Kobra Snake

The Snake

The Snake is the ideal choice for all those pilots who are looking for a reliable and high-quality flight experience. This product represents the embodiment of our vision of this sport: one of the lightest paramotors on the market, boasting one of the highest weight/power ratios in its category. The Snake offers an unparalleled combination of comfort and maneuverability, together with virtual absence of torque effect, quick accelerator response and silent operation; also, its dependable carburetion and overall reliability make of it the ideal choice even for less attentive meticulous users. In other words, this paramotor combines all the advantages of the most sophisticated, light and performing engine on the market, with a chassis manufactured in Spain, a land of world champions! Last but not the least, we are proud to offer what in our opinion is the best looking paramotor on the market!

• The double external protective ring offers the highest resistance to compression in the hardest takeoff scenarios, and even in case of impact with the ground. The lowest section is in shape of a skid, an important security element in takeoff and landing phases. The engine support, incorporating silent blocks and safety belt, is manufactured in Ergal with digitally controlled techniques to ensure the best robustness and quality.
• The wing supports are made in Avional anodized aluminum with CNC manufacturing process, and have been specifically studied not to interfere with the pilot"s movements. The Snake caters for 60 to 110 Kilos or even more (in case of flight with a trike, for instance), and features an innovative system allowing a very precise weight balance.
• The Snake"s unique geometry and its low pivoting attachment allows for a very instinctive, active and fun piloting style, very similar to free flight. The torque effect is very well compensated, offering a very comfortable flight at all thrust levels.
• With its 14 liters capacity, the Snake"s PVC reservoir ensures the range needed for all your flights and adventures.
• The Snake"s exclusive accelerator handle, robust yet comfortable and precise, is designed to exploit at best the power of the Sky100. It also allows the pilot to set the throttle to a fixed level using only one hand.
• The Snake"s standard propeller is a three-blade carbon unit built by Helix specifically for the Sky100: it features low consumption, great thrust and reduced noise level. The 18 cm difference in the diameters of the propeller and the security ring offer a good safety margin in case of impact. Optionally, the Snake can mount a two-blade wooden propeller (125cm in diameter).

  The Harness 

• The harness is one of the most important components of any paramotor: it"s where the pilot and the frame meet, and it is responsible for the in-flight comfort and for transmitting sensations to the pilot. For these reasons, KobraPPG has put much attention in the design of the Snake's harness, by using the best materials and adding outstanding finishes and new solutions: with a lateral buckle system, two side pockets, the thick shoulder pads and wide array of fitting adjustments, it ensures the best comfort in all phases of flight. Finally, all our harnesses come with an integrated folding system, making it compact and easy to handle when transported or not in use.

• Our new exclusive removable lower container allows the placement of the emergency parachute under the pilot, just like in free flight; a second storage section is available to carry all you need for your adventures! This design is compatible with our single-seat trike.

• The Engine
   
• Sky100, the most technically accomplished paramotor engine on the market, is the only in its category to feature a liquid cooling system. This makes not only makes the engine more efficient, reliable and long lived, but also easier to use: no more limitations given by hot temperature and weather, and no more restraint in using full power for a prolonged time. The power range of the Sky100 is particularly broad, and its smooth output makes it very easy to fly leveled without irregularities or hiccups. The throttle is electrically activated, allowing an outstanding control precision.
• The Sky100 uses the latest innovations in technologies and materials such as the Ergal, and its high level finishes provide a visually appealing look.
• The Sky100"s cooling system, based on automatic circulation of liquid (no pump is used), requires basically no maintenance: a pre-flight check will be sufficient for many hours of intense usage.
• The Sky100"s particular carburetor with only one regulation, makes of the Snake one of the most regular, stable and simple to calibrate paramotors on the market: you do not need to be an expert mechanic to make the most out of you engine's potential!
