Parajet Maverick paramotor review by the world's best paramotor pilot. There is so many units out there and it's really hard to know what's what. The facts are really simple to see though when they are pointed out in detail by the master of masters.
That’s not a factory ParaJet net, and judging from your comments in here, it looks like you already knew that. That’s the kind of thing that makes people not trust you, Dell.
Also, it’s clearly not tensioned properly.
That lie was already tried sorry. You guys look really foolish telling that lie as another guy just got his shoulder nearly ripped off when he went right through the "better netting". Still another had the prop hit him in the foot. The FACT is you know darn well it makes no difference at all because even if the netting was zero stretch kevlar like on the Flat Top and you could magically super glue it to the cage so it absolutely would not move.... the cage itself flexes into the prop!!! So how is netting going to make ANY difference when the cage itself is so flimsy you can see clearly it takes almost no effort to flex the whole cage right into the prop?? Yea it doesn't. It's just a lie you guys come up with because out of the whole video you literally couldn't refute even one single FACT that was shared. Maybe I'll litterally super glue on some kevlar netting and do the review again? Or heck I'll use steel pipe for netting and still show how it won't matter as the whole cage flexes right into the prop. Thanks for the lie though. It really helps people see that it doesn't matter how obvious the facts are you guys just don't give one single crap about truth, reality or people's lives. SHAME on you for pushing crap like that. You know darn well how horrible it is. Ah yea don't trust the guy who SHOWS the blatantly obvious facts. Again you guys need more plausible lies because those suck.
@@DellSchanze What lie did I say? All I said was that it wasn’t a factory net.
Well that lie doesn't work either because people can see your post above where that's not all you said. Not only did you use the lie pretending that different netting would somehow change the results since the whole cage itself flexes into the prop anyway but then you used that lie to try to create distrust and pretend people shouldn't trust blatantly obvious facts in front of their face based on the silly lie of pretending that different flimsy netting would have somehow made a difference. Instead why not focus on the FACT that what was shared was absolutely truth and life & death critical for people to know??? You couldn't refute a single fact I shared but still tried to use lies and deception to pretend people shouldn't trust the obvious truth. THAT is seriously sick and a perfect example of the types of people that push that horribly unsafe gear. Thanks for showing exactly how those pushing that gear try to deceive people away from the facts that their lives depend on. That really adds to the full truth of just what kind of people keep pushing the same horrible gear with same horrible issues causing serious injuries & deaths for over 40 years without a single safety update.
@@Testarosa5252 it is a factory net i have one .I got mine new . 😁
Very interested in the sport, and the flat top looks designed very well. I’ll probably get one of them if I ever take the plunge, as they are obviously better in every way. But really. Dude needs to take a chill pill and quit ranting.
I have a walkerjet rr Im about to retire and I didnt think this whole crop of newer motors were so far from basic safety things I take for granted. I never worry about ground starts and I understand now why ppl are scared of them.
WOW 😲 Quite a difference!!
Yea it's pretty ridiculous there are people that still try to sell 40+ year old skycruiser designs like that without even 1 single safety update to address ANY of the well known catastrophic issues. It's sick.
Good video
You could at least tighten the netting properly before you start
That's like tightening a rubber band. Doesn't really matter as the netting stretches. It literally doesn't matter if the netting was made from no stretch kevlar as the cage is so flimsy you can see clearly that the whole cage and netting will flex back into the prop. The netting came installed like that so that is how a typical guy would set it up. I've seen them come loose in flight and go into the prop causing catastrophic failure in the air. Again this is why the Flat Top is really the only unit any competent or honest person could fly or recommend to others.
or just end that...
NICE!
That maverick looks like it has been wrecked, this is not a good comparison its very biased. You need to tighten the netting, there is a tensioner at the bottom. Its made so you can take the netting tension off when you take apart the cage.
Yes that's a common lie but tightening the netting even further is like tightening a rubber bad. It makes almost no difference at all. Plus you know it doesn't make any difference because even if the netting were made of no stretch kevlar the whole cage will easily just flex into the prop exactly as shown. So the only thing you can come up with to address in the whole video is just a lie pretending that stronger netting would make all the difference in the world. Tell the guy who just got his shoulder shredded as he had the better netting and the prop nearly took his shoulder off. Or maybe he was just biased and actually prefers to sit in the hospital doing surgeries so we can't count it as anything but personal preference? Seriously dude you guys go ahead and post all the lies you want. The more you lie the more people see how you literally can't address even one single FACT shown in the video. Also how is the netting going to help the guy who had the prop hit him in the foot? Maybe you can come up with a lie about how it's actual bias as many people personally prefer to have their prop hit them in the foot?
Best frame on the market for safety. It's also hilariously fun to fly because of weight shift. I absolutely love this frame. Wouldn't fly anything else.
With experience It's actually very easy to ground handle. Most people complain about how feels on the ground but it just takes a few flights getting use to. If you can get over that minor learning curve compared to a parajet it's absolutely worth it. I wouldn't let my family fly anything besides a Flat Top.
When you learn on the best gear you feel right at home and are taught how to use it. When you learn on total crap gear like parajet you dealt with scammers that often tell you every lie they can make up about the best & safest gear just so they can scam you into 40+ year old gear that hasn't had a single safety update. So there really are zero legit complains against the best & safest gear. You can literally watch little children fly full size and full power Flat Tops in nil wind at high altitude. So anyone complaining it is difficult is just being silly. lol. There really isn't anything but a Flat Top that any competent pilot would fly. No freaking way in heck would a competent pilot that understand the facts EVER want to fly anything but a Flat Top. When you have watched hundreds shredded in props, hundred who have died, countless broken backs, faces smashed into the ground, catastrophic self destruction from the slightest bump on the crap gear you can see why all the competent pilots fly Flat Top and nothing else. There is simply no excuse for those pushing ANYTHING else. Neither will they even try to give a real actual though out reason as to why it's better to chop your fingers off or break your back. They would just look silly trying to do an honest comparison against a Flat Top. There is zero reason to fly anything but a Flat Top. The only 2 reasons people fly ANY unit other than a Flat Top are 1) Ignorance, 2) Sheer stupidity.
Is this Jim
carry’s brother?
Is it possible to design and build a Flattop-II that is a high 'back pack' style that is less safe than the flat top but but much safer than the competition? Something draws most pilots to the high mounted less safe motors, and they do look less cumbersome on the ground, like wearing a back pack. Of course If sales are good for the FT than there no need to tap in to that market.
There is no point. Nobody on earth can do what we do on Flat Tops. So those with wisdom follow the example of those with the skills and knowledge. They don't try to make those with skills and knowledge make old outdated horribly unsafe designs while ignoring the warnings. Even little children can launch Flat Tops in nil wind at high altitude as you can see in my videos. So there is zero reason to fly the crap gear. ZERO. There is no excuse or benefit to flying crap. There just isn't. Watch a 10 year old or my 12 year old or 14 year old daughter launch the full size Flat Top before you whine and pretend another design is needed.
@@DellSchanze I'm not whining, it just looks like Trevor, the 2nd best pilot in the world, is training people with high mounted motors and people might go there because of the motor.
No people very rarely do ANY real research as to what's what. Who the heck in their right mind would even remotely consider anything but a Flat Top after watching the facts in this video? So those getting horrifically unsafe gear are getting it very specifically because those who are not honest and who don't really care about people's lives just lie to them and deceive them away from the best and safest gear. Plus there is a HUGE difference between a kid with some skills I taught him and MASSIVE experience, knowledge and understanding. So no you definitely don't want to just learn from an arrogant kid that thinks they know more than experts and even more than their own instructor. It's just silly. Kids like that are ok to help new students but never ever did I let them do people's first flights flight training as there is just no replacement for experience.
@@DAS-Videos So how does that make it OK? I've not seen any video comparing why the other units are superior. It is more comfortable on the ground walking around? I fly in the air. I don't need anything on my back to walk around. Lol
Do you have minaris and props in stock, ready to ship?
Yes we do. 800-707-2525
There seems to be a lot of other paramotor pilots on CZcams that don't like Dell. Like him or not you can't argue with his logic and reason. You can't argue with physical demonstrations he does. You can't argue that Dell isn't trying to push for the safest paramotor thus for the safety of the pilots. I watch pilots that don't fly Flattops make minor criticisms of a Flattop after flying one the first time and they are really just minor criticisms. Well, if more paramotor manufactures took safety seriously and implemented the same safety designs the Flattop has they could also make the small adjustments that the Flattop got. Then maybe Flattop would make them too. The two criticisms I hears were the 90 degree angle of the back of the Comfort bars tended to poke pilots in the arms. The other was the landing skids and fuel tank tended to hit the back legs as people ran for takeoff or landing. Both these issues could be addressed pretty easily though it probably increase production costs. Anyway, keep up the good work Dell.
Neither of those are issues. They are just blatant lies from dishonest and incompetent people. It's literally impossible for the tank to hit your legs with the harness adjusted correctly and those bars never stab you or I would have changed them. Not one single actual Flat Top pilot complains of either of those are they are not issues. Only liars doing completely fake reviews tell lies like those that make no sense. So no they won't be addressed as they are total non issues. Zero issue with either of them. The liars are so ignorant they can't even come up with good lies. Those are very weak. You can watch little children launching the full size Flat Top and nope the tank doesn't hit your legs.
Dell I’m getting a paramotor soon which one should I get
The Flat Top is really the only paramotor that competent pilots will fly right now. No other paramotor on the market has even the most obvious safety updates which is just horrifying. They keep causing horrible issues. So until there is another option that can compete with the Flat Top the Flat Top is currently the only unit to fly. It makes such a huge difference you really don't even want to get into the sport if you don't have a Flat Top specifically. The safety difference is so big that if you see ANY school using any paramotors other than Flat Tops you know without the slightest doubt they are completely and totally incompetent. Yes it's that big of a deal.
@@DellSchanze Ok thank you can’t wait to be up in the sky
how much is a flat top and are they available in the UK? i have an extremely tight budget and will probably end up with a second hand parajet? any ideas for a cheap flat top?
We have lots of options both new and used for Flat Tops and yes we ship to the UK direct so you don't have to deal with middle man fees. You definitely don't want a patajet even if it were free as they are a complete nightmare and every bump and you are spending a pile in repairs. The sport just isn't realistic without a Flat Top.
@@DellSchanze thanks so much for the reply Dell. Had a quick look at prices and a more in depth look at the flat top after I posted, and, while I find myself agreeing wholeheartedly with everything you are saying, short of a miracle or a stupidly low payment plan I doubt I will be able to fly a flat top any time soon😂. I fear I'm going to fall into the category of flying a potentially inferior second hand machine and paying a little(very often) on repairs and upkeep.
Damn it took over a year of waiting to find a decent but cheap wing to paraglide(my first flight is on my CZcams channel) . Now I have a second hand apco lift ready for ppg. It may sound stupid but flying has seriously saved my life. Its like the anti depressant that keeps on giving. One day I WILL own a flat top I'm sure of it. But I can't hang on til then without a paramotor lol.
I see the passion you have for this bit of kit and I love it.
If you HAD to recommend a cheap option what would it be? Or would you still say flat top over all else?
I hope that doesn't come across as rudeness. I appreciate your insight and advice man.
Thanks again
(just signed up to your website👍)
Well first you might consider the wisdom of really listening to the actual expert. If you can't get a Flat Top and a good certified glider don't get into the sport. The apco lift is a hoaxflex death trap. So oops. Get rid of it and get a good glider. Then simply save up and wait to get a Flat Top or you will end up ruining the sport for yourself. About 96% chance you will quit the sport without a Flat Top. You can ignore the reality and only think about what you want to do or you can accept reality and try to think with deeper understanding as to why I would say that. If I flew ANY other paramotor I would be dead right now at least a dozen times over. It's just not worth it to try to fly crap because crap just happens. It's just a matter of time. There is simply no reason for it. You are not going to save money buying a pile of crap.
@@DellSchanze OK dude. Thanks for taking some time to advise. And hey, maybe one day I'll have the chance to fly flat top. Cheers bro.
Bob
Yea it's hard when you are new to fully comprehend just how life & death critical the advice of one with experience really is. I've had my brake toggle go into the prop TWICE on crap like parajet. You can watch a guy die on youtube from that. One second he is flying straight and level and then bam he locks right into a face down spiral and dies. Another they are still searching for his body as he drowned. Still others broken backs, shredded body parts, smashed in faces, serious knee injuries and then there are the piles of deaths. That one top of the fact that without proper training you are constantly trashing the gear and the slightest oops or slip and WHAP the whole thing explodes. Been there owned that. It's a total nightmare. I watched a girl chop the tips of all her fingers off and I had to drive her to the hospital. So yea when I say don't get in the sport without a Flat Top there is 23 years of experience and understanding behind that. Over 80 people I've given advice to like this ended up dying exactly how I warned them. 80+ dead after they ignored my advice. Just think about my having to experience that 80+ times. Like Grant who died. I talked to him on the phone for 1.5 hours explaining every detail of why not to get a parajet or try to train with Aviator PPG. After 1.5 hours talking to the actual expert he ignored my advice and did it anyway. Then died exactly how I warned him. Eric.... same thing. I talked to him and warned him and explained the details.... he ignored me and then died exactly how I warned. Or Jeff who I did everything to help and who then ignored me only to die exactly how I warned him. In fact I warned him on fb so much that he blocked me for explaining in exact detail what the issues are with hoaxflex death trap wings they call reflex. Then he died on a hoaxflex death trap after a simple collapse EXACTLY as I warned. Or Adilson, Ben, Richard, Dean, Chris, Aziz, Julius.... on and on death after death and these are just the ones I warned personally who then totally ignored my advice. Thousands have been saved by listening to my advice and that's awesome but it gets really really old to watch so many die after they just ignore the simple and obvious facts. Don't ignore the expert. It's a really really bad idea. Just save up and do it right. It always pays to do it right the first time.
No arguments except the netting was purposely loose lol but it's funny that Tucker started flying this unit and in his last video talked about giving one away and now you have a video saying not to take it even if someone gives it to you. I see your a Tucker Gott fan too Dell as you seem to watch all his videos. Haha I love this drama
Nope I did not intentionally loosen the netting. I left it exactly as I received it. It doesn't matter one bit how tight you try to make it though as it stretches. That's like saying you need to tighten a rubber band. It does zero good as it will just stretch. Plus even if you use kevlar that has zero stretch I showed very clearly that the cage and frame is so flimsy the whole cage flexes right back into the prop so how the heck would even 5000 lb strength kevlar made tight as steel somehow fix the problem when the whole cage flexes back into the prop???? It's really not a funny drama when 3 more just DIED on crap like Tucker Gott promotes. 3 more DEAD in just the last few weeks with countless more injured. One shredded in the prop on the scout paramotor Tucker pushed him towards. Another broke his back and is in a wheelchair. So it's about sharing the truth and FACTS. People can watch crap like the parajet catastrophically self destruct in flight on youtube. ALL of their netting sucks and is worthless doesn't matter which version. It's just a lie they use to try to deceive people away from the many many very obvious FACTS in the video. Maybe I should do a video and rivet kevlar netting to the cage and then run it up full throttle and knock it over and show it explode into pieces.... what lie will they tell then?
Jordan, the laugh @9:29 made me smile. Thanks🙂
Why dont pylon ppg racers use the flattop?
Because they are incompetent. Competent real actual pilots don't fly around in circles back through their wake, low to the ground, while full speedbar on total death trap gliders. That is pretty much the absolute stupidest thing one could ever do in the sport and it has zero to do with the sport. That's why no real actual pilots entertain such stupidity. You will need some better lies to use because your absurd attempts to distract people from the FACTS shown in my video only show even more clearly that you guys are so dishonest and incompetent that you don't even try to refute any of the FACTS I shared. Instead you use stupidity and fake "competitions" that no real pilot would ever enter to try to distract people away from the FACT of how many people are getting seriously injured & killed on that crap. Thanks for posting another lie though. It's good for people to see how you try to use such lies to distract from the FACTS.
I think at this point, from a mechanic/fabricator point of view, when I DO start to fly I will be flying a flat top
I don't know shit about this sport, whatsoever. I don't know this guy either
but I gotta say regardless this vid makes sense
I am also going to assume he makes/sells these?
either way it makes sense to me
frame flex bad... net that stretches, bad...
one of these makes the other irrelevant...
I too, know very little about paramotoring but it's not hard to see why someone might ignore the hazards pointed out, and why one would address this by pointing at one problem without solving the one in hand...
A good product should be able to sell its self...
No marketing campaign, or advertising, or sponsorship, or anything that involves putting the idea in someone's mind before they have a reason for it to be there... If it needs more than word of mouth then it's not ready to profit off of it...
safety, ethics and an interest in something you pursue because you choose to is what life should be about. Not how to make enough money to to hire somebody to keep track of it for you to free up more time to maximize the amount of @sshattery you can lay on everybody before they see through your sh1t...
Naive? sure...
I've never been much of an Optimist, but I've never been the type to pull out my phone to to go live when I see something bad about to happen either...
In this regard, does the frame flex..?
Unless the guy pointing out the flex in the frame is deliberately lying and photoshopping the whole thing, this is where everything stops and should be addressed by yes or no...
yes it flexes but you are full of sh1t or No, and explain why the flex he's pointed out is somehow not related to you having some kind of prior relationship or arrangement before this video was made that would make both of you a bigger waste of time than I am commenting this....
sorry, I get carried away around salesmen pretending they're not con men because selling a scam is somehow not just a scam...🤦♂️
that enough internet for me today...
stay safe and safe travels everyone...
Flying should not be afforded to only those who can afford it.
Good luck trying to scare everyone else..🤷♂️
thanks so much for this video, it really brought some issues to light for me, I am just now making the decision to buy my first tig and I am now going to move my focus to the fklat top system.
Glad I could help!
Gracias from sinaloa mexico
i really only have 1 question. if these are the best of the best why does not a single world champion use one? serious question.i would think they would fly the best of the best
Actually all the WPPGA Paramotor World Champions fly Flat Tops. Zero competent pilots at all fly parajet. Literally not one single competent pilot anywhere in the world flies parajet. Seriously how could you even pretend someone is competent that would fly or recommend a unit that could chop your fingers off just trying to do a forward launch? Yes that's why all competent pilots fly Flat Tops. Thanks for bringing it up. It's sickening that there are scumbags so freaking evil that they would push crap like that Maverick.
not doubting what you're saying, but where are you hearing about all of these paramotor deaths?
They are all over the internet. I write up details of many on the fb group: paramotor ppg master chat
Dell, does flat top make trikes?
Yes the Air Trike is only 30 lbs and is very quick and easy to attach to any Flat Top. Plus you can put over 100 lbs in the luggage bag we make for it and carry some serious gear anywhere. :) Just call us at 800-707-2525.
Thank you Dell. Two more questions before I call you. How much is the 2 seater trike attachment and do you finance everything including Training or do I need cash? Oh I am 160 pounds and the wife is 180, would we both be able to fly in the 2 seater trike? Sorry all the questions but I almost have the wife sold on the sport.
We have lots of options. So it depends on what you get. Yes the Flat Top 200R will carry over 600 lbs so the weight is no problem. Generally we don't use a trike for tandems though as it's often easier to just foot launch for tandems. That way you don't have the weight of the trike. Give me a call anytime and I'll be happy to answer all your questions. 800-707-2525
Can you do a review on the limitless Paramotor
It's exactly the same unit with exactly the same issues. So every single thing talked about with the parajet applies exactly the same with the limitless paramotor. They are all just clones of the 1980s skycruiser that Blackhawk ripped off and copied.
I'm sold 100% on the FT. I've watched countless videos of guys botching landings and takeoffs, destroying props bending frames, etc etc. Most of the time they laugh about it and say, "I should be able to bend that right back and replace a $400 prop and be just like new." Just watched a video yesterday of a guy with "NO" training fail on his first takeoff attempt on a maverick and the ends of the prop exploded and the cage was bent. He came so close to a major injury or death, and had no concern about the equipment he was using. Now first off, I can't approve of someone trying this without training, although there have been some successful and very lucky guys that like living on the edge. That's cool if you are one of those guys, 👍 but I wouldn't suggest it to anyone. Some people are just amazingly lucky and talented and others not so much. But if the guy that thrashed his maverick would have been on a Fat Top, I don't think he would have sustained any damage at all, and he surely would have been safer. The one thing that really irks me, is that I haven't seen one "reputable" dealer out there offering FlatTops for sell. And it is 100% about the stigma of Dell. They are so against him that they wouldn't for one second offer their customers a safer machine and due to their absolute hatred towards Dell. Now I don't know if Dell allows others to sell his equipment or not. But I absolutely think it would be a great idea. I say let people choose what is right for them, choose the equipment, choose the training, we ain't getting out of here alive no matter what we do, but if you want to prolong your existence and fly paramotors, Flat Tops, Dominators and Super Training are probably a good option. As many are probably aware, Dells nephew broke away from FlatTop. This is where my opinion of what equipment is better gets interesting. While at FlatTop Trevor commented on many videos of Dells praising the equipment. Even going as far as saying that the crumple zone saved his life. Now he has gone out on his own and I think that's great, and I'm sure he will do well, I wish him the best. But now he will not recommend Dells equipment and even will talk badly about it. At first I thought maybe he actually has some inside knowledge about the stuff and maybe it's not as good as I thought. Then I read in one of his videos a comment by another well known paramotorist, congratulating him and saying So glad you did this, and went on to say that it's really the only way to do this right by not selling or promoting Dells equipment. Bingo! It was the only way that the mainstream paramotor world would accept him. This is really sad. Trevor is a good kid, smart and extremely talented, I'm sure his training will be great and he will be successful, but it comes at a huge price. I won't judge him for it, I don't know all the details, but Dell is absolutely right when he talks about evil and hate. My mind is made up, I know what equipment I am interested in and where at in Texas that I want to get training. I am not recommending that anyone follow what I say, make your own choices, but research long and hard. The facts are out there.
Great review Dell 👍
The netting on that isn't OEM parajet netting and also isn't tensioned. According to you I've died multiple times as I fly a Mav with a reflex Ozone 🤣 Also Dell there have been people killed on out of date heavy Flattops...
I figured you guys would try that lie but the FACT is it wouldn't matter if that netting was made from kevlar as the cage itself is so flimsy the whole cage flexes back into the prop. Plus it doesn't matter how tight you make that floppy netting as it stretches. People have had their units catastrophically self destruct IN FLIGHT on that crap so pretending that any other netting would instantly render it safe is a murderous evil freaking LIE. Yes 3 more just like you DIED in the last few weeks. Saying you haven't died yet doesn't change the facts of how deadly the gear is even in the slightest. "oh gee I've never had a problem" doesn't change FACTS. In all of history only 1 single person has ever died on the safest gear. That literally doesn't change the FACT that it's the safest gear in the world even by the tiniest bit. None of the 3 who just died were doing acro. They were all trying to fly straight and level when their death trap hoaxflex wing collapsed and caused them to do a backflip out of the sky. That doesn't happen on the safest gliders on the market. Crumple zone works. It's a fact. Thank you for showing how those pushing the horrifically unsafe gear don't give one single crap about reality or truth or people's lives.
How is protection from the prop "out of date" but shredding your hand in the prop that has been happening since the 70's and you still haven't fixed the issue "up to date"? How is breaking your face on a face plant "up to date" when it's been happening since the 70s but the only paramotor that is up to date that addresses all such issues is "out of date". Again thank you for your lies as it really shows exactly what the problem is. The evil people pushing the horrifically unsafe gear won't even try to address the actual FACTS. Not one single post from even 1 single person trying to refute the FACTS I've shared. Instead its' all lies and misdirection and deception. That is exactly how those pushing that horrible of gear do it. Lies and deception. Ah yea the "heavy" lie again. Cuz 2 lbs for a unit that is literally HUNDREDS of times stronger and more durable and infinitely safer is ohhhh so heavy lol. Again look how foolish these people are lying. Now just because I really love SHOWING without a doubt just how dishonest and foolish these liars are here is a video of a 12 year old launching a full size Flat Top in nil wind at high altitude....
czcams.com/video/-HyQoxT-kcU/video.html
Oh yea it's soooo hard to launch boo hoo.... a 12 year old can do it but ohhhh not these guys because it's soooo heavy hahahahahhaha.
James, you gotta admit, Dell brings the receipts.
Looking to buy a paramotor, and taking a look at Dell's Flat Top videos.
Wow, so this video was intentionally faked right from the start? Not using the original, factory kevlar netting tensioned properly on the Maverick makes the Flat Top stink of snake oil. Kevlar stretches very little, especially at the lengths here. Also, properly tensioning the netting can definitely stiffen up the cage's structure.
Also, if the 3 deaths on other paramotors are all related to non-pilot-related causes on Parajets, yet there are 10 times more Parajets out there... then statistically, Flat Tops are over 3 times more dangerous.
Couldn't be bothered to read the rest of Dell's rant (response). Sure would help Dell and his product/service/message if he weren't so hostile, narcissistic, and eager to resort to ad hominem attacks all the time.
@@TweakRacer Thanks for showing very clearly how you guys telling the lies literally can't refute a single FACT I shared. You can't even make up plausible lies. I showed very clearly that the cage is so flimsy it wouldn't matter if you put kevlar netting on that cage as the whole cage itself flexes right into the prop with very little effort. Yes kevlar netting on the Flat Top is incredible because the cage is so strong you can jump up and down on it as is obvious. Nope the strange lies about deaths and Flat Tops doesn't change the FACTS of the catastrophic safety issues either. Another guy just sent me pictures showing he went right through "better netting" and a flimsy cage and the prop severely shredded his shoulder. Yes thanks for calling names and claiming it's hostile to SHOW the truth and FACTS peoples lives depend on. People really need to see very clearly the mentality of those pushing crap like that and you nailed it perfectly. You didn't even try to address ANY of the facts but spew a load of crap and hate for the truth regardless. You need better lies as the guy HIT IN THE FOOT WITH THE PROP on that unit wasn't hit with an ad hominem prop. He was hit in the foot with a parajet prop. Ah yea I hope people love the part where I jump up and down on the engine that's made of snake oil as it seems even snake oil is over 100 TIMES stronger and more durable and infinitely safer than skycruiser clones like the parajet.
@@TweakRacer the parajet maverick doesn't come with Kevlar netting. It's black nylon. I tore right through mine when I was cranking it one day. I hooked the edge of the handle on the opening where it attaches. It also didn't matter how tight I got that cheap little ratchet that tightened the netting. It most certainly didn't make it a tough durable frame when I came in a little hot and face planted it. The entire unit bent to the point that the prop went into the bottom frame and the main frame around the motor mount bent and warped severely. Two years later I'm pushing the limits on my Flattop and miscalculated ending up in a full speed run almost face first into the ground. I walked away without a scratch and only had to replace a frame loop section and was right back in the air. After crashing the Maverick and realizing just how flimsy it really was, I did a lot of research. Not letting my distain for someone's personality get in the way of the facts. Also not letting popularity or fancy advertising blind me from what I could see as a clearly superior product in the way of strength and safety. Did I have issues at first launching it..... yes. It hung a little low for me. After proper adjustment of the straps it was fine. Is it as comfortable as my maverick on the ground? Nope, but a whole lot more comfortable than the maverick when I am in the air. All in all, it's our own decision of what we fly. I don't look down on my friends because they don't fly Flattops and they don't look down on me. We just fly what we want and have a good time. They make their choices based on whatever factors that interest them and I make mine off of my experiences with misfortune.
IM SOLD ON THE FLAT TOP... THANKS DELL. I've sent numerous post to Tucker to fly a F T or use a DOMINATOR for a comparison review...NOTHING BUT CRICKETS
Search his channel for 'Squashing The Drama'. It is a FT clone, but you can see that his legs are too short for this style of motor.
Yea Tucker pushes the horrible gear so he doesn't care one bit about the actual truth and facts that people's lives depend on. It's really messed up how people like that can literally not care how many are seriously injured & killed as long as they get views and money. It's sick.
Tucker said it sucks
That shows clear evidence as to how big of a liar and fraud Tucker Gott is. He intentionally, knowingly and maliciously tries to defraud people away from the best & safest gear so he can make a buck pushing totally unsafe gear. Seriously how big of a scumbag is that to have no little integrity and so little care for the lives of others? What the crap is wrong with people like Tucker Gott? It's just freaking evil. Pure evil.
This video comparison completely sold me on the Flat Top! Thank you for the information.
I owned a Fresh Breeze / Simonini and it bent the frame just from falling over in my garage. I then got a Fly Product Power Gold 130. The prop hit the lower cage on a hard landing and tore up the prop and frame. $700 later I sold it and got a Flat Top and never had a single issue since. The Flat Top is much stronger than any other paramotor I’ve seen out there. Not to mention one of our local pilots drowned in four feet of water because he could not get out of his harness. The Flat Top quick release harness would have saved him. They made fun of my FT. I’m still here and unfortunately he’s gone.
Hey Dell I'm a expat living in the Philippines...I was going to buy a parajet but after this vedio I changed my mind..I want to buy a flat top because it's safer and the same price do you ship to the Philippines....
How much is a flat top?
@@pakistansuperpower1444 The new Flat Top 200R is still only $7995. Are you in or near Manila? I'm actually going there next month. Perhaps I can personally deliver it to you. Give me a shout through ppghero@gmail.com
Wow thank you for comparison. I wanted to get into the sport
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback. Give me a call anytime at 800 707 2525
It's like running with scissors haha
If those scissors were spinning at over 500 mph then yes you got it right. Far worse than just scissors.
Pure comedic gold.
Ah yea because it's sooooo funny when people are shredded in the prop constantly or break their backs or like Kenny they drown and are still looking for his body. Mocking the FACTS people's lives depend on is seriously freaking evil. SHAME on you. You can't refute one single fact shared but then try to mock the truth??!! For those reading this is a perfect example of the freaking sickos that push this crap knowing full well of the catastrophic issues that have caused seriously injures & deaths for over 40 years.
Dell ,do a price comparison ft looks much safer,flown for years safety first.
The Flat Top is about the same price as all the others. What I really should show though is cost of ownership. Those who don't own Flat Tops will literally spend more in repairs than it costs to just buy a Flat Top. Every little slip or bump and they have to replace props, cage pieces, frame, engine mounts as engines get ripped off, body parts, gliders... ANYONE honest in the sport knows you are going to trash cases of props if you don't have a Flat Top. So thanks for the idea. People really don't understand just how expensive it is to try to fly a unit other than the Flat Top. I saw Javier of Fly Products just barely slip on some mud at a fly in and went to a knee. When the unit bumped the ground the prop went right through the frame and gas tank and the whole thing exploded with pieces and shrapnel and fuel EVERYWHERE. One spark and he would have been a fireball. I had a fly products unit catastrophically explode on top of me as well. I went to launch it and the harness bangs you in the back of the knees so you can only run so fast and once you are pushed faster than you run you fall down. The prop hit the ground, and cage above my head and poof... pieces flew everywhere. It was very expensive to fix. So thanks for the idea. I think a cost comparison video would be very eye opening.
Remember price is seldom the cost. What is your life or limbs worth? This sport should never be based on price. Please get what I'm putting down, it's your life we are talking about.
Great video!!
Very nice comparison and demonstration Sir👍👍. I like how you explain every detail including weight details of your paramotor. Damn that flattop is strong as hell
I get a kick out of every time somebody says do not Ground start your paramotor.. and why does it look like chocolate milk in your gas tank
lol redline oil is actually red. Not sure why it would look like chocolate milk haha.
@@DellSchanze must be camera or something but thats what it looks like lol thats what I use to it's good oil or amsoil is only oil I will use
It does look solid.
Good video. Valuable info & comparison. Thanks
I was gonna buy a parajet but not now. I think I’m going to buy this flat top one.
Are you ever going to do a review on the Limitless paramotor. That thing is even weaker than maverick, and Trevor is telling everyone to buy one. I have a buddy that damaged his cage on a forward launch, and another that contacted the prop with the cage on a barrel roll. After hearing about I will only fly flattop, but it’s import for others to hear this information.
Yes I already have some video of Trevor's personal unit that is totally trashed already with netting shredded on both sides. So yes I plan to do a review and explain the facts to people. It's really sickening when people like Trevor are so dishonest they really don't give one crap who they get injured or killed as long as they get their money first. I literally just caught him telling people how totally uncertified class death trap gliders are "safer" than the safest class of gliders. The sheer absurdity of the lies is really hard to comprehend. There are good people in the world and there are evil people in the world. It's just the way it is.
Those cheap fans' a komakosie packages!
Yea they are not cheap though. About the same price as the best gear on the market. Of course people who try to fly that gear will end up spending more in repairs than it costs to just buy a new Flat Top. Imagine all those prop, frame, cage, netting and body part replacements. Just one hospital bill for hand reconstruction surgery and they would have bought 50 Flat Tops.
I think you are 100% correct that the FT makes the sport safer for everyone and the other choices are deathtraps that only a fool would fly...
However,.. some of the deathtraps have a sleek daredevil style/vibe that the FT just doesn't have.
All the cool people fly Flat Tops. Not sure how looking like a moron with floppy netting that goes into the prop in flight ripping your engine off is a sleek vibe lol. Chicks dig Flat Top pilots. Even a bikini babe could take one look at that parajet and say no freaking way. Imagine tripping and falling down on a tandem with anything but a Flat Top. Where do you think that prop is going to hit? Right into the passenger. Stupid is as stupid does. I think you need to reconsider the vibe lying murdering idiots put off as it isn't cool or daredevil.
Haha Gravity Defiant go brrr
Gravity paramotors have all the exact same horrible issues as the parajet fine sir. So not absolutely don't even consider ANY of the skycruiser clones. None of them have updates at all to address any of the well known issues that have been causing serious injuries & deaths since the 1980s.
Making arguments in favor of unsafe gear because "lots of people use it" is absolute arrogance, and convinces me those advocating the practice are concerned only with their financial stake in the product.
I'm naturally ugly but I would be much uglier if it weren't for the Flattop. 4 times since I started flying my Flattop I did full power faceplants into the desert floor(once on grass in Louisiana). Not much grass to make mistakes on, out here. I never did learn how to land in 2 super training sessions. A victim of circumstance.
Try that in anything but a Flattop and see how you come out of any powered faceplant.
Flat Tops rule. Remember you should be sending me videos of your take off's and landings so I can continue to help you. You learned the skills to do it perfectly before you ever left the ground for the first time. So it's a simple matter of applying those skills correctly. It's no different than a run & jump done correctly and you have done thousands of those.
@@DellSchanze : Hi Dell, thanks for the quick response. I haven't any CZcams videos. Since I fly alone, I only have helmet cam views of my successes and failures. I've been flying the AirTrike and still make errors on take off. Getting 50% off the ground. Mostly learning when to abort lousy take off attempts. Without your help and guidance I have to resort to trial and error and there's no one available to video my errors. Thanks anyway.
@@grobschnittt Just stick a goprop on the hood of your car or something to video your launches and landings. Then I can see exactly what you are doing and help you fix the issues the next time. You can gain a lot by having me check your technique after every launch and landing.
@@DellSchanze : We’ll have to see about that. I value your input and I know you know what you’re talking about.
Happy to help anytime.
I feel you are doing GREAT work and genuinely cares about peoples safety! Thank you Sir I will be getting trained by you! Everybody needs to watch your channel before getting started.
I agree. I will definitely be trained by Super Dell
example: czcams.com/video/R-V6A0rYz2Y/video.html
Thanks for posting. I really appreciate you SHOWING the facts as so few out there have the integrity and character to stand up for what the real actual truth is. You show very clearly just how true what I said in the video is. THOUSANDS could show exactly as you have but you are the ONLY one. Kudos to you man. That takes incredible honor to stand up for the truth. Good for you. It's very sad watching sooooo many get seriously injured & killed when all it would take is even a handful more people to have character like you and SHOW people the dang truth. You have my greatest respect for doing that.
Aside from safety, The FT looks like the McClaren of the skies.
being British myself I approve of this..
when I get a rig this is what I am looking to buy
had me at the face plant part as I am sure I will do this.. being a guitarist I wish to keep my fingers and not "be looking for them in the grass"
cheers
I think I’m going to buy a flat top and get trained at aviator Paramotor. What do you think sir?
SUPER training is the only way to learn real skills. Those at Aviator literally can't even do what our brand new students can do. Check for yourself. Here is a video showing skills of some of our students:
czcams.com/video/RXC5Jx_URoQ/video.html
Challenge those acting as "instructors" at aviator to even show they can do what brand new SUPER students can do. They can't. Neither do they train anyone else to have true and real skills. All they do is chuck you in the air as fast as they can to take your money. Challenging them to show their skills takes all bias, bs and opinion out of it. Either they have the skills or they don't. Either they teach the skills or they don't. Do your research as your life depends on getting real actual training from real actual instructors.
Call me at 800-707-2525. The last 2 people who ignored my advice not to go to aviator both died. Grant and Eric. I warned them up and down to do their research and showed them the videos. They ignored it and then died exactly how I warned them they would. Don't make the same deadly mistake.
FLATTOP FOR LIFE BABY!!! Great video guys, keep up the great work. The FlatTop will literally save your life.... YOUR GEAR IS YOUR LIFE!
They have post on Facebook about this video it's funny how many people rather fly something so flimsy compared to the flattop
Is there a big difference in price mabe mabe they are to cheap to buy something safer than the flopsyjet
The prices are about the same. It's crazy that the Flat Top which is the best and safest in the world is about the same price as the absolute worst and most unsafe gear in history. People buy unsafe units because those they trusted their lives to completely deceive them and screw them over. It's sickening how many die simply because they were not educated on what gear truly is the actual best.
Just the tone of sound of each unit being dropped on concrete is enough to recognize the quality difference. Good review!!!
Some valid points
Just out of interest, how di you cut your finger off????
It was a motorcycle accident.
Great share and presentation Dell. Invaluable for anyone considering or are in the sport. Thanks.
When I save up the money I’ll be seeing you. I don’t care about what people say about you, your product is far superior and I like breathing. I couldn’t show that flimsy thing to my wife and kids and tell them I’m safe.
Love your passion, Dell, and attention to everything that makes for fun and safe flying!
Maverick is complete garbage... While training, i tripped lightly, went right into the prop, got cut up , busted the prop and bent the frame...Complete 9k piece of junk
Do you have pictures or video you can send? Kudos to you for coming forwards to tell the truth. People deserve to know these things.
@@DellSchanze I do not.....although my trainer did film it, so its possible the video is still available
I'm surprised they don't make them to where you got to have a airworthy certificate for these toys..hmmm
If they did then instead of $8000 a paramotor would cost $400,000 like a Cessna.
This is why I love my flat top. Couldn't be happier with what I bought
parajet is good to travel i guess due to very little weight and quick fit in small car
Actually the Flat Top breaks down faster and smaller. Plus the Flat Top is within only 2 lbs. So there really isn't any benefit to unsafe gear that I can see. Another guy shredded his shoulder causing very serious injury just a bit ago. There is just no reason for all the carnage & deaths if people simply get proper gear. Currently the ONLY paramotor on the market designed to address all the known safety issues in the sport is the Flat Top. I wish others would get up to speed but for now people just need to be wise and get the very best that will do the best to protect their lives. The sport is incredibly fun and safe IF people simply get proper gear. I seriously have way way way way over 11,000 flights pushing all the limits and setting more records than just about all others combined and have literally never once been injured on a Flat Top. The thing is ridiculously safe.
@@DellSchanze your are right. I purchased maverick and had problems aswell. some was my fault (put the net oppisite, when flying wind hit the popeller). EU rule is max 32kg to travel. Does your paramotor fit everything within 32kg?. and do you sell your paramotor in UK?
Yes even the super powerful Flat Top 200R is only 25kg. Plus it breaks down smaller than most other units because it's a 5 piece cage not 3.
I'm not even a parameter pilot. I do have a private pilot license and I have a heavy equipment excavation company. It's a no brainer the flat top is safer.
Why has Trevor Steele not been flying with a Flattop?
Stupid is as stupid does. Look at the review and then consider the competency or honesty and integrity of anyone that would push total crap like that. The gear someone pushes tells you a ton about their character.
@@TrevorSteele1 ok well I just started watching your videos Trevor and I googled you and your name comes up with Flattop. You are an amazing pilot and your doing a great job. I didn’t mean to cause a problem. I was just wondering why you were not flying a flattop. I was just confused as wondering what happened.
@UC4AGH5ZVtKSAZ7C9MN2HbTA SAD SO SAD.
It's a legitimate question and the review really shows what people truly need to know. Why people do evil stupid things would be a very long answer and more of a religious question than a paramotor question.
@@DellSchanze are you calling me evil and stupid now?
Dell only thing i can tell you you did wrong is stiching seat board how can user replace harnes whit 0 skills on stiching can you desing karabin in the midle so iz can be taken apart big fan but cant aford one friend got one sacond hand from italy
What do you mean stitching seat boards? If you need a harness you simply order it. Or many can repair your harness if you damage it.
@@DellSchanze in front of comfort bars, is fixed to comfort bars. side leg straps for seat. and it needs to be cut apart, friend got second hand FT and harness, is realy bad mice bites on left side
If there is damage we can repair it. It's really simple to repair for any shop that does that. Or we can sell you a new harness no problem.
@@DellSchanze we went to guy who repairs aicraft stuf and he fixed in 30 min no problem shiping from EU to US is bananas
Says the man who lost a finger to the prop 🤣
It was a motorbike accident a long time ago
I lost mine in a motorcyle accident but Britton Shaw, who is a fake instructor out there, did shred his hand in the prop on the units he pushes while working to deceive people away from the safest gear. Is that your brother?
@Dell Schanze Loving it!
Ouch…
The parajet is my worst nightmare.
What happened with yours? I'm getting lots of people messaging me their horror stories with units like that.
@@DellSchanze I have the Flattop i bought from you in 2019. Unfortunately for me i had to put my flying on hold before i could take flight. With great disappointment I have decided to sell my FT because it is not going to happen.
As long as you keep advising people about stacking safety in their favor and pointing to the danger of unfit equipment you are providing a service to the consumer.
Fly on!
Says the guy missing a finger... Ok.
Yea the guy missing a finger knows extremely well that you should never fly total crap gear like parajet, scout, nirvana or ANYTHING but Flat Top. It's just insane they sell crap gear that horrible. There is no excuse for it.
Bullshit !
Thanks for pointing out that those who hate the FACTS still can't even remotely try to refute ANY of them. Yea just call bs on FACTS so obvious those who know nothing of the sport can see the real truth. Your useless bs statement helps people see the mentality of those who try anything to deceive people away from the truth even if all they can say is bs. Yup BS is all you got to respond to this review. Amen to that.
Do you fly
ParaJet is SCAMMING YOU!
Thanks, Parajet should have been recalled for safety issues.
What crap.
I know it hard to believe anyone even tries to fly a sky cruiser isn't it
Jajajajjajjajajjajaja. What is smoking. Jajajjajajja
Those pushing unsafe gear are the ones left smoking now.
@@DellSchanze jajajajaja. Ok.thanks
