Miniplane Long Range Paramotor featuring the reliable Top 80 with 140cm Prop 18L

Description: Miniplane Long Range Paramotor Miniplane Long Range Paramotor with a 140cm Propeller & 18L Tank!The MINIPLANE Long Range Paramotor has raised the bar for efficiency and performance in the 80cc engine category!QUIETERThe new wider propeller is made possible by a new Gearbox with a reduction ratio that spins the wide prop at a slower RPM while still allowing the engine to rev to the optimal RPM.MORE EFFICIENTUsing the same 80cc Top 80 Engine, this new paramotor continues the tradition of efficiency and low fuel consumption that Miniplane has always been known for.BETTER PERFORMANCEThe improved gearing and specially designed propeller makes pilots smile when they feel the improved performance and quiet operation of this new machine.RIGID CAGEThe new fully rigid cage with aerfoil shaped outer ring gives the pilot confidence without adding undue weight to the paramotor.RELIABLEMiniplane Paramotor has always been known for the incredible reliability of it's Top 80 engine. It gained the highest rating of any paramotor in a survey done in 2011 (Paramotor Survey LINK). Plus, the parts support from Miniplane-USA gives American pilots the confidence to have access to any part needed to make a repair quickly.SIZEMiniplane's Long Range 140 Paramotor is the same size as the original Miniplane Flex cage and the LR 150 is slightly larger, but they are a world of difference! The gearbox/propeller combo on each size offers incredible thrust, sound and efficiency advantages over the original Flex Cage design that needs to be experienced to fully appreciate the benefits.NEW AND IMPROVEDThere are also many other improvements to the harness, fuel delivery, priming and so much more that you need to see to believe.LONG RANGENow, with the option of an 18L Fuel Tank, your Miniplane has the capacity for MASSIVE Long Range explorations in the air! Even the regular tank provides many hours of flight time, more than enough for the average pilot to enjoy the magic of personal flight. Performance like Never Before!In general, every aspect of performance is improved. There is better efficiency of the propeller (higher aspect ratio) so more thrust is obtained with less energy consumption. A larger propeller needs adequate protection that is not offered by Miniplane's traditional flexible fiberglass ring cage.The solution for propeller protection is Miniplane's new cage built with a high strength aluminum drop-shaped aerofoil profile.The new reduction ratio makes the propeller turn more slowly. Thanks to this increased efficiency, during horizontal flight the noise is greatly reduced making the flight more relaxing for the pilot with less noise disturbance for those who are watching from the ground.The new lightweight composite Helix prop becomes a necessary and excellent choice for this paramotor, because it is impossible to achieve the same performance with a large wooden propeller.A further advantage is that the profile used for this carbon fiber propeller keeps performance high even as air density decreases, as it maintains thrust as the height increases. While the Static thrust is increased a bit, the real benefit is the climb rate especially at altitude. Most of this extra performance comes from the longer and wider propeller catching more air outside the disturbed airflow of the pilot.For this 150cm version the RPM of the propeller is drastically reduced, only 2200 (17/75 Standard Gearbox) RPM at maximum throttle. The result is a smoother, quieter, more efficient flight, not to mention the benefits of a rigid airfoil style cage The MINIPLANE Long Range Paramotor has been designed based on the extensive experience acquired by the company Per Il Volo over the last 30 years as a paramotor manufacturer. Fly High, Fly Far!The Miniplane Long Range project is based on the innovative Rigid 150 Paramotor made by Per Il Volo.Now, our ability to fly higher and farther is made possible with a bigger prop turning more slowly, which offers good thrust with lower noise.The bigger 140 prop is made possible by a new gearbox and reduction ratio that allows the Top 80 engine to use a much longer and wider propeller than ever before while still staying within the necessary RPM range of the engine.This listing comes with the Long Range 18L fuel tank for extended flights. Please note: This listing is for the Miniplane Long Range 18L Paramotor only - no glider or helmet is included. The Paramotor does include the specially designed Helix 140cm Propeller, Harness and Throttle. This listing is for Certified Paramotor pilots only, you must be able to confirm this and verify with references prior to purchasing this item or confirm that you are engaged in training with a certified Instructor. DISCLAIMER: Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this disclaimer before flying an ultralight aircraft. Paramotors, Powered Paragliders, PPG, PPG Trikes, Hang Glider Trikes, Weight shift Control Trikes - any of these small aircraft that weight less than 254 pounds and have a tank less than 5 gallons are considered Ultralights. These are single-place (solo) flying machines for sport aviation only during daylight hours. Ultralight flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self discipline. It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in it safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. Ultralight aircraft flying is an inherently dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. Ultralights are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of ultralight flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this activity. Safe operation of any ultralight aircraft requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a Novice Solo Pilot or in some cases a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the ultralight. In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control an ultralight aircraft, and may cause it to crash. Never take anything for granted in aviation. If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out immediately. By purchasing this item, you assume sole responsibility for your safety and hold harmless the retailer and manufacturer for injury or death resulting from your use of this item.
