F5 School
You had me at #StartYourEngines. The simplest, most straight forward reflex wing available. Designed to accelerate learning curve of any beginner and bring them into the air as fast as possible.
Pilot Profile:
Schools/instructors. Pilots in their first steps into the sport, gaining experience and confidence.The F5 School version is a simplified, more basic version of the standard F5 paramotor wing, offered at a more attractive price point. It features the lightweight canopy and unprecedented stability of the 'Mohawk', but with a damped down brake action to be much more forgiving and beginner-friendly. The risers are simplified, utilizing one main brake line without a 2D system, shorter legs, and minimal trimmers, omitting the speed system and tip steering to maximize ease of use. It is designed to shorten the learning curve for students and instructors alike. A retrofit kit is available to upgrade to the standard F5 once the pilot is ready.
