The Synergy Paramotors Synergy is an American paramotor, designed and produced by Synergy Paramotors of California for powered paragliding. [1]
The aircraft was shown at AirVenture for the first time in 2012. [1]
The Synergy was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules. It features a paraglider-style high-wing, single-place or two-place-in-tandem accommodation and a single Snap Ego 110 or C-Max 175 two-stroke engine in pusher configuration driving a 49 in (124 cm) propeller. The larger than usual diameter German Helix-Carbon propeller is employed to reduce noise and increase delivered thrust. The design uses a unique thumb-activated throttle switch that is available in left and right-handed configurations. [1]
The paramotor frame incorporates two small wheels that prevent wear when moving the power unit and also add safety during takeoff. As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is normally accomplished by foot. [1]
The power unit can be broken down to a size of 32 X 24 X 18 inches (81.3 X 61.0 X 45.7 cm) for ground transportation in an automobile trunk. Reassembly requires only fastening nine Velcro straps. [1]
