I review paramotor gliders for my 1st upgrade: Dudek Nucleon 4, Dudek Hadron 3 or BGD Luna 2 ?

I was lucky enough to be able to test fly three of the most amazing intermediate paramotor wings and in this video, I share my impressions and opinions on the BGD Luna 2, the Dudek Nucleon 4 and the Dudek Hadron 3. At the end, I reveal my choice to be my first intermediate glider.
First of all, I'd like to thank Chilly from Ufly4fun, Clive from CM paramotors, Lee and Blaise from Paramotorstuff for letting me test-fly their gliders.
I'm not an expert, and that's the whole point of this video.
My opinions would reflect those of someone looking to upgrade from their first glider, and I'm sure there are a lot of other pilots out there with the same doubts I had before I flew these, as well as manufacturers who would like an honest feedback from their target audience. I hope this helps!

Great honest genuine review Jeff!! 👏 They all looked like great wings. Going to be amazing going from that 29m down to a 23m. Lots of love from everyone at The Parahooners 😘

Thank you, my friends! 😉🪂

Great review Jef! I will probably be ready for another wing next year. Good insights, and great choice.

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

I’ll wait to see what wing you buy next 😉

I liked your review. I've had the H3 22 for over a year and love it. It took some getting used to but I think its a great overall wing for people that want to fly long distance. The landings are super easy with as much flare authority that it carries. Good luck wit the Luna..

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

It’s really an awesome wing! I feel like upgrading again already! 🤣🤣

@JoshuaMarshPPG Год назад

Thanks for the review. Just hit 100 flights, on a Top80 myself and about the same weight. Looking for my next wing now.

@MyNameIsJef Год назад

I love the Luna as my second wing! The Nuc 4 is also a really good option. I tried the Speedster 3, 24m later, but it's not as agile. Perhaps needed a smaller one, but all three are good options =)

@JoshuaMarshPPG Год назад

@@MyNameIsJef I've been looking at the sirrocco but want to demo some before I make a decision

@MyNameIsJef Год назад

Yeah, the Sirocco is the same design as the speedster, but with a lighter fabric, so it's easier to launch. It's also not as agile as the Luna 2 or the Nuc 4. Perhaps tying the tip steering it gets better, but the one I flew didn't have it.

@GolfFoxtrot22 2 года назад

Hi Jeff, you are starting to realise the difference in energy between different classification of wings. The Hadron XX is more advanced then the H3. The Hadron XX will lock into a spiral. The secret to landing performance wings is to keep the fast. Most performance wings are not landed fully trimmed in. Did you read the manuals before flying them as they have lots of details about the trim settings. I'm glad you enjoyed the wings. The Luna 2 is much more of a paraglider setup so you will get more feedback in the rougher air. Does the manual mention about active flying in rough air or trim out?

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

Hey Giles! Yeah, I’m sure they are different, but it wasn’t very noticeable in my short flights on them 😅 Indeed, I like to have extra energy on landing, I don’t think I’ve ever landed fully trimmed in 😅 I didn’t read the manuals, but I did ask the owners for basic/important instructions, since I knew the earlier Hadrons had a different speed system. The manual on the Luna tells you to trim out and pilot actively - you can use the brakes even on full bar, but it’s recommended to use tip steering. It’s very different from the Dudeks, which tell you to trim out and stow your brakes. I didn’t see you in the last PMC, did you not come this time?

@GolfFoxtrot22 2 года назад

@@MyNameIsJef I didn't come, I was working (flying) in Derbyshire. I'm glad you got to try the modern generation of wings.

@sexonlegs666 Год назад

Great video... I fly a nuke 4. Use standard landing tecnique, not sure why it needs to be more completed. I tried the Luna 2. Pulling in the trims is heavy, and not as agile. Luna 2 is nice colours and has a more emotive name :-)

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video =) 🪂

@matthewpesce765 2 года назад

Jef, nice review. I'm very interested in the N4. I currently fly the Sirocco 3 (22m) and Dudek Solo (21m). I am about 109KG all up. It would be interesting to see your impressions of a 20m N4. I have flown a 20m Luna 2. It was definitely a fast wing and I loved the colors. I also have an 80cc motor and did not like the slow climb rate and higher RPM of the Luna2. I also do not like the new Dudek colors....very boring. I am keeping my eye out for a slightly used N4 20m in the old color scheme...

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

I’d love to try one! Are you in the UK? Who’s your local Dudek dealer? I wouldn’t mind asking them to take it for a spin 😁😁

I tried many wings and so far the Luna 2 is my favorite as well. Excellent flight characteristics, tons of feedback, hauls ass, and had glare authority for days. It also looks gorgeous. Great choice! Loved the comparison.

@kevindonald7626 Год назад

Thanks Jeff good review, looking at all 3 of these wings. You happy with the Luna? Any regrets now u didn’t go for the Hadron?

@MyNameIsJef Год назад

Hi Kev! I really like the Luna, especially its easy launching characteristics, but the downside is that it's not very efficient - not compared to the Hadron. I believe a 22m Hadron would have served me well too, but I only tested the 20m 🥲

@LukasKuhelj 2 года назад

Great review! Better than most manufacturers "review" their gliders. Would have been perfect if you also tried the Ozone Speedster 3 for comparison!:D I am really curious how this wing performs in comparison to the wings you showed.

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

I can actually try one now that my friends have bought one 🤩 Good idea! 😉

@LukasKuhelj 2 года назад

@@MyNameIsJef would be really interesting for me to see. I fly an Ozone Roadster 3 right now - and I am wondering, what my next wing (Luna, Nuclean, Speedster or sth else) should be:)

I feel your pain I have a synthesis 1 29 meter. And I think anything will launch easier than the heavy oversized glider we currently have. I'm currently waiting on delivery of a solo 21

@MyNameIsJef 2 года назад

🥲 Very nice, man! The Solo is a nice option too! It’s a shame I couldn’t fly it, since Chilly only had the 18m at the time 😅 Dan Jones flew it and he said it was even more spicy than the 22m Nuc 4 😅

@andrearossi4150 Год назад

Im now in your condition, i ve been flying a very oversize school wing for one year with a top 80, and im going to buy a luna 2. But i prefere a different way of fly. Id like an agile wing to do some wingovers. do you think that hadron 3 will be better?

@MyNameIsJef Год назад

Hey! I'm really happy with the Luna 2 and doing wingovers and barrell rolls as well! And I haven't even tied 2D steering to it yet, so it's definitely agile enough, and a great wing to learn on. The Hadron being more advanced, is probably not the best platform to start learning, but if you already know how to do a little bit of acro, you'll be fine on either 😉
