SCOUT Zero - first thermals - It's not a paramotor it's a Thermal machine - ARTIK6 

I have spent quite a few hours before, trying to fly thermals with a paramotor.
But i always ended up frustrated due to the stiff and awkward flying position.
It was uncomfortable, difficult and insensible.
The ScoutZero, on the other hand, behaves very nicely and has a very similar handling to a conventional paragliding harness.
It is comfortable enough for long flights and when flying for hours you truly forget there is still a motor attached to it.
The first flight I flew about 1 hour in nice calm thermal conditions before i landed for lunch,
15min later I was back into the action (that’s just awesome 😊)
Nice cloud streets made it easy to make transitions and I flew towards France.
Once there I saw that the paragliding pilots at the local paragliding take off were having difficulties climbing out and were pretty frustrated when they saw me flying over at 2000m altitude beneath the clouds.
Localpilot#22 =” he flew!!! while we sat here waiting like fools!! ”
After 3hrs of flying I finally landed back next to the car, no long retrieve for me this time.
Just enjoying the sunset with a beer, reminiscing about my flight.
Thank you, SCOUT for designing such a beautiful piece of equipment,
it’s revolutionary and a great addition to the sport.
And I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute.
