Paramotor Flight at Pilot Mountain - Paramotor NC
Join me for a trip to Pilot Mountain, NC. I explore the Big Pinnacle in Pilot Mountain State Park. I fly the paramotor around the surrounding area. And I camp with other paramotor pilots at Jomeokee Campground. I want to say a special Thank You to Darren Locklear and CarolinaPPG for allowing me to tag alone.

You too. Look forward to getting together again soon.
I live in the hills I've Southeast Kentucky on lake Cumberland and as far as I know I can't think of anybody who could help me get started in this but I sure would love to do it, young man keep having a blast and keep staying safe, and may God bless you all
Wow, looks like a great place. Living that far south (upstate NY here) has its advantages!!

Man, I moved here from NY. Loved it there, but we have fallen in love with NC too.
Ben, when you transport your paramotor in your car, is the only "gas" related issue coming from the vented gas cap? Are there any issue areas with gas might leak? Thanks

In my last motor, the atom 80 on a Fresh Breeze frame, the only issue was the vented cap. But I had a solid cap I could swap out for transport. In this motor, the master 185 on a PAP frame, there is an air tube from the gas tank to vent air. I can turn a small red value to prevent fuel from escaping durning transport. I think PAP has changed this design recently because I saw someone with a new model and no air tube leaving the gas tank.
Is flying like this risky?
