Reflex S
# Reflex S

The Reflex S is a French paramotor that was designed by Dominique Cholou and produced by Reflex Paramoteur of Chatou for powered paragliding. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.

## Design and development

The "S" was designed to comply with the European microlight regulations. It features a paraglider-style wing, single-place accommodation and a single Simonini Racing 25 hp (19 kW) engine in pusher configuration with a 2.38:1 ratio reduction drive and a 115 cm (45 in) or 123 cm (48 in) diameter three-bladed composite propeller. The fuel tank capacity is 10 litres (2.2 imp gal; 2.6 US gal).

As is the case with all paramotors, take-off and landing is accomplished by foot. Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw.
