You need a larger motor or paraglider; either that or use full power on takeoff in the next video. I want to build one of these myself. How much hp does you motor produce? What kind of battery are you using? What paraglider are you using?

This is the future of personal aviation. I can't wait for batteries to get lighter. Mine is going to have plenty of power to take off with. I like the idea of having two small motors turning counter-rotating propellers in an oval shaped propeller guard.

[Ebdan88]

Very Interesting, and Very, very Frustrating, because i just was hoping to see what kind of motor you are using, and i didnt get the chance to do so :-(, But anyway, Thank's for sharing. I am very new in this, and i have just ordered my Parashute. I dont have that much money to use on a motor, that is why i am going for El. Ride, and i am Building my own Brushless motor. The magnets will soon Arrive from Germany and i will post a video up...GOOD LUCK :-)

A clearer audio would be good. Excellent vid, hope to see better endurance sometime. Need more thrust to get my fat arse off the deck...

Good fortune, Neil!

looks to complicated i'd stick to reality in my opinion

anyway nice video

Any technical info...(weight, duration of battery charge, thrust, etc...)?

Seems a tad weak in terms of thrust but i understand that power will come with time. What Neil has done is truely admirable and if his company gets up and running I am sure he will get customers both from the ppg and pg side of the spectrum...just hope its affordable! ;P
