Test flying my homemade electric paramotor that uses 12 Freefly Alta motors. Thanks to Freefly Systems for letting me use their CNC router and cosmetically defective Alta motors.
If anyone is selling a used paramotor wing let me know.

It’s not the wing it’s your launch technique. Watch my forward launch or reverse launch videos. http://Www.flightjunkies.com
A gas Motors only 5 lbs heavier
Pick a day with a little bit of Breeze and do a reverse launch instead of a forward and you won’t have to worry about lines getting snagged on that cage.
Its SO LOUD!
You might like to test it on the ground at full power, until your batteries are flat, to make sure that the system can handle the load, plus you then know how long you have. Also I suggest make the edges of your frame so that lines cannot get caught. One way to do this, is to cut a bit of alkathene pipe long wise, then slip over the frame.
most inefficient thing I’ve ever seen lets use 30 motors that loose 15 20 percent due to heat instead of 1 motor 1 esc
pulling to many amps use smaller props u got to bench test this shit man can u throw your money away in my pocket next time
scrap the project….your going to end up killing yerself for gods sake.you have to be careful and think ahead…foam and tape arent going to cut it….. you are not a model airplane.
Dude needs to lift some weights…….
just putting a smaller fuel tank and multiple large rc petrol motors or maybe just a normal small motor would be fly for longer and be the same weight
cool, but please dont kill urself by letting the props cut the lines :O
Might be better looking at running lower KV motors and a 12s battery setup, as well as still upping the wire gauge.
Finally, someone who has gotten away from conventional single engine rationale! Nice job. How did you figure out how many and how large of motors to use? Do you know how much thrust you are getting from each motor? Again, it is a pleasure seeing someone thinking outside of the ‘traditional’ methods.
Great Job!! This said I think this set up would be more appropriate to power a descent as opposed to power you up from the ground, you will save battery life. Just a thought.
Congratulations on your fantastic learning experience. (>*
that’s what happened when you use fucking EC5 conectors…..and…go do something else…YOU FUCKING SUCK….
Why does this guy remind me of Napoleon Dynamite??? Cool attempt anyhoo.
Youre gonna need thicker wires
Este men está loco jajaja
wow
can someone please give this guys a proper wing already!?
Well done. Impressive engineering. Good luck with the project. Maybe getting some experience on a more conventional machine would be a good idea.
New challenge is made a paraglider of some kind material who transform sun heat in eletricity, so we can fly forever.
Because your not quickly changing the angle of the props whole flying, you might get a substantial thrust gain with a ducted system and in turn need less power.
your crazy yet inspiring !
I’d like to say play safe but your definately pushing those boundaries 🙂
How are you still alive?
Just use hotglue XD
For your wiring problem, just use 10 awg wire the entire way thru. That will definitely help with voltage and current flow. You cant be splitting your wires into that thin wire like that. Hope this helps! Mad props bro! Soo sick
Electric is the future of paramotoring! We need something refined like a DJI drone with a easily charged and swappable battery! Hope to build one myself someday if not available. Fun project to watch but a round cage would be much better! Have you flown gas motors before?
I can’t believe how much you’ve accomplished in your young life.
I recall the first video that I saw from your channel; You flew a homemade plane out of your bedroom window, FPV style.
You’re an amazing young man, with an amazing future ahead of you. Way to go!!
Really cool, I’m new to your channel and this seems like a really cool project. Hope u keep at it.
