A Brief Overview Of Paramotoring

Paramotoring can be explained as a relatively safe

, easy and extremely accessible powered aviation type. A powered paraglider i.e. the equipment used for paramotoring is usually extremely petite in size and fits easily even within the boot of small cars. Assembling the aircraft involves some simple steps that required only a few minutes to be completed. Powered paragliders come with ultralight aircraft-engines that look like backpacks; the technical term used for these engines is paramotor. The paramotors remain attached to standard glider wings. These are wings that can be flown from mountains and hills even without power (when flown without the motor, the act is called paragliding).

To fly a paramotor, you will require an area of the size of a standard soccer field. First, the pilot will need to enter the harness. The next step would be lifting the engine on his/her back. Now, after checking the gears carefully, the pilot should start the aircraft engine. Once the engine starts and the power is opened, the pilot becomes ready for taking off.

After taking off, you will keep on gaining height till the power is on. Your next job would be reducing the power once you reach the desired altitude. This will allow you to maintain level height. The next decision you will need to take is whether you will be flying on your local turf or go for a cross country flight. The average flying speed ranges between 40 and 55 kilometer/hour; the speed tends to vary based on the quality of wing you are using as well as the surrounding weather. On an average, with 10 liter fuel, you will be able to fly for as many as 3 hours. So, if the weather condition is favorable, you can easily attempt a flight of more than 100 kilometers. The flying time can be extended further by soaring and gliding using the lifts from air rising above the mountains (the term used for such lifts is ridge-lift) or from thermals. These techniques help in maintaining or gaining altitude without using any motor and allow you to conserve fuel and save money. Based on your requirements, you can switch the motor on and off during the flight. If the motor you are using quits in flight, you can use the wing that is basically a glider to gently float in the air and land safely. However, you will not face any such issue if you use high quality units like Parajet paramotor.
