Design and development

The Climber was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules as well as European regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, single-place accommodation and a single Simonini Mini 2 Plus 28 hp (21 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a 2.4:1 ratio reduction drive and a 100 to 124 cm (39 to 49 in) diameter propeller, depending on the model. The fuel tank capacity is 5 litres (1.1 imp gal; 1.3 US gal), with 10 litres (2.2 imp gal; 2.6 US gal) optional.[1]

As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is accomplished by foot. Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw.[1]
