So I’ve been spending a lil while now messing around and making backpacks , which has been fun. My latest pack has been designed to be insanely comfortable (like overkill comfy), while still being insanely light but sturdy…it’s coming a long great…the concept was to jam as much luxury into my gear as possible while still having a base weight under 8lbs. I kid you not I have a theater in my pack. I can project movies. is it ridiculous? yes. but it’s been a test of how much can you cram into a super light set up. I have a ton of luxury items and I’m still under 8 lbs XD but that is not what this thread is about.
I’m about to begin designing an even crazier , some what silly, yet very awesome peace of equipment. The idea is a Land, Air and Sea vehicle.
A sturdy yet fairly light 2 person pack raft can be rigged up with a fan and ran as a fan boat, or be paddled traditionally.
You can then deflate and store away the raft, and hook attach wing(parachute) onto the fan motor and the harness… and you have a para motor capable of flight !!
the beams and screen around the fan blades and the blades themselves can be disassembled and stored away more compactly.
There will be a bicycle capable of being taken apart and put together with a fair amount of ease (maybe 15 minutes or so to assemble) and will be designed to be able to use the engine from the para-motor to make it into a little dirt bike.
Ridiculous? yes. Am i in CAD making models right now…Yup! Haha.
This will obviously take some years to complete but I’m serious about building one
