But if you want to make it more real, please consider a better approach method!😅
Looks like fun. This puts new meaning into 'Low and Slow' flying - great for sightseeing. Enjoy!
Yes, you can do wait shift too, even in the two place

Thanks, it is good to get a reality check. It definitely felt wrong watching this video.
That is a power parachute you steer with your feet and they are very enjoyable to fly
@@richeford3467 It's still a parachute. You steer by using the brakes.
@@richeford3467I can see that there are some trikes that the brakes are controlled by your feet, instead. Do you fly those?
@ yes I fly a power parachute and it controlled by input with your feet and fuel I never flown a paraglider no, they are very similar
