In the U.K. teenagers are more interested in beer and the other sex! Libya is a bit far to travel from my house. Is there a local club in Libya? Reply by YouTube message. Pete

Paramotors have a ... ( 3 months ago by flyingleek)
Paramotors have a guard (cage), hang gliders don't have one. Maybe because paragliders have lots of lines that are slack until takeoff and need protecting from the prop. Also inflight turbulence can collapse a paraglider and the lines could theoretically go through the prop. The chance of a prop strike is much less on a HG. Pete
in theory, could ... ( 3 months ago by wwjdend)
in theory, could you just have an electric motor connected to a battery. there for no need for gas or throttle,when you connect it it goes full speed,when battery dies it turns off,no need for throttle,... there for you could store batterys inside the hang glider,or more evenly all over the glider or even go as far as putting solar panels on it,fly all day,...

People are experimenting at the moment with electric motors, a few prototypes are flying, try googling electric paramotor as more work is being done on powered paragliders. Pete

ok search this video on youtube, hang gliding Big Spring 2006 hi could you stay in the air all day with this push cart method,if you were good enough at swooping with your HG,... and it seems like this method could surpass the mosquito method,cause by the time you ran outta gas it would slow you down,and you would still be aerodynamic with the push cart method,and you wouldnt have to jump off a cliff to get going,
Yeh, that's ... ( 3 months ago by flyingleek)
Yeh, that's aerotowing- using an ultralight aircraft to tow hanggliders into the air, I have a video of me learning that launch method in Spain. Running outta gas doesn't 'slow you down' it means you cannot climb (ascend) or maintain your height without finding natural lift (thermals or wind deflected upward from a windward cliff or steep hill).
ok,search for solar ... ( 3 months ago by wwjdend)
ok,search for solar ink,nano solar panels could we put these thin plastic solar panels on the top of our HGers, and connect it to a electric motor or even print the solar nano ink onto the hang gliders faberic

In the Indian city of Guwahati,amanhas developed a new hybrid car he's calling the Kanso.The 100-cc, two-seat Kanso runs on energy from four solar panels and petrol.Assam Tribune has a nice article on Kanak Gogoi and his Kanso, but they're not the only ones showing an interest in the vehicle.They write that Centre Bits and Atom,a US-based group,has given Gogoi some financial assistance to set up "new digital lab" What kind of innovations?Well,this guy has already come up with a"power hang glider

Phoenix foresees the computing power of today's Earth Simulator available in a cubic millimeter run on two watts of electricity. Nanomaterials will be 100 times stronger than steel, making possible the 10-pound airplane, yacht, and car. (For comparison, a hang glider today typically weighs 60 pounds.) "This sounds outrageous," said Phoenix, "But it's completely plausible."

Kanak Gogoi, 45, shows off his new minibike at his workshop in Guwahati, northeast India, on Friday. The bike, designed for children, is fitted with a Chinese booster engine and has a top speed of 25kph. It cost about US$250. Gogoi has created several innovative items like the TRYGOY, seen in the background, a two-seater car assembled from parts from obsolete vehicles. Apart from this, he has also created a power hang glider, four-stroke engine boat, water cycle and amphibious boat.
