The H&E Paramotores Solo is a Spanish paramotor that was designed and produced by H&E Paramotores of Madrid for powered paragliding. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.[1]
The Solo 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 Solo 210 14 hp (10 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a reduction drive and a 99 to 120 cm (39 to 47 in) diameter two-bladed wooden propeller, depending on the model. The fuel tank capacity is 9 litres (2.0 imp gal; 2.4 US gal).[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]
