As we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the first Scout Carbon Fiber Paramotor in the USA, we would like to announce that production units will go on pre-order status starting May 20th. The first ten units sold in the USA will sport an introductory price of $7995.00. This introductory price includes the paramotor complete with SafeStart module, shipped anywhere CONUS.
Following the introductory priced units, the Scout Carbon Paramotor will retail at $8450.00.
The Scout paramotor is a revolutionary design that was designed by Miroslav Svec of Slovakia. The Scout is groundbreaking in that it is the first paramotor which adjusts it's torque compensation measures for your flight profile by design. The lightweight design is currently coming in just over 54lbs on the scale; with a very central center of gravity making the paramotor comfortable to carry on the ground, as well as capable of extremely effective weight shift. This paramotor is very likely the closest feeling to free flight paragliding!
With it's extremely low drag, low weight, and high power-to-weight ratio; it is the obvious choice for competitors and skilled amateurs alike.

I have a questions regarding Scout’s prop. Vittorazi has made a new prop that is specifically designed to cool the engine. In regards to the propeller that comes with the scout, does it have any of these cooling properties?

Kyle,
The Scout prop has a similar design that has more pitch near the inboard section than outboard, to increase airflow in near the engine. Effectively mimicking the cooling properties of the NM series props you’re referring to.
Thanks!
