  • Can you really fly a 12m2 miniwing with a paramotor. Sure you can! The Little cloud EZ carry energy very well but is dynamic and does not handle turbulence well so I had to chose my location and conditions with that in mind. You also need a powerful engine to gain altitude with the Moster 185 as a minimum.

    This is a great sport! It's amazing to get up there and free that freedom. This is my second year doing it with one complaint. Buying my wing ( brand new) I decided for big ,(29m) slow and safe. Take offs and landings are easy but Its like driving a big truck. I should have bought smaller.

      Yes. I see that a lot. People get in the sport with wings they immediately want to upgrade. Better in my opinion to start out with a wing that takes and gives feedback and build sufficient skills with it before taking their first flight.

      Hehe. Well I'd say not faster than usual with a 15m reflex but the more challenging part is the inflation part. It's so sensitive and the lines are so short that it rules out forwards.

    The more wind blowing the smaller the wing. You reduce sail on a boat.

      @@manofsan I hear you are not experienced yet with PM. you will have to learn with bigger wings all things first. Then move down. PM wings are very different. Once at that point you will know all of this... The wing I fly here is not for PM. It is very efficient and therefor dynamic. It is also very slow for the smal size it is. It was just a test for me. I would never normally fly it with motor. The smallest anyone ever fly with motor is 14 (reflex) and its much faster then this mini paraglider.

    Interesting! Were you overweighted on the wing? I'm curious how much you and your rig weigh and the specs on the miniwing for weight.

    • @jensfalck_TheSwede
      @jensfalck_TheSwede  3 года назад +1

      Hi. I don't care about weight range stated. Any specific wing can carry the same weight. The lines are the same on all sizes. So don't be fooled thinking a bigger size won't brake on you. That said it's all about can you launch it? And what do you want out of it. This is not a good wing for PM as a general but if you just want to dive and do loops it's fun to try. I'm @115kg dry

    • @ooglek
      @ooglek 3 года назад +1

      @@jensfalck_TheSwede Valid point -- I didn't think about the breaking strength of the lines being the same on a 12m as a 31m wing. I know my MacPara Charger has specific requirements for each of the different lines, and it sounds like I made the incorrect assumption that a 12m might use lower breaking strength lines. Wouldn't the load of the pilot and motor be more spread out on a larger wing, even if the lines themselves had the same breaking point? I haven't thought it fully through... I also don't know if there are more lines on a larger wing than a small tiny one like your 12m.
      Thanks for the info!

    • @jensfalck_TheSwede
      @jensfalck_TheSwede  3 года назад

      @@ooglek the Load will not be more spread out. The number of lines are the same. Also, the load transfers to the wing via the tabs/fixing points. Those are also the same and are not supposed to be a weak link in the load chain. A line is supposed to break first. It will never be the fabric in between to fixing points that breaks so size of wing doesn't give you any higher break load capacity.

      All manufacturers have good beginner wings also suitable for intermediate pilots. Try ground handle a lot so your skillz are at such a level you can be a bit heavy on the wing you choose.
