http://www.u-turnusa.com World's first Paramotor twin engine trike. PPG pilot wanted the reliability of 2 engines on his powered paragliding trike. First flown at Bonneville Salt Flats paramotoring takes another step forward.

  • I would imagine that the second engine would be quite inefficient being so close inline behind the first.

  • @meggark That was actually a concern when designing it but it turns out that they work quite well that way and you have about double the thrust. You do lose a little bit but not very much.

  • what engine do you use? buy corsair engines man, best on the market, most reliable !

  • @jolicoq WHAT? Are you joking? Those engines have the same weight, way less power, a ton more vibration and noise, burn over double the gas and are nowhere near as reliable as the quality engines. The only reason people buy black devils is because they are cheap. Certainly not quality by any means.

  • If you put pontoons on it would it really matter? Last time I checked they dont make floating wings.

  • @Bobthepilotguy The K2 does actually float or you could use poles to hole it up.

  • Thumbs up for the Beatles!!!

  • Thumbs uo for Beatles!!!

  • @imasuper0308 Wow it actually floats? Never heard of that. Some good technology these days.

  • @Fishmonger1966 Yes that is possible but not really necessary as this aircraft can takeoff and land just about anywhere on land in a very very small area.
