THE EPSILON 9 Paramotor

In this supplement to the ADVANCE EPSILON 9 manual you will find

everything you need to know for flying this glider with a motor.

Range of use

Because of its good takeoff qualities, high stability, damped behaviour

and compactness the EPSILON 9 is ideally suitable for paramotoring.

Hybrid-Risers, which can also be used for flight without the motor, are

recommended.

Hybrid-Risers

The Hybrid-Risers are fitted with trimmers. These can be used for both

counteracting the turning effect of the motor and adjusting the fly-

ing speed. For flight without a motor the trimmers must be disabled by

hooking them into the main carabiners. The wing then keep its paragli-

der certification.

The Hybrid-Risers have a speed system for use when flying without the

motor. Illustrations of the Hybrid-Risers can be found on pages 5 and

Caution: You are advised not to use the trimmers and speed

system at the same time.

Flight characteristics

This section is added to "Flight characteristics" in the EPSILON 9

manual, which also basically applies to paramotoring.

The flight characteristics of the EPSILON 9 are virtually identical when

flying with or without a motor, especially at the same wing loading. In

the expanded weight ranges for paramotoring (see table) manouevring

will be slightly more dynamic because of the higher wing loading.

Similarly with trims open manoeuvres will be a little more dynamic be-

cause of the lower angle of attack. Even though the EPSILON 9 is ve-

ry stable and compact the trimmers should stay closed when flying

through turbulent air.

Thanks to the EPSILON 9's good takeoff behaviour the trims don't ha-

ve to be opened when taking off with light wind. The wing pulls up mo-

re easily in other wind situations if the trimmers are opened adapted to

it, but you should then expect a longer takeoff run.

Caution: If you fly the EPSILON 9 as a paramotor in its expan-

ded weight range the trim speed will be higher. Lift off and lan-

ding speeds will also be higher, and this is clearly noticeable in

light wind.
