Design and development

The Mach 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 14 hp (10 kW) Solo 210 engine in pusher configuration powering a two-bladed or four-bladed wooden propeller through a reduction drive. [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]
