The Dynamic Sport Rocket is a series of Polish paramotors designed and produced by Dynamic Sport of Kielce for powered paragliding. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.
Design and development
The Rocket 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 Radne Raket 120 14 hp (10 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a 3.25:1 ratio reduction drive and a 100 to 120 cm (39 to 47 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.
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.
