Minor problems are to be expected. Looks like a successful splash to me. Great looking boat congratulations.

I understand powered paragliders, I've do that too, but that last video has no wheels? The first video you posted had an airframe with wheels mounted to it, and seems to have an engine mounted on the airframe, not on a back pack :doh: Thats right. I used the same motor for both types of flying. Tak...

To foot launch you take the motor off the quad and put it on your back like a back pack. The motor w/2gal of 2cycle 100LL weighed about 56lbs.

These powered parachutes are a hoot. I used...

Congratulations on the splash Frazoo. She is a fine looking boat.

Take your time and read the build notes and ask any questions you have on here. I guarantee it will be the best boat you have e...

Nice looking mess there Wej. I loves me some stone crab claws Bob I didn't know they were this far north I thought they were a Fla. species.

I do not think it can be scaled up anymore. There is the PH22 if you want a larger phantom.
