Low wind a problem I do not suffer from Connecticut. I suffer from Highway and lack of habitat. Thank God for that airport in Ellington that allows me to fly. Also personal preference I like the V layout it's where you shape your wing like a V it's also called the arrowhead it just makes for a nice inflation.
Dude! Posting the wind socks is so key! Well played sir. Winds for these these have such a profound affect. The attention to detail until the very end is what should be recommended to folks wanting to get into this hobby. Total like from me sir.
Thank you Kyle! Great tips! As a newbie myself, what you showed is really gonna help me. I did learn most of this during my training, but as many have said...the same information can click in your mind differently to/from different people. You said things that really clicked in my mind. Especially the bonus flare timing! I would love to share this once you make it public! Awesome video, man!
Great video to refer back to after the training i went through! I had a blast bro and you are truly bad ass at training someone for this new adventure/lifestyle. I finally get to do something i've wanted to do my whole life!!!
You "look around to check the area?" In my area you wouldn't see anything but trees, all of whom I am intimately aquainted with. You'd say "You actually fly out of here?" I'd reply "No, I actually crash & bleed out of here!" I need to send you a picture. My Solo 210 is held together with tie wrap, duct /tape. Bent cage bars are bent back. Even the frame is bent. J.B. Weld covers 50% of it. You think I'm kidding? How I'm still alive is what's amazing.
Also a good idea to have an alternate way of killing the engine just in case the usual method fails. A run away engine is super scary and extremely dangerous. Good work Kyle!
Wonderful video, this type of thing helps lessen frustration because there is a lot to it, information overload abounds and a picture is worth a thousand words.
Kyle, thank you! It was a bunch of great reminders. You always deliver quality! Can’t wait to meet you some day. I’m hoping to go to the North Carolina fly in here in a couple weeks.
Great video. Your instructions were clear and patient. Only one thought. I don’t recall u saying to check your trim tabs during the wing Pre check. Good routines will help one Remember the steps.
Great video well presented Neuby exelant tuition Following your videos with a few years Keep up the great work from Sean and friends in the Burren west of Ireland
Always love your vids. Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to share and help those of us still learning the basics. I just love your exuberance and dedication to the sport.
Good video for a green horn like myself to watch prior to getting back in touch with Paracrac. Can't wait for some continuing education in Kyle town hopefully this year.
Excellent video! I have been reading through the Paramotor bible and have struggled making sense of forward launches. Pictures and words are tough to visualize sometimes but your video makes it perfectly clear. BTW, I am not a pilot yet, but I aspire to be one. I only have a kiting wing and have put it in the air a dozen times or so. Kicking around the idea of coming down to you for training.
Sitting here in UK wanting to fly but weather not good , am in training up to 7 flights now absolutely loving it, could you explain different torque compensation devices in future vid ?
Dear Kyle, I genuinely learned a great deal of useful information. Thanks! Your admirer, Ward. P.S. The video must be mirrored, your throttle appears to be in the wrong hand. 🤣🪂🤣
Thank You! it helped a lot, keep making, sharing and teaching. How do you decide when to begin flaring? 3-4 feet, how do you estimate this when coming down, i end up flaring too soon.
Wait, eyes forward, feel for the ground with foot, while gentle even hand pressure on toggles. When you feel the ground bleed off the speed. You must touch the ground with speed.
another X-C-LENT VID Mate :-) I gotta watch this over and over, and prob. over again... to improve my moves,. Do you sell this on DVD... ;-) You orta! Thanks again from the 'windy' UK.
love this one Kyle'O! You're such a great teacher and you're so patient with the students and even the newbies as they hone their skills. I'm looking forward to finishing up the last part of your class soon
