The Fun 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 engine in
pusher configuration with a
reduction drive and a 115 to 130 cm (45 to 51 in) diameter two-bladed wooden propeller, depending on the model. The fuel tank capacity for all models is 9 litres (2.0 imp gal; 2.4 US gal). The aircraft is built predominantly from
aluminium and composites for lightness and can be quickly disassembled for ground transport. A
reserve parachute is integrated into the composite seat on the harness.[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]
