@@HappyRCFlyer ok

Hey, my friend! 👋 Thanks for your kind words and support of the channel! 😃 Good on you for picking up the Ball-Link plyers, man I have tore up some plastic ball sockets in the past by using a pocket knife to get them loose.😢 It's definitely a tool 🛠 that makes life a bit easier! 😁

@MegaTestla; Hey, thanks for taking the time to drop a comment! 😃 I hope you'll consider Subscribing if you haven't already,👍🏼 I would like to hear how you like/dislike the new V2? You do make a valid point 👉 on the fact that it's referred to as a "wing" by professionals! 🫡 I often forget and use them interchangeably because it can look much like a skydiving parachute and just a motor added! *(although a closer look will reveal they are very different in many ways)*🤔 But on a lighter note...😁 Do you know the difference between a Paramotor and a Parachute? When the motor stops running, you'll just know!!! 😄😅🤣

@gianluca387 Great question! 👍🏼 It's actually not necessary to use any type of gyro, since these tend to have a self leveling/ pendulum effect! That's the simple answer but I'll be giving more explanation on this subject in upcoming Paramotor videos so I hope you'll subscribe and stay tuned! 👍🏼😃

Hey, thank you! 😃 👍🏼

Hey, thanks for the encouraging words and support! Glad to hear! 👍🏼😃 Have a Happy Labor Day Weekend! 🧨🎉

Thank you, my friend! Glad you enjoyed it! 😃 👍🏼

Vous êtes les bienvenus, et merci pour votre soutien ! 👍🏼😃

Hey, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to share your thoughts! 👍🏼😃 Hope you'll consider Subscribing if you like the Unsponsored Hobbiest perspective! Let me start by saying... I've looked into becoming an Influencer in the past...(prior to starting this Channel) but decided against it, (and I'll explain why in a bit). So in my humble opinion I feel like I would be pretty familiar with how "Influencers" operate. 😁 I was already offered the opportunity to participate in such and declined it... and it wasn't because they didn't offer money or benefits... but because I felt it would change how I enjoy RC and alter my perspective and goals in sharing videos on this channel. I'm not meaning to put anyone down who chooses that Pathway but rather point out that I feel it can have a negative affect on the hobby as a whole in some ways. - Influencers usually don't pay full price for the items they are "reviewing", which has a big impact on their personal perspective of the item. (They rarely if ever disclose how much it cost to them and most of the time they get it for free.)🤨 If an item is free to the "Influencer" but actully cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars for a viewer/Hobbiest who might only make $13.per hour washing dishes in a hot restaurant kitchen... Than it will most definitely will affect the perspective of the value of that item.🤔 -Actually most "Influencers" don't just make pennies from Affiliate Links.. they are in it for the money and pennies wouldn't be worth doing it.. It's usually more like hundreds or thousands per month. And that most definitely has a sway on whether or not they will encourage others to buy what they probably just got for free. Haha. Hence the name "Influencers" because their job/career is to influence other people to buy things that they themselves got for free or are just being paid to promote. 😄 In other words they are not just a normal consumer who sweat to earn the money to buy one or who has really used it like a normal consumer would. They are generally too busy to spend too much time on one item when there are lots more items to promote. 😕 -Most manufacturers will preview the "review video" before the "Influencer" is allowed to post it publicly... if something breaks or the manufacturer doesn't like what is shared in the video or said and the video isn't "Approved" by the manufacturers sales team.. than the "Influencer" has to re-shoot the video or get a new item shipped and try again. If you took the "free items" out of the equation and affiliate link/referral commission money... Most would not be interested in doing what they do. They do it for the money. Thats why we often say.. Follow The Money! 🤑 😄🤣. So yeah, there is definitely a difference with how two people view an item if one guy is paying full price and another guy is getting it free and than makes money for every person he convinces to buy one. 🤔 Anyways, please don't take it personally ☺️ And thanks for bringing up the subject so we could further explain, but I felt it was worth the explanation so folks can understand that I do indeed have some base for what I am saying and hopefully other Hobbiest will appreciate why I have chosen to keep my channel as The Hobbiest Perspective! 😎 Unsponsored=Unbiased! -Let's Go Fly! 😃👍🏼

Hey, thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts! 👋 I hope you'll consider Subscribing if you haven't already. 😃 While it might not be very "Scale Flying", you are right! 😁 It handles surprisingly well for being a scale plane! I was very impressed! Can't wait to do some evening flying with it, I do like about any plane with scale lighting! 👍🏼 Do you have the V1 or V2?

@@HappyRCFlyer ive had the V-1 for 4 years and flew the wings off it and now have the V-2 and its been upgraded quite a bit but the propeller is a touch to small for my taste to get unlimited climb and hover

@user-iv7us4gp4l Hey, question! 👍🏼 Yes, it can be flown with SAFE on or off at any time or for the whole flight! Just make sure to adjust your bank angle in Forward Programming Settings to around 60 so you can get turned around in less than a mile! 😃👍🏼

@@HappyRCFlyer - Wait...What...you mean the receiver is "unlocked" I can use the forward programming in the NX7 to change bank angle ? NICE :>)

@user-iv7us4gp4l ; Yes, 👍🏼you should be able to make those adjustments without issues, from your Transmitter! 😃 How cool is that?!

@manicfour Welcome to the Paramotor Club! 👍🏼😃 You'll enjoy it! It takes a bit to adjust to but not bad at all! Interestingly, These are very similar to the full scale versions, so alot of what you might already know will be applied to the RC Paramotor! And yes, you'll want to stay tuned as there are lots more Paramotor content in the near future! 😃 Here is a Playlist of some videos of the previous version and in there you will find some helpful videos on setup and launch and more! Stay tuned!👍🏼🙂 ua-cam.com/play/PLG8HqKt2YJHiyZBipfFIvXORHKR24rpPy.html&si=vdDgl9EO0Rlz6FJn

@@HappyRCFlyer thanks had already begun last night watching two. Questions were being answered in the two. Thanks for sharing with me.

Haha, Thanks for your kind words! I actually had to look that word up and my wife got a good laugh from it! 😆 Now she calls me "Dapper"... lol.🙄😅 God bless, my friend! 👍🏼

Hey, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts!😃 I hope you consider Subscribing if you haven't already, as there is significantly more Paramotor videos upcoming!😁 It's sad when the designer and vendor can't strike a deal and ultimately it's the RC Community that gets shortchanged.😢 I agree with you, that I haven't seen this as a significant "upgrade", but rather more of a response to the fact that people do indeed want a budget RC Paramotor that won't break the bank and still flies well! You pointed out some really great questions which I failed to discuss in this video (for the sake of time), but should be answered in upcoming videos to be posted! Stay tuned! 😃👍🏼

@@HappyRCFlyer thanks for the reply HRCF! That was the appeal when it first came out, looking at others out there that are far from affordable, it's a real niche. I look forward to seeing the next videos and I am a sub :)

Hey, Much appreciated! 😃👍🏼

Hey, I'm sorry to hear of the hardship😢 but persistence is the mark of what it takes to be a true Paramotorist! (*I think I just made up a new word/name.*😅) Yes, let us know how you like the hacker wing! I agree about the "upgrades". Although I think it's a great buy, I don't see the need for all the hype... I'm glad they still produced one despite the Real V2 proposal not working out...but I always stand by honest as the best policy. 🤥 And thanks for sharing your thoughts, those are great video idea... I actually have one already but want to do some more testing before I feel ready to share my thoughts/opinions on them... *future videos coming" Let's just say I have lots more Paramotor content in the making! 😃

I curious too about the updated Foil, I own the old One and it is crap, does not even recover after a stall.

Nice! 😃Paramotors are so much fun! And honestly, it's probably the best budget Paramotor on the market! 👍🏼

Hey, always glad to hear from you, my friend! 😃 Yes, so true! 👍🏼 Was talking with another friend the other day about this subject and he mentioned that it could also be due to a motor getting warm/hot and the glue melting... but labels are prone to come loose sooner or later. That's probably why some manufacturers just etch/engrave the motor info onto the metal bell housing and just can the idea of paper labels and glue. Leave it to Horizon Hobby to take the low road! 😅👍🏼

Hey, thanks for stopping by the channel! 😃 Hats off to guys who fly the real ones! 👏 I had started training and was about to place my order but felt from the Lord that I should delay just a bit... just two week later, I met my wife! 😍 Haha! Life changed course a bit... Though she HAS since agreed to fly with me if I were to get a two-seater Trike! 😯 So you never know what the future holds! 😅 To answer your question, I have tried for ground take-offs but no success yet. 🥲 In the stock set-up the cart just tips over backwards and doesn't pick the chute up off the ground. I have some ideas to make it work but no success just yet... maybe a future video idea!💡 Definitely have more upcoming R/C Paramotor Content though! 😃👍🏼

@@HappyRCFlyer You have to hold the lines up above the prop centerline. I do so with plastic clips affixed to the cage. Otherwise, the wing acts like an anchor, as you noted. 2 person flight is only legal for training purposes with an exemption certificate, on a paramotor. Powered parachutes can do it because they are able to get sport pilots license for those.

Hey, Always good to hear from you, 😃 and thanks for the kind words! 👍🏼 May the Lord bless you as well, Brother! 🙏🏻

Hey, Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment! 👍🏼 I'm not sure I understand your comment though? Are you sharing disappointment in the fact that it's a cheap 2-in-1 RX/ESC? 🤔 I know I was pretty disappointed to see this. 😔

@@HappyRCFlyer spelling mistake, bud

@@GBR4ME 👍🏼 Hey, no worries!

@@Isleofwightr.c-ec2ef Agreed, I just don't see $450 worth of parts or build quality. 🤔

on sale for $350 now, worth it?

@mattbleuer5011 Great Question! 👍🏼 While I'm glad to see the price dip $100 off for the Labor Day Sale... I still feel it's over priced and overrated for what it is.😒 I hope you'll consider Subscribing if you haven't already done so...😁 There is another, much cheaper alternative to the ProBoat Tug that I am currently testing and will be posting a Review video on in the near future! 😃👍🏼

Hey thanks! 👍🏼 Some ordered parts have arrived and working on some out of box ideas for this one! 😃

@waltjoynes8961 Hey, thanks for your kind words and support! 😃 👍🏼 Unfortunately it's becoming more and more obvious to us Hobbiest, that the "Sponsored Voices" 🤥 are not telling us the whole truth on these expensive toys.🤨 I believe that kind of stuff comes full circle to bite those companies. 😵‍💫 It's a sad business strategy and ends up hurting the hobby and those in the hobby and ultimately the downfall of manufacturers in the end. 😔😏

Hey Thank You! 😃 It's lots of fun at night! Definitely recommend getting comfortable in daylight first but night flying Paramotors are a very unique experience! 😯 You will love it! 👍🏼 More videos incoming... on the V1 and V2! 😃

Wait for honest reviews, a lot of influencers did advertise the V1 although it's never been a great product.

@StereodreieckRC ; I agree that its vital to either not pay ang attention to what "Influencers" say about the newest items that they themselves get sent to them for free... or just watch their videos if you only want to see what it looks like.🙄 Sadly most have a very biased perspective on things and never enough time or experience with the item to actually give much input on how it flies or how it holds up under normal consumer use. 😢 I'm sorry to hear you may have had a bad experience.😕 I would be happy to help you sort through some of the issues and give you a fighting chance at Paramotor Success! 🙂 If you are referring to this one (blue/white) as the V1, my personal experience has been great! I have more than one and love them, and a number of friends that get together and fly them! What a blast! I also have the newest v2 (green/white) as well as some friends. No one sent them for free, we all had to buy then at normal price. But I would say, a persons Paramotor experience will most likely be due to one of two things. 1-Good Weather Conditions, 2-Proper Setup/Turning of the strings, If you had a bad experience, feel free share what you didn't like about it or what went wrong. It can helps us all sort through issues and learn/Grow together and help each other! That's the cool part about the RC Community! 😃👍🏼

@@HappyRCFlyer @HappyRCFlyer I have flown the HK V1 a couple times, our airfield is pretty favorable for planes (huge and very lightly sloping) but the V1 was never fun; the lines are super-stretchy and thick (a lot of drag), the wrong length, resulting in wingtips collapsing, sometimes at takeoff and when spiraling down (induced by the pilot), the foil can not recover from a full stall. Unfurtanely no Videoproof. Note: I have been an RC Pilot for over 10 years (my YT channel proves it) and have flown the Paramotor very little compared to other planes. The one time I had a good with the Paramotor (at least initially) was when it caught a thermal and induced a down spiral (it did not help), then a full stall (did not recover as a good foil should ) and crashed into a tree from 150metres, all in all, the only airplane ever I don't like and I do not recommend. On a positive note, the HK Cart/Gondoola is great. Last year I bought a Hacker Cloud 1.5 (which is a rebranded Paramotor, also available on Aliexpress). I love to fly this thing; better penetration, no tip stall, and recovers easily from a Fullstall, easy to launch, even flew it in the dark which is even more fun. You can find Videos about both Paramotors on my channel: H-King (PNF) High Performance Paramotor 2400mm (94") and Paramotor Hacker Cloud 1.5 Nachtflug I would not buy a Singlesking again, they are not versatile enough, unfortunately, Hybrid and Doubleskins are way more expensive.

Thanks for your kind words! Yes, it's a very relaxing aircraft! Slow, not too loud.. and beautiful to watch in the sky! 👍🏼

@zuidkb7312 Hey, Great question! 👍🏼 It's a yes and no answer! I hope you'll consider Subscribing if you haven't already! 😃 -On Takeoff- It's important to give it a good hand lunch, because if it doesn't have enough air speed on takeoff, it can/will roll &/or pitch bad and without the air-speed SAFE can offer no help! -In Normal Flight- When the plane is flying at speed I don't notice much torque because SAFE keeps it level with the horizon. I think the big issue with Torque Roll or Torque Turn is mostly on takeoffs/hand launch. Same with the V1200. *Future Videos coming on the V1200 as well.* 🙂 Anyways, hope that makes sense?

@@HappyRCFlyer Thanks for taking the time to give a very detailed answer! Subscribed without a doubt, well deserved. This gives me alot more info to decide on whether this might be my next purchase. Thanks!

@zuidkb7312 Thanks for the Sub and kind words! Welcome to the team! I will say that I've always been happy with my v900! 👍🏼 Although I have another plane that I like as well which is a running competitor to the v900 and I hope to do a video on it soon after a couple more mods. 🤔 So if you are on the fence about the v900.. this second plane might be an option to consider as well! 😁 (Ps, RC is like a shoe shop, just when you decide what you want... than you see more options! Lol)😄

@@HappyRCFlyer Well now you have me interested. I need to know what the other plane is haha. And yeah, I have more planes than shoes haha.

Thanks, glad you found it helpful!👍🏼 Plans to post more videos of setup and flight controller configurations, in the future!😃 So stay tuned for more on this and other helis! 👍🏼
