StatusProduction completed

The Paramotor Mosquito is a Polish paramotor that was designed by Ryszrd Zygadio and produced by Paramotor Napedy Paralotniowe (English: Paragliding Paramotor Drives) of Warsaw for powered paragliding. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.[1]

Design and development

[edit]

The Mosquito was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules as well as European regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, single-place accommodation and a single engine in pusher configuration with a reduction drive and a 100 to 125 cm (39 to 49 in) diameter two-bladed composite propeller, all depending on the model. The aircraft is built from a combination of aluminium, with a stainless steel tube propeller cage.[1]

As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is accomplished by foot. Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw.[1]
