Super sick idea, 2-cylnder and 4-cylinder 2-stroke paramotor engine (DLE 170, DLE 222), that is cool in itself. As basic physics already figured, a small prop with the same exact engine produces Significantly less thrust. If I knew there were buyers I'd pursue a belt reduction drive project to add to a DLE engine (I'm an engineer trying to go my own way), however the price point would have to be $800-$1200. Under the business / marketing context: that's a problem, the gear box costs as much or more than the engine itself. This has a similar feeling to the Blackhawk honda clone engine belt drive kit that is now defunct, why is it defunct with people constantly wanting to make a honda clone paramotor engine? Here is a thought experiment: you'd have to spend $1500 to make 15 hp+ out of a predator 212, along with a $1000 belt reduction system...may as well get an Atom 80 at this point to get the same thrust for less weight. Also, in no way would I take responsibility or liability for chinese engines, can you imagine the support and warranty claims of any US based company that starts selling DLE engines for paramotors.
Thanks for the fast-motion "breakdown" footage at the end. I've been wondering how small these breakdown. It looks like it would fit in a small suitcase for air travel. Thoughts?
What kinda TBO is on the engine? Time before overhaul.. some could be disposable.. I'm really considering to sell the ultralights, and just get new gear, wing an motor, plus some training.

Definitely believe it would fit in a small case. I think it might fit in my Nobile Kiteboard check baggage.
Where to get this ✍️

你好！我是这个座带的生产厂家，很希望同你沟通座带使用情况，我们有你需要的全套装备，包括伞头，期待你的回复，谢谢。
how much was it
The paramotor with harness, engine and prop was $2850 US.
What kinda TBO is on the engine? Time before overhaul.. some could be disposable.. I'm really considering to sell the ultralights, and just get new gear, wing an motor, plus some training.
