Paramotor Quad Review & Discussion With Powered Paragliding Industry Experts

Your best video yet. Really enjoyed it. So how would you go about getting an "N" number from FAA, if you have a pilot's license and want to take up a passenger?

I would also love to see a video discussing the different types of wings and their performance characteristics.

Are the Quad and foot launch options interchangeable?

Cool new format. You should talk about your wings.

When will you have an electric motor version???

you guys r awsome ....love the passion u put in to your product

Great video. ... love my lowboy quad....wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. PS. ..pretty darn cool what you guys do for those that normally would not be able to fly.

I have a question relating to the quad and foot launch.

I understand that maybe an older or out of shape or disabled individual would always want to use the quad. But what about a person that falls in between? I am a newbe and this may be a dumb question but here goes.....

I could see times where I might want to use the quad and other times I might want to foot launch. Is the equipment attached to the quad (wing and motor) interchangeable?

Can I take them off of the quad put them on a foot launch harness and use them? Or would the wing size need to be changed due to the loss of the weight of the quad? Is the engine used on the quad to big to be used as a foot launch motor?

In other words do I need two completely separate rigs to fly each way? One quad set up and one foot launch set up?

thank u Mike for the use full information .

Great video! I am 200 pounds, is there a simple setup where I could unmount the paramotor from the quad and foot launch? Or is it once you buy the quad it stays a quad?

Thanks!

great stuff  .....Thanks for  upload...

Do you guys every do remote training?  I live in Utah 10 minutes from the point of the mountain flight park.  I want to get into Para-motoring but can not find many local options. 

I'm 275 pounds what's the best quad for my size an how much is it?

Great discussion. You cleared things up for me on the quad issues! What a nice looking ride.

I know you came to Costa Rica to train some Kiwi SF people, but how about a regular Joe? I'd love to try this... Did you train instructors in over here, I mean do you know someone to reach over here? Thanks!

i cant take this review seriously since its inherently biased. need to hear it from a non-sponsored 3rd party.

I'm an average Joe, because I am a Joe. I live near Los Angeles and have seen these out near Edwards AFB where I work for Pratt & Whitney out past Lancaster and Palmdale, CA. West of the base is Rosamond, this is the area I have watched them while at Willow Springs Raceway in Rosamond. Are these the area's you can fly these? I think I'm going to give myself and my wife a really cool Christmas present! Is there a list or map of places you can fly these in California, Nevada and Arizona? Most likely a two seater is in my.....Opps, I just heard you say 2 seaters are illegal unless you have a  license and you do the 50% thang which I don't want to have anything to do with, I want it out of the box. I'll be in touch soon, I'm heading to England/UK then Germany for two months to bring some U.S. Air Force plane caps and mechs up to date on upgrades to the F-15 engines.

I fly everything from LSA`s to RC everything and PPGs are the next thing I just gotta try. Really like the quad design. Im young and fit but like the idea and doing touch n goes where it is safe to do so and I like the idea of taking passengers. I`m in Australia so this is allowed as we dont have Part 103 - Whats the additional equipment needed to take a passenger and what is the weight limit please ? Obviously this will depend on the engine option so what would you recommenced for me at 90 Kgs please ? Can you please link your Australian importer ? Great video Btw...

how realistic is it for a 300lb guy to fly a ppg quad?

can a 350lb man paraglide

nobody seems to talk about the different parashutes! theres tiny ones and big ones why!

Do you need license to fly those?

Hello BlackHawk,
I’m definitely going with a Quad. The thing which engine I’m going with. I like the Air Max, Hell Cat and the big one. The Air Max is the last of Foot launching PPG than can go Quad. you guys make it very hard to make a good decision. I need more advice to make a good decision. Do you still need good Kiting skills for a Quad? Is there instructions for Kiting as well? Can you guys do a Kiting video for the folks considering and interested in Kiting as well. I’m not trying to learn how to kite. I would to see how it’s done. No trade secrets have to be given away. Ground School video would be nice, keep your trade secrets, just wet our lips. Thank you!
José Montalvo!

Sweet. Just what I wanted to know.

How much does the quad weigh? I want one to fly in and out gear. I weigh about 260lbs and would like to be able to handle another 150lbs.

Can a 160 lbs guy fly a quad that's designed for a 300 lbs guy ?

I'd like to see independant shockies on the wheels and the option for a small ballistic chute above and behind the pilots seat being a blast plate of course. Does using the reserve make the unit desend in a 'sideways' position? Also has anyone made an electric paramotor?

i noticed you was talking about the trike turtling i was thinking maybe adding a wheelie bar of some sort to the frame and i also noticed that in the video when you land with the trike you are pulling up on the front as in a plain. So the addition of some sort of wheelie bar on the back of the frame i would think would help eliminate the turtling of the trike

WHAT ABOUT ELECTRIC POWER MOTOR?

Does the quad handle much cross wind take-off & landing?

When are you changing the front tube design to gain leg clearance ?

can you fit skis to the wheels and use this in winter? or water?

blackhawk is the best brand in world, no doubt about it

Very eye opening... Great job

I believe your trike(my preference) would be better or more stable if you would put negative caster into the front wheel.

Went to a local school where they teach only quad. I took a tandem ride. Realized I did not want to get into this sport if I am locked into quad. Trike is way better. Glad you guys sell the trike now.

can you get a 525 lb guy off the ground? under 2000 foot elevation. if not what is my new weight loss goal. i want to fly so much.

Can you put skis on it for winter flying?

I am 55 and don't like to run, quad or trike is best for me.
