Just the last magic flight of 3 from that day. No fancy tests. Just enjoying myself in this rainbow sky. If you like it watch. If you only keen to see more EPPG tests you can skip this one. ☺️
they are and you know it bill! 😁its been 4 months since i saw a video from your flight. you ok mate? flying this thing is fantastic. i will never go back to gasoline. also if you fly the X4 again please do make a low RPM pass over somebody with a cam. i am very curious what it sounds like if you just add like 10% throttle. its a bag full angry hornets on full power we know it but whats it like on lower levels? looking forward to see you fly again
@@cloudpandarism2627 Panda, I've put 700 miles on my Talaria MX4 "R" since the first of August in the Arkansas River Valley in the heart of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. (Home of the 14ers.) Single track riding the electric dirt bike(s) ....I have 2.....is a BLAST....but not as much fun as my electric paramotors at the beach...not as safe either!🤣. I did take the bikes with my flight instructor up Mt. Antero. No problem for those bikes. Bill Here's a video from my first flight here last year. Takeoff with a single skin Grasshopper in sport mode. The air is SO thin in the summer. Landings are the worst....therefore I switched to electric dirt bikes in the Rockies. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1FrcjHtbsiQ.htmlsi=eh9zMa6Haz4HtKMB
Panda, oh, sorry for the confusion!! I do have an X4 paramotor too. I will be flying it at the beach in a couple of weeks. I'll try to post a really wonky landing I had in unusual windy conditions back in July. RipMan has the takeoff video...which was fine, but the rotor during the landing was a challenge...and I have that video. RipMan doesn't like my "angry bees"! 🤣🤣I love them!😁 Bill
Love the sky and the prop sound especialy at very low rpm 😮 the sky looks like you're a spaceship heading towards interstelar dust. The head cam is the action 4 right? Love the sound of it.
cheers buddy. yes thats the A4 i showed you last time with the wind blocker on. works really well to catch sound from prop. if you wanna see a more detailed shot just from the action 4 please check this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EkmoC06BDh0.html. same beach. different time. used the build in stabilization. you set it to 4k qualy in youtube to see best results. for the prop sound: yes its my absolute favorite. sometimes while sinking i use like 5% throttle just to enjoy the deep rumble sound the motor makes. i hope we will see flights from you as well! go get that cam! 😄
yeah but you are walking up hours to get into thermals and you are tired as fark before you even fly while i go up and simply cut the motor to be silent. greetings from an EPPG pilot 😘😋
@@jonathansummerfield8390 just kidding. of course paragliding is still king in this sport. but there are very few sides here we can fly from and i cant get a fitting harness as well. so for me electric is the next best thing. alot less noisy than paramotor but you right. of course its not silent to spin a massive prop around 😇🤙🏼 cheers brother
in my opinion they are made to impale paramotor pilots! 🤪but fisherman say they put nets in between them to catch fish as tides rise or sink. i also dont like them but cutting them off simply results in more poles up next time i go there. dont ask me how i know. 😅
thank bro. no my brakes are pretty high because i got a high hang point harness for noobs. if i just take them in my hands and move down some cm they are already grabbing the edges and i make a turn. do i need to shorten them anyway? and i got another question: whats going on with these metal half moon shaped things? tip steering? how does it work. a bit of advice here please 😄🙏🙌
@@cloudpandarism2627 I believe it's recommended to shorten the brakes 2-3" according to aviator PPG which even has a video on it for the Spyder 3. When I demo the same wing with my SP 140 I definitely needed to shorten the brake lines if I was going to keep the wing. The landing speed in nil wind was fast and I could have used the shorter brake lines to help with slowing down. The halfmoon rings are for tip steering control which is used while trimmed out or in full reflex with speed bar and or both. You would stow your brakes, go on full trims out and use the tip steering for control.
@@madsloper ah nice thanks i will check the video from aviator to see when i need shorten them. right now they are very high up and its almost uncomfortable to hold my arms up that high just to have brakes in my hand without any input. about tip steering: since i will NEVER ever trim this wing out because i want go as slow as possible. probably looking into a way to make it impossible trimming out to full speed and only able to trim to the red line for nil wind launches. can i use tip steering all the time even trimmed in just for better efficiency? flying electric each time i pull a brake to turn cost me extra power from battery. would be nice to steer without loosing power.
Yes, you can use the Tip steering anytime but it's actually less efficient of a turn than with your main brake cause it's more dynamic. @@cloudpandarism2627
more violent than my moster185 gasoline engine. did i forget typing that? 😳 if yes sorry about the confusion. i had 2 different gasoline engines before. moster185 my20 and a black devil 172. both with 130cm props. climb rate was average with me as 135kg pilot. the electric ppg feels so much more powerful and there is almost no delay from hitting throttle until i start climbing while the gasoline engines needed a second from full throttle to get up into higher rpm and start climbing.
