| imasuper0308 ::: Favorites 2007-11-23 11:21:11 That oscillation is not normal for a first flight. It means you have not been taught how to fly, only how to launch. You are not actually flying the glider, you are just a passenger. I would recommend you get with an instructor that will teach you how to fly instead of just how to launch. You probably didn't have a reserve either... Hmm... __________________________________________________ | |

If you wanted to know, its the belt, and you can tighten it by taking your prop off and loosening the little bolt above and behind the top pulley, then tightening the hex shaped hole behind the pulley.

I'm impressed with your instructor in Part 1! On the front of the cart while you taxi? Being a "super" pilot is 10% skill/90% judgment. Oscillate into the ground and you'll bust up your equipment; buzz a cruise ship or a busy highway and you'll kill the whole sport. What Dell needs is two reserve chutes, one for his mouth and one for his ego. Hmm... __________________________________________________ | |
| Airparamo ::: Favorites 2007-11-26 02:13:32 As an experienced PPG instructor (including the one in this video), teaching over 250 people to fly PPG's, I find that oscillations are very normal for the first few flights under a paraglider. A competent instructor talking to the student on a radio can ease a student through this, but it usually takes a few flights for a student to get the feel of active piloting the paraglider. __________________________________________________ | |
