What is the maximum wind speed a paramotor can fly in?
Take-off can be achieved with no problem up to 10kph – any more than this, and you need to perform a reverse inflation and then turn round to take off. The limit of wind speed for take-off is around 20 to 25 kph, but with 20 to 25 kph wind on the ground, the wind-speed could be 30 to 40 kph at altitude, and it may not then be possible to penetrate forwards, only to go backwards over the ground. In these conditions, it is much more advisable not to fly, and it is often worth reminding yourself of the old aviation proverb: <
