Why Go Electric?

Simpler, quieter, cleaner flight. Electric paramotors strip away the complexity so you can focus on the sky.

Quieter Flight

~80 dB — about 10 dB quieter than gas paramotors (~90 dB). Easier on neighbors; ear protection still recommended for long flights.

5 five-star reviews from pilots around the world

The SP140 Electric changed everything for me. No more mixing fuel, no more ear-splitting noise. I just grab it, click the battery in, and fly. My neighbors actually wave at me now instead of complaining.

SP140 V2.5 Electric

I was skeptical about electric, but 165 lbs of thrust is no joke. Launches are effortless and the silence in the air is unreal. You can actually hear the wind in your wing. It's a completely different experience.

SP140 V2.5 Electric

Been flying gas for 8 years and switched to the SP140 Electric. The lack of vibration alone is worth it. After a 2-hour session of touch-and-goes, my arms aren't numb. The cruise control is a game changer for XC.

SP140 V2.5 Electric

I went with the SP140 Gas with the Moster 185 for cross-country flying. Three hours of flight time and refuel anywhere — perfect for my long-distance trips. The SP140 frame is incredibly well-built.

The open-source aspect sold me. Being able to tweak my throttle curves and power modes through the config tool is amazing. Plus the community is incredibly helpful. This is how all paramotors should be made.
