What's it all about?

The principal aim that underlined the Eggmotor development was the need for a simple, reliable and above all, affordable paramotor.

Take a humble 6.5hp industrial engine and transform it into a +12hp paramotor power unit capable of over 50kg thrust with a large propeller and reduction drive.

Bailey Egg Development

Recent developments by Bailey Aviation means that even more thrust is now available from the plucky little four stroke. Bespoke reduction drives, engine mount kits, carburettor and exhaust systems takes the Eggmotor into the next phase of viable paramotor design and performance.
