Slightly on, slightly off topic video

[powerlord]

I fly paramotors as well as quads. And last weekend, we had a great weekend of flying in Cambridgeshire.

I not only took lots of video of me flying my paramotor, and my mates flying theirs, but also took lots of video with my DJI and new brushless gimbal of take offs, setups, and even some chasing paramotors.

I';ve edited the quad footage into the video as a whole (hence on and off topic).

However, thought some of you might like it:

I started doing my training for Paramotoring a few years back.. but never completed it.. guy at work was into it in a big way.. Andy Phillips..
Would still love to complete it and get a setup.. but no time these days.. and Mrs wasn';t that keen on me doing it..
Site where I FPV sometimes has a few guys who appear from time to time.. must ask them next time if they would allow me to film them..

I know andy. Good guy.

Don';t be put off. There are some crappy instructors out there which doesn';t help.

forking gr8 video  and you cant be to far from me got room for a passenger on there  and roughly how much douse it cost to get in the air ?

[powerlord]

Lots of folk do do tandems actually - not me though.

New: Paramotor is about 5k, wing about 3k.

Good second hand kit will get you in the air for 3k.

Allow about 1k for training.
