Old Guy Paramotoring-1st flight of the Fly Products Eclipse Atom 80

In a few words...lightweight, nimble, comfortable and easy to start with Atom 80 engine.

First flight on the Fly Products Eclipse Atom 80. Weighs 41.6 lbs without fuel. The seat is a minimalist design and I use a front reserve using the Advance Zip Light container and the Advance Companion Square Light (120 kg). It is comfortable and well padded with little vibration from the engine. It does not compare with the Dudek Powerseat but it also weighs much less.

There is a separate reserve container that you can purchase to attach to the harness if you prefer that arrangement.

I use the Syride Sys’Evolution Flight Computer.

I did attach a pouch container to the right side of the harness to take a quick stuff wing bag just in case I land out somewhere and have to hike. I also have another small container on the left side for small stuff like phone, wallet, keys, etc.

Fly Products is available from Aviator Paramotor and they were very responsive when my package went “missing”, and when I needed a new pull cord. They do carry Fly Products parts as well as Atom 80 engine parts.

A complete line of parts is available from FlyProducts.com and they do ship internationally.

I also order a lot from SkySportsUSA.net and they have always been great.

Thanks!!
