Following on from the incredible success of the first H-King High-Performance Paramotor comes this V2. This version sports a new, much more efficient, stable, parafoil wing in a vibrant color scheme. This makes it much easier to launch and fly and adds loads more stability when flying than the previous version. It will even perform take-offs from the ground with assistance from a helper, and long, long, touch and goes are performed with ease. Another improvement is the lines that attach the gondola to the parafoil, these are stronger and much smoother, so they are less likely to bind to each other when launching. Next on the list of new features are clear servo arms for added realism, a super bright LED light bar, and a white prop. This light bar illuminates the underneath of the sail and reflects off the white prop allowing you to have even more fun with your paramotor by enabling you to carry on flying into the twilight zone.
These changes came about with the help of our community partner John, of JohnVHRC. John thoroughly tested the new wing and risers, giving us feedback, and invaluable assistance with the Paramotor V2 design. He also helped by making an unboxing and very detailed setup video, so be sure to check out his setup and flight videos under our "Videos" section above.
The V2 still retains many of the characteristics of the original version, including the ability to perform loops and rolls with ease after a little practice. The large area high performance 2400mm parafoil wing opens quickly for easy launching and due to its design it will retain its shape even in severe turbulence. The single-skin durable wing is made from 100% ripstop fabric and the new, stronger nylon chords are rigged and ready to attach to the durable aluminium gondola.
Just like the original version, there is a high level of prefabrication so assembly time is kept to a minimum, and as it is supplied in a Plug-N-Fly format all you will require to get flying is your transmitter, receiver, LiPo battery, and charger. The Paramotor V2 is fitted with a powerful 3530-1400KV brushless motor swinging a 10x4.7 propellor, has a 50A electronic speed controller with 5A BEC, and 2 powerful 15kg high torque metal geared servos. A 3S LiPo battery is recommended and it can vary in capacity to suit different flying conditions.
The recommended flying weight is 1.6~2.0kg, in light wind conditions it is best to put a lighter battery in to keep near the 1.6kg weight. In windy conditions, it is better to put a heavier battery in to fly around the 2kg mark. Ultra-long flights of 20~45mins can be achieved depending on the size of the battery used.
