FunFlyer


The FunFlyer, being the lightest wheeled PPG, is also the easiest and fastest way to learn how to fly.

After a couple of tandem flights and some taxiing training you will be able to take off, fly and land it on your own.


Please take a look at our video clip.
 
 
• A unique design.

Inspired by sand-karts and racing cars, the FunFlyer is unique in its kind: its modern look seduces pilots as well as spectators.
Style and simplicity could not be better achieved on a PPG unit.


• A second to none comfort.

No harness ! The bucket seat contains the large capacity gas tank. A very useful glove compartment is located in the backrest for your toolkit, cell phone, keys and other little things...
The FunFlyer is ideal for all kinds of pilots : with a simple tuning of the front wheel, you can adjust the FunFlyer to the length of your legs.
Its suspension smoothly absorbs all the bumps during taxi and landing.


• Safety.

The FunFlyer has a fully adjustable safety harness. As a consequence, the pilot and the FunFlyer make "one" for more comfort, safety and piloting comfort.
Safety chute can be added (standard).
• Light and Strong.

Mini weight – Maxi resistance.
The FunFlyer is only 120 lbs.
Resistance tests have shown that the FunFlyer resists to 6G (tests made with a 190 lbs pilot and 8 lbs gas).


• Outstanding performances.

The FunFlyer is powered by the new TIGER 160cc, very silent engine with a linear curve of power at all engine speeds.
It is today the best weight/power ratio on the market: 158 lbs thrust measured on our test-bench with a 51” propeller for only a 20 lbs engine!
The TIGER 160cc is 23% better than comparable engines: 6% more power for minus 19% weight...
The Tiger 160cc also powers the foot launch Adventure "M" serie.


• Convenient.

The FunFlyer can be totally assembled / removed in less than 15 mn.
No tools (secured pins), no trailer. When removed, it easily goes at the back of any type of car (space needed: 50” x 25” x 25”).
