Paramotor geometry completely redesigned
We have completely redesigned how paramotor chassis and harnesses have looked for years. In Scout we have implemented the advantages of a climbing harness with mountaineering backpack and paragliding harness to give you the best possible handling on the ground and in the air. Even loaded with full luggage bags and filled out with 19 liters of fuel for your big adventures the Scout NXT paramotor feels lighter and handles like a dream.
A completely foldable seat board allows you to run faster and easier while the waist strap holds over 80% of the weight allowing you to freely move your shoulders and giving you full control over the glider.
What is your NXT adventure?
Feels lighter than it is
Paramotors are sometimes called ”backpack aircraft”. While being a great aircraft, they are almost always poorly-designed backpacks. Any pilot carrying a paramotor looks as though they are far from enjoying it. For years this has been the case. Why?
We have completely redesigned the harness to reflect the best features in backpack/rucksack design. Incorporating a waist belt and proper backpack geometry, we have transferred 80% the weight to the waist. Your shoulders are now unloaded and free to move while allowing your arms unhindered control of your glider.
It actually feels lighter. Lighter than paramotors that actually weight less on the scale. We don’t know why we didn’t come up with it sooner.
Variable frame geometry on SCOUT NXT paramotor
Most paramotors have a parallel frame construction providing a good enough position for ground handling, but a less than ideal position in flight. The prop is usually reclined for sacrificing some thrust to keep it comfortable, which is obviously not the ideal solution.
The Scout One has a reclined angle built into the frame thus keeping the prop perfectly vertical in flight and your back comfortably reclined. This downside to this is that it makes ground handling a bit more difficult, not a problem at all if you do it right.
But now with variable frame geometry you can have the benefits of both!
Engine stays perfectly parallel to your back when standing on the ground allowing you to straighten up and have a great view of your glider whilst on the ground. Once airborne the frame geometry changes to give you a nice reclined angle for your comfort. Say goodbye to compromise during your paramotor adventure flying!
Flip seatboard: Comfortable during paramotor adventure flying
Easiest “into, and out-of” harness. Ever.
Some paramotors are easier to get seated but more difficult to get out the harness for landing. Other paramotors are easy to get out of the harness but impossible to get seated without the use of either your hands or a support bar/ kick-in stirrup.
Now with the NXT there is no need for compromises. We have completely redesigned the harness geometry. The main strap of the seat board slides through a shackle allowing the seat to fold all the way down for easy takeoffs and landings. Getting into the seat is as simple as lifting your knees and the seat board will follow effortlessly.
Back and neck protection
The SCOUT One features the carbon back protection shield and it proved to do a great job. Now The NXT goes even further with carbon all the way from neck to lower back. Oh and it is easier to reach for the starter handle too 🙂 Are you ready for paramotor adventure flying yet?
Quick release
Get out of the harness with one single buckle. To increase the safety we have modified original Amsafe Buckles (you know them from Airbus and Boeing airplanes) and we have added a two-step yet single-handopening. Quick but intentional only. It’s really that simple and intuitive!
Fully certified
SCOUT is fully certified according to EU regulations. We have passed certification in both the Czech Republic. In most other countries no certification is needed.
This means that all Scout paramotors meet rigorous EN testing criteria to ensure passively safe design and as well as demonstrating it’s structural integrity by passing load tests for 150 kg at 15g. Would you believe that there are only a handful of paramotors on the market that have passed this certification!?
Comes With Every SCOUT
Safety at first place…
…and that’s why we developed this little computer that one day can spare some troubles.
The Safe Start system is a small computer that monitors the revolutions of the engine. In case the revolutions increase suddenly right after start and this device will instantly shut the engine off and preventing injuries during startup.
Monitor your machine
Its like driving your car without a tachometer right? Thats why we install a RPM meter that monitors your engine. It can save you a buck in the end of the day.
Protect your carbon!
Scout is sexy and we know that! We want to help you with protecting your paramotor. Thats why we pack with every scout our prop and cage bags.
We designed the bags the way, that you can pack your cage and prop and walk out with your disassembled motor on your back with cage + prop in your one hand and another hand is free for beer.
Select Your Options
Vittorazi Moster Plus or Vittorazi Moster Factory R
We believe the NXT is the best in combination with the Moster Plus or Factory R Sweet.
Both manual start only as the handle is so easy to pull that there is absolutely not need for electric this time.
19 liters as standard.
With our custom 19-liter fuel tank you’ll have plenty of fuel to fire up your next adventure. Due to the waist strap, proper backpack geometry, and higher/compact design of the fuel tank, it’s easier than ever to carry up to 4 hours worth of fuel. Enjoy!
For all sizes and shapes
The harness is actually made of three pieces put together right on the frame. This way one single harness can be adjusted from small to extra large.
You choose!
We know each pilot has their own needs. Same with the throttle placement. If you're new to paramotoring, we suggest positioning the throttle to the left.
At SCOUT paramotors we always like to raise the customer satisfaction bar. For that reason, now every SCOUT paramotor will come with one of the best throttle options around: the Vitorazzi V-Throttle. It is made out of strong nylon and the touch is good with a grippy feel and the placement of the stop button is well thought out so that it is very difficult to press it by mistake.
