Medium Edel Power Atlas Paraglider

Fresh Breeze Simonini tool kit
deluxe embroidered propeller covers
complete suspension hardware with weight shift and Premium Caribiners
Fresh Breeze Medium Harness ( detachable for ground training)The Paramotor and Paraglider has never been flown and was purchased new for 9,500.  The motor has been run a couple of time, I started it up today, but has essentially no runtime on it.  The Paraglider has been exposed to sunlight for all of 2 hours while doing some ground kiting on a groomed grassy field.  I bought this unit at the same time that I bought a Fresh Breeze Top 80, one unit was for me and the other was for my girlfriend.  In the end my girlfriend never flew (obviously why we broke up) and since I took my first flight on the other unit I continued to fly it and left this unit untouched anticipating that I would be selling it.  It is in out-of-the-box condition.  Unfortunately I stored the cage pieces of the unit on top of my hiking equipment in my shed and a squirrel chewed through some cord on the cage and my backpack to get to food I had left in my pack (what was I thinking!).  I repaired the chewed cord with the premium material recommended by the US Fresh Breeze Importer, and the repairs were excellent if I say so myself.  This has no impact on the unit and even aesthetically its not noticeable without close inspection but there are a couple of knots in the cords that obviously weren't there fresh from the factory.  There is a picture of this repair in the ad and I consider it trivial but it is just in spirit of full disclosure that I elaborate on it.This is the Rolls-Royce of paragliders with a ton of upgrades and optimizations by Fresh Breeze.  Fresh Breeze is the oldest and most experienced paragliding manufacturer in the world.  This is not the stock Simonini engine it has been re-tuned by Fresh Breeze.  This combo muffles the intake noise and the soft carburetor mount makes for very smooth engine operation.The engine has been re-tuned by Fresh Breeze with their own tuned pipe/carburetor and re-drive combination that work together with the composite propeller for quiet but powerful and smooth operation.  A Nikasil coated cylinder for decreased friction and longevity.  Three flexible joints in their custom exhaust and well dampened mounts prevent the exhaust cracking that plagues practically all other powered paragliders from the vibration of these high rpm motors.  This pipe is designed on the Fresh Breeze engine dyno to smooth out and lower the power band of the engine. A little power is sacrificed, but the rpms are reduced to 6,000, for very quiet power and long life. All other motor units use the stock Simonini pipe that tends to crack after a while at RPMs over 7,000. A high energy Ignition, a high power resonator, and the Famously reliable BING Float bowl carburetor is fitted for instant starting; which if you fly with anybody else you will realize is unheard of on other units.  Also it can be pull started in midair reliably.  The tuned pipe and re-drive have lowered the power band of the engine allowing very quiet operation and increased longevity.  The crankshaft bearings are replaced with German super duty ROLLER bearings with a much longer life than the stock bearings and crankshaft is finely balanced in Germany.  The crankcase is reinforced with a stainless steel plate to reinforce the stock crankcase. The unit also comes with a superb composite Helix propeller.  This engine has a ton of power and can easily be used for tandem flights and for tripod/wheeled flights.  If your interested in wheeled flights Fresh Breezes has a Fly Pod Trike set up which clamps directly to this frame and if you wanted you can easily switch from foot launching to wheeled launching.  The Fly Pod is also the most compact and well designed Trike set up I have seen.The high mounted, high capacity, gas tank provides reliable fuel delivery and enables long
duration flights (4-5 hours).  This unit has a non-integrated harness that allows for great weight shift and the harness can easily be detached used for ground handling.  Most harnesses are attached to the motor, and are not removable.  This units feature a soft J-bar suspension system.This feature also gives you an excellent feel for your paraglider and the ability to weight shift your glider like no other unit out there. On climb out, you can simply cross your legs away from the turn induced by engine/propeller torque, and you are flying straight! Especially valuable when motoring in thermals, where you will really appreciate this unique system.  The harness also has a quick release that allows an emergency motor jettison feature (in compliance with German ultralight safety requirements) for even more enhanced security in flight. If there ever was a time where your motor caught on fire or if you had a water landing, you can simply pull two pins, then slide the motor pack off your back and let it go.  Fresh Breeze is the only motor on the US market that offers this degree of safety.  Also all Fresh Breeze units are destructively tested and certified by DULV(German Ultralight Association), no US units are held to this level of scrutiny.Fresh Breeze USA has all parts in stock, a very generous warranty as well as top technical support. Fresh Breeze has been developing motors for 15 years and has an established factory and a very experienced, long-term US importer.The bottom line is there is no paramotor on the market with nearly this level performance and long term reliability.  You just worry about flying not adjusting your carburetor or welding and wrapping your exhaust.The Paraglider for this unit is a Medium Edel Power Atlas.  The wing is a solid beginner/intermediate wing that you can grow into and I have seen it used by others for some pretty advanced acrobatics as well so it is no slouch.Specifications:Weight 54lb, Thrust 145lb, Max pilot weight 240lb (it has been used for a 460 lb pilot with a Trike so there is plenty of extra power for tandem flying)  Engine:Simonini 210, 24 HP at 6200 RPMPropeller:48″ Helix CompositeThis is absolutely everything you need to fly!  That means all of the equipment plus Free Training (If you are in the USA) for life from the Most Experienced Powered Paragliding Instructor in the country, Captain Kurt Fister.  Just beginner training (about 3 days) to get you off the ground is typically 2,000 - 2,500 dollars per person and more advanced training becomes expensive fast.  With this equipment the training is truly Free and Unlimited; meaning you can go far beyond beginner training all the way to acrobatics all for free.  I know the training sounds too good to be true but I bought my equipment new from Captain Kurt and have spent more than 5 days on two different occasions training with Kurt (staying in the guest room at his house) and I can't say enough about the quality of the his instruction and his commitment to his students and their safety.  Point in case he is letting me pass on thousands of dollars in free instruction with my equipment when I sell it just to insure the buyer is going to get quality/safe instruction even though he is making no money off of it.  This guy is the real deal he doesn't instruct for money he does it as his passion, a few minutes on the phone with him and this will become clear.  You can checkout his website at FlightJunkies.com and if your serious about buying the equipment message me first and you can go ahead and call Kurt to hear more about the training and to get incredibly psyched about flying.
