    Great sound! How's the SP140 are you enjoying it? Do you have the one hour batt or half hour one?

    I think it's absolutely awesome. A game changer! I have the big battery which gives me 40-50 minutes of flying.

    @@PontusEgnell That's all I needed to hear. Thanks! Keeps me going with my eppg project. Did you manage to balance 10-12 degrees back as by the book? Because you don't seem to be a heavy pilot. I'm only 68kg and planing to use a half hour batt. Does the SP140 come with a manual or some papers?

    @@Seneslau07 I think I managed to get it quite well balanced. My naked weight is a little over 80 kg. There's no way I could measure the hang angle exactly because it's different when flying to when doing a hang test. It also depends on the posture you are having at the moment. I got some papers regarding the BMS but other than that you need to check online. Most of it was quite easy so I wouldn't worry about it.

    @@PontusEgnell Ok thanks! I'm only 68kg and I want to build a half hr batt to keep the weight down. Now I'm about to order the SP140 frame. Do you think that besides the fun part of flying low, ocasionaly would be possible to catch a thermal and climb so prolonging the flight?

    @@Seneslau07 Yeah it's definitely possible to catch thermals and theoretically stay up for 10 hours. Just be aware of the potential dangers of flying mid day. I find it a lot more difficult to find the thermals and stay in the core while flying paramotor compared to when paragliding. But I've done it and it sure does work. 🙂
