Skymaster Powered Parachutes of Wisconsin introduced their new Sky Quad
single place powered parachute at Sun N Fun. The design concept was to
build something that a person could easily get into the back of their pick
up truck or van, or could be taken apart quickly and easily for storage.
The Sky Quad weighs in at 160 lbs complete, can be disassembled or
reassembled in minutes using only conventional tools. It can be purchased
ready to fly or in kit form with the kit taking about a weekend to
complete.
Once ready to fly it uses conventional PPC foot style controls with a
steering wheel for ground handling, with a left hand lever throttle
system. Suspension is provide by a torsional suspension system on all four
wheels.
It will be offered with a 27 or 40 hp engine, and various chutes and
can accommodate pilots up to 250 lbs.
