    Neat. I fly a paramotor, and we steer by pulling lines that pull the tips of the wings down. It might handle a bit better if you added brake lines.

    Great Job! Excellent keeping things simple. Perhaps a little more weight…try adding an action figure!

    This really is a resounding success tho, getting an RC Paramotor to fly is one hell of a challenge, even if you were to buy one at Hobbyking you would still have trouble flying it haha

      Thank you!
      I agree, and this diy version is like 10% of the cost! I’m gonna keep improving the design (if I can) and make a build video because there aren’t any out there!

    Great job, try more weight and less power.

    Hmm, it really doesn't wanna go forward. That wing surely is causing a lot of drag. Maybe you could try easing off the throttle a bit so it doesn't pitch up so much.

    • @CaptainJohn
      @CaptainJohn  3 роки тому +1

      When I ease of it starts to decent, its a weird balance that I just have to figure out. I’m still working on it

    its the wings angle of attack that is causing the issue

      Bought it on Amazon, just a stunt kite

    Great, think the wing is too much at the back, out of trim, maybe try to shorten the A(front lines), by tying some knots, it is also not a destructive way

    Hello John,
    Can you give a draw of the gondola please ?
    Can we know the size of the propeller, of the engine and brushless controller?
    Thank you very much .

      here is all the electronics I used for this...
      1x 9g Micro Servo
      DX2205 2300KV Motor
      6x4.5 Propeller
      Flite Test 25 Amp ESC
      3s 850mah battery with XT60
      AR620 Receiver
      I don't have any drawing of this craft, basically designed it by just guessing and cutting...

      Agreed!
      The parachute is a kite, so it’s kinda a drag chute
