It is with a heavy heart that I am selling my brand new OpenPPG unit. The reason I am selling is that there are cross country flights that I really want to do that are more than an hour long, and flight time for OpenPPG is 40-50 minutes max (with 8 batteries, depending on wing, weight, weather, flying style, etc.)
As much as I’d like to keep it, I can’t afford two motors.
This unit is in perfect condition. I only flew it 5 times. I bought the prebuilt option so it was built by the OpenPPG team.
I am including 8 batteries, 700 watt charger, Dudek soft links, carabiners, OpenPPG branded Dudek Powerseat Comfort harness, adapters to connect 8 batteries, and a case for the cage pieces for easy transport.
Improvements I made:
-
Added a nylon rod and blue sheath to the controller wire to make it stronger and less likely to slip past the net and into the props.
-
Added eyelets to the sides to more effectively hook the netting.
It’s everything you need to fly immediately other than the glider.
It cost me:
OpenPPG unit with prebuilt option: $3600
OpenPPG branded Dudek Powerseat Comfort harness: $445
8 batteries: $2000 (after shipping)
700 watt charger: $250
Case for cage pieces: $50
Dudek soft links: $25
Carabiners: $45
Adapters for 8 batteries: Time and effort
Total cost I paid: $6,415
I am selling this complete system for $5500 (firm) plus shipping. I am located in Miami.
Send me a private message if you’re interested.
Such a thing of beauty. I’d totally buy it but just ordered the batch 4.
