One of the most interesting things to come from my research regarding acquiring motors, props, and paraglider kites as well as where is the best place to learn to fly? is that of all the places one could learn likely the most thorough and complete way to be a safe pilot and not die would be at Eling's Park in Santa Barbara of almost anywhere in the U.S.
So, if you are in SO Cal or can get to so cal and have enough money, time and physical endurance and strength This might be your answer in regard to training at a very high level of competency here at Eling's park in Santa Barbara, California.
The other thing I have learned is that at least in regard to Ozone Roadster paragliders you might want to buy as a new pilot, is that the biggest kite they make only carries 319 pounds. Now when you consider that your motor, fan and housing weight 60 plus pounds ( a lot of weight to be running with on the ground) so you better be in really good shape.
But also what this means is flight weight (your body weight) cannot be above about 250 pounds and get you off the ground safely when you add to this over 60 pounds of fans, motors and housings which actually push you off the ground whether there is a little wind or even no wind (no wind is better) for flying PPGs.
