Zeemax 0 #1 May 8, 2005 read down until you get to this bit... (or just read this bit..) he is also developing a remote-controlled Parajet, which will allow skydivers to dive out of a para-motor, leave it flying by itself and then remote control it back to the ground.

bobsled92 0 #2 May 8, 2005 It comes across as a good design (comparing the ones I know of) We have a student at our DZ that flies a Parafoil-fan setup. He's a pilot and owns a very nice plane as well. He said zero wind days play hell on you for take off. RUnning with the engine is quite the feat._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skydiver30960 0 #3 May 8, 2005 MY favorite part is: "and when THAT project is finished, Cardoso wants to build a flying car." Yep, there you go. Setting reasonable, attainable steps in one's career. STEP 1: strap lawn mower to one's back with a 'gliding canopy. STEP 2: build flying car. Elvisio "sounds like my future calling" Rodriguez Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
