dear guys, i'm not new to HG but new to PF .. a little about myself: H1 kitty hawk lol, H2 lookout mtn O.O what a trip, H3 blue sky & florida ridge ~ (Long a** story and still waiting for them to tell me about my wing and H3) [sigh] and of course that brief synopsis says Nothing about my teenage dreams .. got the bug watching launches (and annoying pilots lol) at daly city near frisco .. ANYways .. back to PF .. the idea Always intrigued me and recently have come up with a version where we use a leaf blower O.O yep leaf blower to power our wing O.O trust me on this one i've figured out drag vs thrust and the more powerful blowers (no pun intended) will do it i'm SO excited! my fingers are trembling as i type! seriously! getting goose bumps!
obviously there's room under the harness straps - non-issue there, weight - non-issue (for me - i'm 170), the Only problems for me now are: 1. cost (i'm broke atm) and 2. redirecting thrust with the blower chosen for the prototype setup .. i can do 2 with supplies from a hardware store .. but 1 requires investor(s) .. IF ANYbody is interested in getting this out to the rest interested in PF, i'm pretty sure a market of say 1000 exists world-wide if not more .. we'd be customizing the blower to improve on the prototype and perhaps refinements for individual pilots .. contact me by private-chat or email if you're interested as investor (or here if you don't mind the publicity) .. honestly, i'm not interested in making $ on this project because: 1. i just wanna fly without a tow, 2. i don't have time nor interest to do full-time production of this thing, 3. i have other project ideas that are more interesting/marketable .. O.O that being said, i'm seriously In Love with this idea believe WE can make it work AND sell .. anybody "just reading" this post, please Pray For Us! sam
