Revolution Paramotors - RPM (US manufacturer)

Revolution Paramotors (RPM) continuously test fly Powered Paragliders (PPG) and Paragliders (PG) for there customers and for themselves to stay current with new developments and materials. They don’t really care who makes the best product; there philosophy is that, if it’s the best, then we will make it available to you. 

Recently, this philosophy was put to the test.

In 2006, RPM was forced to drop there long-time PPG manufacturer because they began to produce products that did not meet RPM's standards.  As a result, RPM began to manufacturer there own paramotor unit.

The result: The Revolution “Flat Top”

Why do we like the new Revolution™ Flat Top so much?

• Normal “Free-Flight” hook-in points -
  All paragliders were meant to be flown with low hook-in point.  If you do not fly with low hook in points, you are susceptible to “Riser Twist” (see this video) and generally unstable flying posture.  If anyone tries to sell you on “High Hook-In” ask them why paraglider manufacturers recommend,  for safety reasons, “low” hook-in points for all Paragliders.
  
   

• Kevlar cage line -
  The primary injury in our sport comes from prop strikes to upper body extremities. Our innovative, new netting system prevents hands and other body parts from getting through the netting and cage frame into the prop. It is so strong that you can turn the paramotor on its back and walk on the line without breaking or stretching it into the prop.
  
   

• The Flat Top packs up in a small box or the trunk of a car.
  
   

• Strongest unit on the market -
  The most common incident in our sport is falling down during launch. The fact is that you will trip and fall occasionally – the Flat Top is your best bet from keeping those expensive props in one piece and saving your cage parts. NO OTHER MANUFACTURER has what we have.
  
   

• Anti-torque/Comfort Bars -
  These bars are so essential in so many ways:

  1. First, they allow the low hook-in point and stabilize you and your glider.

  2. Second, they help to reduce the effects of torque steer.

  3. Third, if you fall forward during your launch or landing, they protect you from impacting the ground with your face.

  4. Fourth, the comfort bars can be adjusted in seconds to different weight pilots.
     
      

• Skids -
  You will land hard occasionally. Don’t you want something underneath your butt for protection? I do! That’s why I don’t enjoy flying a motor where you sit on the ground to hook in. With all that weight on your back and your butt hitting first…well…OUCH!  Also, if it is a little damp or muddy, you are sitting off of the ground in a Revolution…AHHHH!
  
   

• Un-equaled thrust to weight -
  Our competition hates us in this category because we ALWAYS WIN…Every time! This is important, because you want a unit that gets you off of the ground quickly and efficiently. And, if you want to fly up to 18,000 feet, our unit is the only one that will get you there!
  
   

• Easy to get in seat -
  After launching, the Revolution harness design scoops you up right where you need to be. Other brands require you to let go of your control toggles after your launch and literally pull yourself into the seat…very dangerous.
  
   

• Very comfortable to fly -
  The feeling of sitting in a super comfortable chair while flying. Enough said.
  
   

• Custom throttle handle -
  Most manufacturers scrimp on this by using a bicycle handle to hold your throttle cable.  The Revolution custom injection-molded F-16 handle is the most comfortable, ergonomic and easy to operate throttle handle on the market.

• Unparalleled Engineering - Absolutely beautiful to look at!
  No paramotor on the planet has our engineering, attention to detail and manufacturing. I challenge you to look at our unit side-by-side with ANY other brand of paramotor.  You be the judge.
