Pilot Suitability
The Speedster 3 has been designed as a solo paramotoring wing for competent intermediate
pilots only. It is not suitable for beginner pilots nor is it intended for training, tandem flights
or aerobatic manoeuvres.
Certification
In addition to our own extensive testing, this wing has passed the criteria required by the
DGAC and has been load tested to the EN 926.1 standard. In-house safety testing following
the EN 9262 protocol has shown the wing to behave in accordance with EN C with the trimmers
set to the slow position at the maximum free flying weight. It has however, not undergone any
independent flight certification.
Choosing Your Wing Size
The most suitable size wing for you depends on how you intend to use it. If you will be flying
solely with a motor, aim for the middle of the PPG weight range (all up weight with wing,
motor, fuel etc). However if you intend to also free fly with the wing, consider your all up free
flying weight and aim to be near the top of the PG weight range.
Never fly above the recommended maximum PPG weight.
Wing Loading and Flight Characteristics
Wing loading has a significant effect on the flight characteristics and behavior of the wing.
Heavily loaded, the Speedster 3 is more responsive to pilot inputs and reacts more dynamically
in turns with a greater loss of height. Recovery from collapses tend to be more impulsive and
with higher pitch angles. High loading also makes the wing more likely to remain neutral in
a spiral dive, especially when combined with a high hang point or trike power unit. Flying at
the maximum recommended load is only suitable for more experienced pilots who have the
necessary skills to control a more dynamic wing. High G rapid descent manoeuvres should
be avoided when flying above the maximum recommended free flying weight or when flying
with a trike or high hang point harness. Never fly above Ozone’s recommended PPG weight
range whilst under power.
IMPORTANT
Wing loading has a
direct effect on the
flying characteristics.
The closer to the top
of the recommended
weight range the
more dynamic and
responsive the
wing will be. Fly
progressively.
