Prev week
"I built the Frame, Harness, Throttle, Reserve Parachute deployment bag, and Fuel system in under two weeks of evenings and weekends while working a full-time job.
Excluding the engine, propellor, reserve parachute, and parglider (the stuff most people cant make themselves), the project cost under $200 USD. The things I didn't build range broadly based on new/used from $2000 - $5000+USD"
Never saw anyone make their own harness as well, you are multi-talented...

The harness is actually quite simple once you break it down into its basic components - and so is most everything else on the setup - I made the deploy bag for the reserve and some other stuff for it too.
What engine did you use??
One of my next projects is to come up with a cheaper alternative.
good vibes
The two most important thing in my opinion are to find a unit that you feel comfortable controling, and that you can get replacement parts for should you have any troubles. If you would like to give me some more specifics about where you are located, age, weight, and height send me a private message and I will try to give you some more specific suggestions
congratulations...
It's funny that I also used a Vitorazzi engine but a smaller one - the Fly 100 EVO
I have intentions to make a collapsible version, but currently I never have a need to disassemble mine.
Thanks for the compliment.
Looks like from your license plate that your on the other side of the globe - I wish there were more people in the US that fly.
