    Wow from what you've told me anything above 10 knots is a nightmare in a Paramotor but you handled it all easily. Great video Mark.

    The worst part is taking off and landing. It can also get a bit disconcerting when you are pointing north but flying 5 knots southwards. The battle was worth it, glad you enjoyed!

    It's great to see just how stable these newer generation wings are in windy conditions

    Out of the three wings I have, this is the most unstable, but still not bad at all. My Nuc XX is great, but the Universal 1.1 is rock steady.

    Great video, Mark! Idk what happened on my takeoff either, it just didn't lift! 😅 I always check max rpm before takeoff and it was okay, so my best guess is sinking air or a tail gust... Great adventure and great video! 🪂🪂🪂

    Hi there Mark, great video, its interesting flying in high winds! Not always nice and not my favourite! I think Mike O'Hara got our fastest recorded ground speed last year along the Jurrasic Coast. Still swearing by my Mostar, but then again, I'm fatter than you! Another great vid mate.

    Yeah not my favourite either, but I relished the challenge to try and get to the fly-in! What was Mike's ground speed?

    Mike got up to 64mph on his Hadron, but we all flew in some winds that were 'sporting'....@@markallisonparamotor

    I use the Met Office Balloon forecast from the aviation briefing service. You need to create a free account.
