Instructions: how to attach the Mistral 5 paramotor risers  

 

In this guide we describe how to set up your Mistral 5 with paramotor risers.  

Please take extreme care when you are doing this and double-check everything one final 
time when you have finished. 

Caution:  After you have finished attaching the paramotor risers, it is essential that 

you inflate your glider before you next fly it and check that everything is in 
order 

1.  Preliminary 

You will need the following items to set up your Mistral 5 with paramotor risers (Fig. 1): 

1.  Paramotor risers for Mistral 5. We have developed paramotor risers specifically for the 

Mistral 5. These are very different from paramotor risers for other models of paraglider. A 
quick-link with an O-ring is attached to the right-hand B-riser. This should make it easier 
for you to change the risers and will be left over once you have finished. 

2.  Your Mistral 5 

3.  A small spanner (7mm wide) to open the quick links  

4.  A place to hang up the risers  

5. These 

instructions

Items required 

2.  How to change over the risers 

We recommend that you hang up the risers in pairs beside one another when you change 
them over i.e. the two right-hand risers together and then the two left-hand risers together 
(see Fig. 2).
