    I love the idea, but launching it (take off) seems very complicated. Please do a "how to" video on that.

    thanks for the honest review, and congrats on getting it in the air! I've been toying with getting one of these, especially for the night flying - they just look so cool. Plus the compact storage.
    Which one is this?

      I’ll find a link for it and get back to you, I think there maybe a slightly better option than this so I’ll check that out 👍

    Once you get the technique down pat Dave you might want to get a full-sized one like Alishanmao and try that? 😜😱
    Should be ideal in the Emerald Isle with all those bogs around for soft landings! 😉🤣🤣

    Hey mate, since you have succesfully flown an RC Paraglider maybe you can help me :D
    I just bought one but its extremely unstable in the air, a slight breeze or movement on the sticks and it crashes (the glider folds, like some kind of stall). Do you have any idea what i am doing wrong? Break lines too short maybe? And how do you control flying up and down with a Paramotor? Just with throttle?

    • @rcpilots1291
      @rcpilots1291  7 місяців тому +1

      Hey buddy, sorry to hear about your hard time , they really do have a steep learning curve. I’m guessing that if your kite is unstable in the air it maybe a centre of gravity issue. Check your instructions again , or else just try moving battery back and forth. Also depending on the size of your kite they are very very heavily affected by winds or even light breezes- it really needs to be almost zero wind. I’ll be making a ‘how to’ video soon for fellow novice pilots - good luck 🤞

      @@rcpilots1291 I got my first sucessfull flight today, and very stable! :D
      I found the problem... the break lines were to short, so whenever i tried to make a turn the wing on that side already stalled and I crashed. Now everything works fine and its a nice, gentle evening flyer :)

      I got mine from hoobyking (paramotor V2) and if you follow the official video: it's just like that and even better :-) It's slow, it's easy and it's flying brilliant if you are VERY careful with the gas... I HAD TO fly every evening since buying it when conditions were well. - And buy a second battery :-).
      What I found by youtube about launch: direction to wind, little gas, a little jerk open the sail, then watch your hand being straight pulling it in a smooth movement streight over your head, release it only if the direction is ok, give a little bit of power and wait until about 10 seconds if possible before you do anything else - and almost every launch will be successful (took me about 30 failures to find this out :-)
