Jonas, I’m glad you did a review of this paraglider. This company is owned by a longtime friend’s son who I’ve followed over the years on the prototypes. It didn’t dawn on me he’d started shipping these out until I went to their site and recognized him and his VW with Ohio plates in their RUclips video. Enjoy the paraglider. Paul’s engineering skills are extremely high.
Ok
Yo can he send me one?
Never done that before, I do like the clean electric hassle free non Smokey clothes afterwards option, awesome!
I've got the same machine, have had it for about 6 months. I really like it. I've got a monster 185 on a parajet as well, they serve different purposes. There's nothing better than a cruise to watch the sunset on the electric. It's so nice and smooth! Enjoy! I haven't left sport mode, I'll have to try the chill mode sometime. I love the amount of power it has. It does tend to taper off toward the lower percentage of battery so keep that in mind.
For someone that flies both what would you say are the advantages and disadvantages of the electric over gas?
is the sp140 very heavy?
1:20 That look and then the tractor running was straight up Napoleon Dynamite and I LOVE IT!!!
I was skeptical at first and I am even an Electric flight type of guy, could not believe how powerful that thing is, looks like a blast, I am sold. Got to get one!
Get an EUC while your at it.
better write a nice note to father christmas this year
The farming was quite interesting change of activities, and it is very nice to see you back on the aviation side along with Silvia. A great couple doing interesting and fun things together...wonderful and thank you for sharing. BTW, motorcycle helmets with Sena headsets, their boom mikes and the shared rider feature would work great air-to-ground plus for your recordings--on motorcycles, from 0-75+mph, everyone told me that I sounded right next to them with no wind noise or anything.....
I’ll look into them. Thanks!
"It has a beast mode.... I don't think I'll ever really need it!" We've watched your videos, and we call BS.
Yeah, he can’t resist beast mode! He’ll probably try get the tractor airborne.
Need it is different to use it because he can😁
Hasn’t he crashed about everything he’s flown?
Why everyone such a sourpuss?
Get some sena bluetooth headsets so you can talk to each other while you’re flying. We were using them for short hauling on and around powerlines. They were made for bikers I think and work great around motors like bikes and helicopters and probably paramotors. They go on helmets easily too. Seems like that rig should have a remote control for drone/instruction mode or something.
That torque twist was nuts on launch! I’d be careful with that beast.
@coleoilot6. "I'd be careful"? Duh???.... Being careful is a must with any type of flying. Just so ya' know.
@@Adam-tj5hv. Grow up and stop being so childish.
@@james1795 Yes however everything has a failure mechanism and part of being safe is recognizing that and looking out for each other in this community. Your feedback is neither valuable or constructive.
His hang point is too reclined.
@@glidewillie5767. Yes, however, your insight is lame bull shit. Which view contributes to nothing on the subject.
I freaking love my SP140! Good choice 🤙🏻
Nice! I have the X4 and really enjoy flying it. Sure you'll have a blast with the SP140. Good luck!
Very nice build and not complicated, must have fun to fly, greetings from Remi from Belgium
Nice to see you Jonas having something to pump up your adrenaline. You are a really gifted guy. You can do anything and we will enjoy watching you do it. You and Silvia are just the real deal. Best of wishes.
Absolutely love your videos Jonas, keep it up!
You seem like the nicest man. If every one was like you the world would be a better place
What a sweet thing to say.
I was really excited about this video coming !! More please!!
So cool. What an exciting hobby.
I gave to say that with it being an electric motor, I thought it would be much quieter.
Most of the noise is the prop whacking through the air
Nice!! I could SEE the torque that thing's got in the form of your climb rate! Pretty impressive! Will be great to climb high, then go off throttle for total SILENCE as you glide down. I'm too nervous to shut mine down in the air, even though I have E-start. My luck the battery will crap out (It runs my strobe, too), and I won't be able to get it started again, lol. It always starts, but I just don't feel comfortable shutting it off up there! I also just replaced the starter last week! The Bendix failed, and I couldn't separate the halves to attempt a fix. That made me mad! It would throw out and crank for about a second, then retract and spin to 10k RPM, lol. They must've used industrial Loctite on the gasket surfaces of those halves!!
Was cool to see this in my notification list when I got home. Just flew tonight with my buddy. Another friend was there, and he got some AMAZING pics of us taking off into the sun. They came out great! I've got to throw a video together with all the footage, but have been super busy lately (Not a bad thing in this economy). Last time I tried to fly, I climbed for about 20 seconds and ended up in the soup! Didn't realize the ceiling was that low. Was perfect tonight - buttery smooth!! 😎 Can't wait to see this one in future vids, and also Silvija's kiting! That's great! Would be really sweeeeeet to see the both of you flying together some time in the future! 👍😎👍
This was fun watching an electric paramotor!! Keep flying because you’re bringing us into a new era and you’re amazing!!
He made the right move. They are a load of fun to fly ruclips.net/video/G83o79F9gGw/видео.html
Great to see you flying again. However, I really would argue that you need to acquire and use a wind sock on your personal airport. Light winds can change direction in an hour. Several times in the past I have seen you attempt down wind landings and have problems. While that maybe ok with RC, it is not when you are in the aircraft!
I have about 150 tows in gliders, 100 hours in ultralights. Confirming the wind direction should be part of a landing checklist!
A two pack of 60” American flag hoop & streamer socks are like $12 on Ebay. Just clip on to an old fishing pole and zip tie to a fence post…walla !
Looks like an ideal platform for electric power. Very cool!
I’m so happy to see you in the air! Your joy really moves me!
Thanks for sharing!
Damn, Martha. This boy can fly anything.
Awesome, I just got my batch 3 SP140 delivered in Aus. Rules are different here, I need an endorsement from my PG license to PPG license before I can fly it. I cannot wait to get the endorsement, please keep posting more videos of this machine 🪂🪂
BLOKE you need a license in this country to take a dump. Even if you have the runs💩💩💩 like uncontrolled. . . . As they say (whomever they are ? ? ? ) “Ya get that” Anyway Verve 6k get your Parental Guidance ticket. Then VK let her rip. Then just enjoy and put her into smile mode 😊 and grin like, no tomorrow is actually on the breakfast menu. Have fun mate. Same to you Jonas, you have a very infectious love of what it actually is that floats your boat J. ☮️ Out mate. & keep spreading the love.
Please more paramotor videos. Especially showing off the capability and flight time of the Open Paramotor
Tucker Gott move over ...Show me more ... all jokes aside I really enjoy your content...thanks for all the effort you put into your video ...Thanks !
That look like a ton of fun!
Can not wait to see more of this!
Be safe! ;)
Only Jonas would go flying with a ceiling fan strapped to his hind end!!! 😂😂😂 Just kidding. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!
Great video! Very fun to watch!! Thanks!
Been years, but we had a Buckeye PPC. The Rotax 503 had plenty of ooooommfph at 5500 feet and the tricycle gear was super easy. I like this idea, but getting older and I don't think the knees would handle it!.... Looks like fun though, hurry and get her in it!
Just got my one too, first couple of flights done. The set up is incredible. Chill mode is really pretty sporty, super satisfying!
We're flying!!! Good to see you back up in the air
That was probably the BEST landing in history!!! #TonyStarkLevel #BlackWidowLevel
Super cool! The power will amaze you. The importance of "cruise control" is not an option with electric ... It is required.
With gas, a varity of throttle positions can result in the same engine (prop) RPM depending on load. With the electric, throttle position will always result in the same RPM almost instantly. Lifting throttle is braking ... but tuneable in the controller. My guess is freewheeling is set to max to reduce engine braking.
Everyone will want one.
3 09 cracking some Heineken and pistachios, I have no idea how I managed to end to this video, but I might get into this type of adventure. Looks amazing!
You guys are awesome. Good winds to you.
What you need is a big ass mountain behind the launch site, facing the late afternoon wind, like my place about an hour ago! You could have stayed up power off, no sweat.
So true! I need to come visit
Dude don’t kill yourself with that thing. You have a lot to live for. 💥
Sure thing there Jeffy dude. His intention is to give up everything he has to live for and to go out and kill himself. Damn, "dude", such a lame comment.
Definitely the right tech. Be safe with it.
Bring on the paramotor videos!!!
Glad to see you back in the air! Plane, paramotor, whatever. Just flying!
Can’t wait for more videos like this, awesome.
Lolz we get 1:06 in “whatareya deeeeewwwwwin!? Loooolz love it
Great video, I am glad you are back in the sky!
Seen thumbnail... "wait, this isn't Tucker!". Leaves.
Oh yeah… my new Christmas wish list… just got to get wifey to agree.
Too cool , need to rock it in beast mode - altitude
I love the idea of it but the shorter flight time just doesn’t do it for me. Hoping in the next several years the energy density really goes up and you could get a few hours cross country on electric.
CAREFULL!!! YOU MUST HAVE INTALLED THE NET INCORRECTLY! It must be that it should be mounted the front side of the spars?? Looks super scetchy haven the net unsupported. Cant stop much when its installed like that and could go min to the prop. Fly safe man! 👍
Ya this is grade A terrifying.
Ya, this is crazy and typical with his vids. He seems to put himself in needlessly dangerous positions on purpose. Poor decision making and aviation of any kind don't mix well.
Came to make this comment!
I've got pretty much the identical little 4 stroke that you built. I tuned mine a bit and added a thrust bearing. I've thought about putting a powerful little RC motor on it for electric start and boost.
Been eyeballing the SP140 for a while...might pull the trigger and get one... Been out or paramotoring for while..time to get back in that saddle...nice flight👍👍👍
the electric makes it a little nicer for just getting up and going, no messing with fuel and mixture settings. it just goes.
Have you have any problems with yours since you've had it???
Looks like a very powerful ceiling fan! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Ha!! The end to "hot and bothered". Too funny Ms. Cook. (PS. My great aunt was married to a Cook. Here in the Hoosier state many years ago.)
Very cool, as a side note the netting goes in front of the spars. Happy flying!
Launch that wing trims all the way out.
The inflations will be much easier.
The brake range will be deeper.
And it won't want to stall or spin on you while you run.
Launch trims up, fly trims down, land trims down!
Scariest part of the flight is when the weather wimins get on the tractor 2:00 looooooolz!!! Does she drive in the correct side of the road!? I keed I keed!
They got a kit to upgrade a Zenith to electric?
Can’t wait to see beast mode!
At first at sea level, "Sport" mode was a bit much spinning my 3-blade 140cm prop.....it is a "beast" re: instant power and torque. At altitude, the beast gets more tame and becomes more manageable. I love my SP140....but I must admit, I really enjoy flying my OpenPPG X4 "angry bees" too! This is the future...Now! Thanks, Paul and Zach!
Bill
Love it!
Now If you could meet your fans at some Fly-In's !
You need to clean that prop with some prop wash.
😝 indeed.
Waiting until the next morning to fly, amazing restraint, you're learning! lol
It was hard to resist!
At 7:01, it looks like the assembler guy has webbed fingers !!!!
Also, for calm days, could you spike the wing with helium, to give you extra lift, and lighten your overall weight when you are up?
This guy loves flying. Noice
Hey Jonas, think of a Highlander for your next bushplane.
Wow that prop is loud!
The future is here. I have seen these fly over at Salton Sea for a couple years now.
I've been thinking about this very thing....not wanting a carbon-fueled motor for lots of reasons, all of them good ones :)
You get a lot of use out of that tractor 👍😃
Loved the video. Glad to see you in the air 😀
I love it!
Thanks for sharing!
Hey Jonas! Love your videos. I’m no Tucker Gott but I’ve been flying ppg a couple of years now and started my own channel (Matty H). It look like you had quite a bit of torque twist on takeoff. I think your hang point is too far forward. You may need to move it back but I noticed in the video that you may already have it on the most aft position. Could be that the battery has to much mass for your body weight. Torque twist can bring a world of pain if not managed properly. Fly safe brother. Cheers!
Jonas, you are an amazing presenter and I believe Electric Para is the way to go but have a care in hilly terrain.
#TKOR
You are going to have to sing off key while you fly!! Otherwise, the Karens will never hear you, and will have NO reason to get angry and call the law on you!! What's the fun in fun if someone does not want to stop it?? Honestly, it looks fantastic!! AND I love the idea that it does NOT really upset the world with it's presence. I would probably need a twin engine one but dang that looks GREAT!! I wish you and your lady MANY wonderful (and safe) hours of flying fun with your machine (s).. Enjoy.. Thanks for sharing.
Do a balance check on the prop. It sounds out of balance.
Somebody call Tucker Gott plz. Would love to see a collaboration
That first landing sounded like Flubber
I love the 2 Homer Simpson modes.
This is really exciting! Less noise less attention?
SWEET!
My game plan is to get paragliding instruction sometime next year and then get this thing the following year (2024). I'm not sure if it's viable, but the plan is I'm going to paraglide like normal (except not in the middle of the day) and use this with the smaller battery to help keep me in the air. Basically, this thing will be my substitute for thermals.
hell yeah awesome video and you guys have a great personality....fun to watch and i just bought a new harley but this could be my next purchase.........glen
Sylvia's comment was exactly what I was thinking....EVERY LANDING should be that easy...2 steps and the wing floats down behind you....just PERRRRRRFECT! So what did this thing cost ya???
....AND....did you just buy the motor, harness and seat, or did you buy the air foil, wing thing too.
Please give us some comparisons of this electric para glider and a cobustion engine one the same size.
After watching other paramotor vids this electric still sounds like 2-stroke.
Seriously silvja get that darn life insurance policy! Haha. Love it tho!
Lame.
If you get a battery fire in a car you pull over and get out.
If you get a battery fire at 1000 feet with a the batteries right next to you it's not going to end so well.
They need to either fully contain the danger or make it eject like a ballistic chute in emergencies.
Looks like fun!
Is it me or is your hang point too far forward? The thrust angle was pointing down a lot at level cruise. (says the fixed wing and ultralight pilot that never flew a para* )
Congratulations.... It´s so clear to me that all paramotors will be electric soon. No more two stroke smoking nightmares. I hope people at Vittorazi see your video. You are a very lucky person. Fly safe, mind that killer propeller always and... Go Vegan . Best from Santiago, Chile.
Vegan is Good--Cows Eat Grass--I Eat Cows--Same Thing...
Wow, you can fly everything! Congratulations! I was worried for you for landing, you were going quite fast, and whoufff, you controlled the thing perfectly and did an amazing perfect landing!
You are so cute together! God bless you both!
Wow....cool.....nice landing 👍👍🌟👍👍
So much torque with electric motor
Now that's cool! The electric motor is the only way to go.
It would be a great tool for #farmers. It would #transform the way that they #survey their land and crops and cattle and others. 👈🧐🤔💡✌️
That thing is louder than a gas one!
Maybe that's what I should adapt to my hang glider. I've been wanting to put an electric motor on it for a while.
I’m sure the OpenPPG guys would help you out.
The only drawback for any reason if those batteries catch fire🔥🔥 which we all know they have known to happen
Engines explode
Either can be used safely if properly built and maintained
@@KaitouKaiju engines explode, mean blowing a rod usually don't burst into flames they just stopped running, lithium batteries on the other hand🔥🔥🔥🔥
6:06 at least ''in the morning'' you had a little bit of BREEZE to inflate the canapy...~!!! cool seeing ya get back ''off the ground!!!'' altho the farmer stuff is cool as I said b4
I would love to get into this sport. I wouldn't mind trying an electric paramotor.
You were born to fly, for sure. Maybe next, it will be in a flying saucer (electric) ! 😁
Lame.
Nice landing, congratulations
