A powered paraglider trike landing
Lightweight carts or "trikes"
(called "quads" if they have four wheels) can also be mounted on powered
paragliders for those who prefer not to, or are unable to, foot launch. Some
are permanent units.
In the United States, if the aircraft meets
the ultralight definitions, no license is required. In the UK, trike-mounted
paramotors are still classified as 'self-propelled hang-gliders' if the
"performance of the aircraft remains equivalent to one that can be
foot-launched." [7]. However, even in these countries, if the machine has
two seats it is no longer an ultralight. In the US such a craft would be governed
under the Sport Pilot rules and regulated as a light sport aircraft powered
parachute which requires an aircraft N-number and pilots must be licensed.

Safety and regulations
Research estimates that the activity is
slightly safer (per event) than riding motorcycles and more dangerous than
riding in cars.[3] The most likely cause of serious injury is body contact with
a spinning propeller. The next most likely cause of injury is flying into
something other than the landing zone.[4] Some pilots carry a reserve parachute
designed to open in as little as 50 ft (15 m).
The lack of established design criteria for
these aircraft led the British Air Accidents Investigation Branch to conclude
in 2007 that "Only when precise reserve factors have been established for
individual harness/wing combinations carrying realistic suspended masses, at
load factors appropriate to the maneuvers to be carried out, can these aircraft
be considered to be structurally safe"[5]

Regulations
In most countries, paramotor pilots operate
under simple rules that spare them certification requirements for pilot and
gear. Those laws, however, limit where they can fly—specifying that pilots
avoid congested areas and larger airports to minimize risk to other people or
aircraft. U.S. pilots operate under Federal Aviation Administration regulation
Part 103.
Associations
In the U.S., the sport is represented
primarily by the US Powered Paragliding Association (USPPA)[note 1] which also
holds an exemption allowing two-place training by appropriately certified
tandem instructors. The US Ultralight Association (USUA) and Aero Sports
Connections (ASC) also offer some support.
Instructors in the U.S. are primarily
represented and certified by the United States Powered Paragliding
Association(USPPA). Other organizations include the Professional Association of
Powered Paragliding Instructors (***PI).
噪声
相对于观察者的动力伞噪声取决于动力装置的距离，响度，频率和音质。大部分噪音来自螺旋桨，而缓慢的转速被认为是**安静的。飞行员可以通过将噪声敏感的区域保持在低功率状态来减轻其声音影响，将实际距离保持在**远的位置，并减少在该区域附近所花费的时间。
执照和培训
在美国，英国或许多其他国家，既不需要许可证，也不需要特定的培训。在没有特别规定的地方（例如墨西哥），只要飞行员在适当的情况下与当地官员合作，就可以容许滑翔伞飞行。[需要引用]在存在特别规定的国家（例如加拿**国，意大利和南非），飞行员必须由执照的教练进行飞行理论和实践方面的培训。一些需要正式认证的国家经常通过非**的超轻航空组织进行认证。
无论法规如何，如果没有经过适当培训，进行动力滑翔伞运动都是很危险的。
对于飞行员来说，要通过大多数组织的完整飞行员教学大纲，需要5到15天的时间，由于天气原因，这可能需要更长的日历时间。教学中使用了许多技巧，尽管大多数技巧包括让学生熟悉在地面上，通过牵引，小山丘或串列飞行时如何操纵机翼。
借助特殊装备，可以乘搭乘客（双人），但是大多数国家（包括美国）都需要某种形式的证明。
The term was first used by Englishman Mike
Byrne in 1980[1] and popularized in France around 1986 when La Mouette began
adapting power to the then-new paraglider wings.
Power plants are almost exclusively small
two-stroke internal combustion engines, between 80 cc and 350 cc, that burn a
mixture of gasoline and oil. These engines are favored for their quick high
r.p.m. thrust and low weight, using approximately 3.7 litres (1 US Gal.) of
fuel per hour depending on paraglider efficiency, the weight of unit plus
pilot, and flying weather conditions. At least one manufacturer is producing a
4-stroke model favored for its strong lower r.p.m. thrust and better fuel
efficiency. Electrically powered units also exist, though flight duration is
considerably limited on the battery's electrical capacity. Csaba Lemak created
the first electric PPG, flying it first on 13 June 2006.[2][3] Wankel rotary
engined paramotors are also available, but rare.

学习驾驶动力伞
在使用动力进行***飞行之前，您首先需要学习如何飞行机翼。
一旦掌握了这一点，您的讲师将转向动力单元，您将学习如何组装和拆卸动力单元（这是为了轻松运输，而不是进行大修整！），启动动力伞，控制油门并进行基本的日常维护。您的讲师还将解释扭矩和推力影响，并讨论安全问题。
然后将这两个要素放在一起，教您使用动力飞行。滑翔伞需要与飞行理论和气象知识相同的知识，并且由于使用引擎可以随意漫游，因此相当重视学习空中航行和导航。
驾驶动力伞不需要CAA许可证-但您仍然必须了解并遵守
