Reflex Solo Elec

The Solo Elec was designed to comply with the European microlight regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, single-place accommodation and a single Solo 210 12 hp (9 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a 2.5:1 ratio reduction drive and a 123 cm (48 in) diameter three-bladed composite propeller. The fuel tank capacity is 10 litres (2.2 imp gal; 2.6 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]
