Powered Parachute

I fly a Pegasus and when I first seen your video I though it was my plane. Plane is black but I have the EXACT same color chute down to every single cell.

@sharpcf73 Its a great chute!

watching this, I have to wonder if a modern car would be more energy efficient using a motor and a prop to push air, rather than a drive shaft that puts power in to wheels on the ground....

i doubt it, its basically an aeronautically rated snowmobile engine attached to a propeller. mine gets about 2 hrs of flight on an appx. 8 gallon tank going about 30-35 mph with zero winds... are there ways to increase its efficiency? with out a doubt. definitely possible, just not too plausible or convincing to me. i like how you think though!!

Thats pretty awesome!

I was wondering...Ever crashed into anything with this? Cause I know it all depends on how fast you were going, but it looks like it would REALLY hurt if you smacked against one of the houses. Same goes for the trees. XD

[lukebrwntube]

well, i went into a corn field before and also had a small crash with some trees a while back.

[lukebrwntube]

i dont know. depends on how much fuel you have and you might nee pontoons.

[planeguy3223]
