BAILEY
QUATTRO TRIKE
New for 2008 the Bailey Quattro Trike is the
newest addition to our range. Based on a successful and
very capable French design, mated to our 4stroke175 engine,
the Quattro adds a new dimension to powered flight.
Ideal
for pilots who are unable to foot-launch owing to physical
complaints such as back or knee problems, pilots that
are un-easy with the weight of a 30Kg + paramotor on their
back, female pilots or indeed those that just want the
most relaxing flights possible with easy launches and
landings. Due to its rolling start, the Quattro can take-off
in nil wind conditions, which is normally on of the most
challenging aspects of foot-launching.
With
its design elements inspired from sand karts, the Quattro
not only looks unique with its tough, moulded bodywork
finished in eye catching red, but is also superbly comfortable
due to its sculpted bucket seat (with rear accessory pocket)
, adjustable harness, and adjustable wheelbase (130cm-180cm)
to cater for any pilot size. Its suspension (fibreglass)
provides optimum shock absorbance during taxing, take-off
and landing. Once strapped in, machine and pilot become
one which reflects in the feeling of a very direct flying
experience, whilst remaining safe and very controllable.
The
Quattro has a dry weight of 140lbs. XXkg and provides
60kg of thrust from the smooth and tractable Bailey 4stroke175
engine (electric start) fitted with a Helix 1.3m two blade
carbon-composite propeller. A large 22 litre fuel tank
gives the Quattro an amazing range of 8+ hours flying
(dependent on pilot weight, atmospheric conditions etc)
with the super-efficient 4stroke175.
Manufactured
from 304 stainless steel, the Quattro's design has been
tested to 6G, and its two-piece safety cage is easily
disassembled in less than 15 minutes with no special tools
required. Its packed size 70x70x130cm means that it can
be easily transported in an average hatchback car. When
assembled the Quattro has a track width of 142cm and is
150cm high and uses 40cmØ wheels with rubber tyres
BAILEY
QUATTRO PLUS TRIKE
Many customers have asked us if we could adapt the design
of the Quattto trike to allow there Bailey paramotor to
be bolted on to convert their paramotor into a fully fledged
trike, so this is our answer, the Quattro Plus.
The Quattro Plus shares the same fantastic
form as the Quattro, but has a ingenious mounting system
that utilises the hang bar sockets of our paramotor range
and the existing quick release pip-pins to convert from
paramotor to trike in a few minutes with no tools. Simply
remove your paramotor harness, hang bars and fuel tank
and then attach the dry break coupling from your motor
to the Quattro Plus 22 litre tank and you are ready to
launch.
Please
note that the Quattro Plus is only suitable for Bailey
Aviation paramotors, not any other design of paramotor.
