Phillipe Lacours Great Job on a trike

Phillippe has done a similar trike to Richard's (below).  Again it looks great with a Parajet on the back.

Richarad Danby's Trike

An awesome effort from Richard, here are couple of pictures his new trike.

The Parajet Boat / Combine Harvester

In a battle to overcome pond weeds this cunning Scot's man has come up with an alternative use of the Parajet Paramotor.

This cunning device even cleans out the Queens pond at Balmoral.

Enter "Studash"

I asked Stu to give a brief discription of this cool looking device and this is what he says

Been flying for 3 years.  

2 years on the parajet.

I have a degree in electronic engineering, and photography as a hobby, so I wanted to build something for my parajet.

Basically the dash: 

-          Has CHT gauge for engine temperature

-          Voltage output showing it is charging, etc

-          Amp output on accessories current drawing

-          miniTAC showing engine revs

-          Outlet socket for my heated motorcycle gloves + one/off control

-          Hub for video and audio control. 

Basically my helmet plugs into the dash, and the dash plugs in to the lap dash. The lap dash houses instrumentation and solid state video recording. This is all powered from 12v +5v regulated power from the dash.

In addition, my helmet is fitted with a minature camera and microphone, plus a throat microphone (with a switch on the helmet to switch between mic and throat mic). This audio and video is fed through the dash. 

There is some electronics in the dash, which lets me switch between this video signal and up to 2 auxiliary video cameras which can be plugged directly into the dash (and fitted around the parajet frame with wide angle lenses). 

The selected video and audio is then fed into the lap dash and recorded onto the solid state HD recorder.

So basically in flight I can commentate on my flights clearly above the engine with the throat mic, and switch in flight between the 3 different cameras with buttons on the dash.Oh yeh, and it makes coffee.

Stu 

Might have made up the coffee bit.

 

Volution Compact - Brad Comyns

This is Brad and Marcelo over in California.

"This is us on Catalina island the trip was about 36 miles over the ocean from the mainland to the island."  

Brad says he had been flying for 6 months when this picture was taken.

Volution Macro - James De Penning

James, 26, is fairly new to the sport and is already fully commited to Paramotoring buy investing in a brand new Parajet Volution Macro. James, who is currently studying in London to become a Lawyer came across the sport though his old friend Alex Ledger, who runs www.skyschooluk.com

James was checking out Alex's pictures on facebook and figured he wanted a part of the action and so flew RyanAir to Spain for a weeks tuition to learn (on Parajet Paramotors) how to fly Paramotors. On his return from Spain he came straight to us at Parajet and bought one of our Volution paramotors. He proved his commitment to the sport by flying on the first day that he picked up his paramotor.

James comments, "I bought the Macro with a wooden prop to start with until I've built up some hours before investing in a 3 blade carbon fibre one."
