And I thought it was only ME! Your tip on paramotoring ‘consuming’ your life and becomes ‘addictive’ is SO true! I’ve been flying various machines from hangliders to fixed wing aircraft for 25 years now and have had approx. 20 hours with my new Miniplane but have become obsessed!!!! You touched on it with your observations re: weather etc. But is it me or do others think the same that’s when it happens, patiently for the right conditions… it’s all worth it? For me when it’s good it’s Brilliant 🤩
Hi mate, thanks for the comment! Mini plane paramotors are great pieces of kit! I'm glad your agree about it consuming you! There's nothing quite like it!
From DUBLIN CITY IRELAND I just finished watching a video you on a small wing. I'm 50.🤔 and was ALLWAYS interested in paragliding as a hobby but never got time, now got time business gone, I'm looking for a hobby for my mind body soul. and your vid pops up i SUBED. GOD BLESS YOU PALL.✝️. Ps) please could you give me some advice on best starting kit how much you think the lot would cost me, or best estimate in euros I would appreciate your advice greatly. Thanks pall. GOD BLESS YOUR PATH AMEN.✝️.
The price varies massively, it could be from 6k to 16k depending what you want, it’s too broad to say. My advice would be to get on Google and find a school in NI then go from there mate
What a lovely comment! Thank you very much, its greatly aprecated! I have a part 1 to paramotoring also, you may be interested in. If you have any questions then just ask away 👍🏼
Can you do a cost analysis of wing wear and tear as in uv damage. Flight hours on a wing before its unsafe. and harness life. also engine hours before replacement. boil it down to cost per hour. My feelings would be hurt if I knew that the 13,000 dollars I spent just evaporated after a couple of years. Nobody talks about that.
This is a fantastic idea Peter! I don't think I have the knowledge to do this im afraid. What I do know is that if you look after a wing (pack it away correctly etc) then it will last 5 years plus. The motor will always need little bits of work, either a spark plug or something pettly like that. It's very expensive to get into, but I can promise you it's well worth it! I'm far from a wealthy guy, I'm just an average 30 Yr old who is forever thinking of ways to make more money.... And I think it's well worth the cash. I hope this helped in some way. Thanks Peter
@@DansEscapadesThanks for the reply. I bought one of the first paraplanes in like 1987.Thats what it was called. look it up. it had two engines very cool design. flew it a couple of hours and then rolled it. broke a prop sold it after that. Didnt have a close place to fly, not convienient.
Going to be starting soon and want to get 1 wing only and practice with it for awhile. What is a next set up wing from a beginner one? What would you recommend?
It makes complete sense to use the wing you trained i on, for a while. Get some serious hours on it. As for a wing after that, it's very difficult to suggest one... It all depends on flying style, and what you want to do. So if suggest speaking to the person that trained you (after you have some hours under your belt)
@@DansEscapades By the way, I really appreciated your video. I’ve only recently become aware of paramotoring. It has my interest peaked. As I watched numerous videos it took mere seconds to realize “Super Douche Dell” is a complete dick. I hate to even mention his name…but for other newbies to the sport, they should beware. Besides the owl stunt (and the lies surrounding it), he’s had a student under his watch die and in lieu of promoting the sport, he just runs everyone else down. Looking forward to more of your videos. Be safe!
@@waldoinaz jesus, I didn't hear of him before now! I'm going to look into it more. This sport is dangerous enough without people adding r it dk by being dicks. The arm wansnt done on a paramotor, it was a small mini wing. Il do a video on it at some point in the future. I aprecate the kind words, if I can ever help with anything let me know. Stay safe Dan🥃
@@DansEscapades I took Dells training twice and I will get my motor soon. As a believer in Jesus Christ I learned to forgive people. Also I peeled away all of the craziness surrounding Dell, looked at what he taught and his paramotor then decided to go with his training. His nephew runs things for the most part now as Dell is semi retired. In person he really does care about his students. The internet can be cruel at times. Is he quirky yes but his training is great. Thanks again for the video and tips.
Mate, this made me laugh! You are correct on the wing size. The smaller the wing, the less lift you have, and the faster you go. So it varies massivly, each wing has a reccomended flying weight usually (sorry if you knew all that, idk if your are looking at getting into the sport)
thank for sharing. appreciate it

@@peterrestaino7047 I thi k I'd sell it too, after rolling it😂. Any injuries?
Il check it out, I love seeing how far the flying world has progressed
Great tips!
I'd appreciate if you share a link of the orange smoke at the beginning of the video. Thanks!
The smoke was a paintball pyrotechnic. They are made by a company called "enola gaye"... Can get them online brother, about £5
@@DansEscapades Amazing, Thank you very much

you will know what wing you want when you are ready to buy.
I'm going with Gravity for my motor but I don't think they sell wings
@@zoeconner11 the wing doesn't have to match the motor mate. If look at ozone, they have some amazing & safe wings for your first
Can so releate to number one.
🙈
Not always a good thing.
I can't relax if it's flying condition and I am not in the air.
I think it's a good thing mate! Beats having a dull life... Adventure is good for the soul
@@DansEscapades true:)
The weather have been proper shit. Lately.
I want to fly.
But u too I guess 😅
I hope you are healing well. 👌
@@JoarABTheflyingraven get to the UK mate, you will see what shit weather is 😂.
I want to fly, but I'm not in a fit state to yet mate
Great tips Dan..thanks..🙌
You are more than welcome, thanks for watching 👌🏼👍🏼
Great Vid
Thank you, I really appreciate that! Thanks for watching 🥃
The arm injury…did you recently train with Dell Schanze?
😂 No mate, I stayed clear of Dell Schanze.... I had to goodie him. Chasing down Owls😂😂

Wing size depends on your weight doesn’t it,I get you can go a bit smaller but I’m 17stone 😂
