Your guide:
The designer and the main brain behind the SCOUT. Miroslav has a lot of experience with adventure flying. In 2013 he strapped a sleeping bag to his paramotor and has flown +1000km around Slovakia.
In 2016 he won the Icarus Trophy Adventure Division flying more than 1900 km unsupported across the US.
Since then, he got addicted to paramotor adventure flying and guided 6 seasons in Iceland and numerous other trips in Slovakia, Italy, Romania, Italy, and Spain.
In 2022 Miroslav organised the Wigman Challenge – a unsupported paramotor adventure crossing the most beautiful and challenging parts of Unites States.
Miroslav speaks fluent German, English, Hungarian, Czech, of course Slovak and can ask for a beer in Spanish.
Another guide is Aaron, the guy from warehouse who probably made all machines you will be flying on this trip.

What is Paramotor Road Trip?
To maximize our paramotor experience we will drive wherever the weather is the best to fly. We fly in the evening and then the same spot at sunrise again but other direction. During the day we will drive the van and trailer to the next spot.
We have many spots pre-selected and we will choose the next one based on actual weather. To maximize paramotor experience means we need to sacrifice our comfort a little:
- We cannot book accommodation in advance as we decide where to stay based on the actual short-term forecast. Good news is it will be off season so we have good chances to improvise.
- Driving a lot during the days in our Mercedes Viano 8-seater van. Yes, you would wish to have a but more rest.
- The morning flights are pretty cold and the high mountain flights are very cold… the high mountain morning flights are f*
What to bring with you?
- glider,
- your reserve
- helmet (ideally with radio),
- your flying instruments
- warm clothes for flying, gloves
- power bank
- camera is a must
- camping gear, if the adventure require it(consutlt before adventure)
How to get your paramotor there?
That is the tricky part when traveling for PPG adventures. Taking your paramotor onto plane is always a risky business and you may end up being grounded.
Here are your options:
- rent one of our SCOUT paramotors. This is a great opportunity to properly and throughly test the SCOUT. After first flight you will fall in love with it for sure. Flying 15-30 hours on it during the adventure trip you will not want any other machine any more. Should you decide to order a new scout afterwards then you will have half of the rental costs off your purchasing price.
- place an order for a brand new SCOUT and have it delivered the destination. Fly the best adventure of your life on your new dream machine! After the trip, we will take it Slovakia and clean it, pack it and ship to your home.
- ship your paramotor to SCOUT headquarters and we take it for you. We may arrange the pick up at lower cost because we have good deals with FedEx and other shipping companies as we ship a lot. You are responsible for packing it properly. We will load your paramotor into the trailer and drive it to the to Iceland. You enjoy a comfortable flight to the destination with light luggage only. After the trip, we will take it to Slovakia, pack and ship to your home again. You pay the parcel service only. Transport in the trailer from SCOUT HQ to destination and back is free of charge.

Our trips are NOT exclusive for SCOUT pilots only! Pilots with other machines are very welcome to join us. We have always had great times and brands and colors do not matter.

- Pilot who orders a trip with rental of a SCOUT (4 paramotors available)
