Flyke
THIS ONE NEVER GETS OLDChoose your options
This unique vehicle never gets old. It combines the idea of a bicycle with flying, creating the Flyke. With this ingenious vehicle, you can not only fly, but also ride comfortably along the road. Therefore, you have more mobility on the ground before take-off and after landing.
This ultra-modern two-stroke engine is characterized by its low power-to-weight ratio. The powerful engine can also be relied on in continuous operation. The well-thought-out design relies on a liquid cooling system, which guarantees optimal heat dissipation from the combustion chamber. Especially during cruise flying, this engine impresses with its quiet engine running.
1,25m propeller
The 1.25 m propeller from Helix Carbon, perfectly matched to the engine, is made of unbreakable, carbon fiber and meets the highest safety standards. Compared to other propeller manufacturers, the Helix Carbon propellers are particularly characterized by their smooth running and the much more efficient blade profile.
Airbox
The airbox is available on all Polini engines. It filters the air and dampens the intake noise extremely effectively.
Exhaust with Helmholtz
Typically for Polini engines, the resonance exhaust is specially designed for flight operations. A Helmholtz resonator developed by Fresh Breeze ensures even more performance. The exhaust is multi-part and connected by break-proof springs to decouple the vibrations from the exhaust. The shapely muffler reduces engine noise to a minimum.
Transmission
Due to its design, the fully enclosed gearbox is low-maintenance and almost wear-free. The reduction ratio of 2.8: 1 is designed so that the maximum engine efficiency is developed at 8000 rpm. The centrifugal clutch is integrated in the gearbox.
Cooler
The streamlined cooler supports the liquid cooling system in its work and guarantees thermal stability. This means that the engine temperature is optimal even for long climbing phases.
Fuel pump
A small, light fuel pump supplies the carburetor with fuel. The pump does not need any electricity at all because it takes advantage of the changing pressure conditions in the crankcase. This small feature enables the use of deep-lying tanks, which has a positive effect on the center of gravity of our aircraft.
Engine unit
In this configuration, the engine is designed for the "Pro SportiX" system. The entire periphery of the engine is taken up by the engine frame.
Electronics
A generator with a power of 80 W at 5500 rpm is installed in the engine and is supported by a battery. This electrical system enables advantages such as electrical starters, electricity for radio etc.
Carburetor
The slide carburetor prepares the mixture for optimal combustion. This carburetor concept entails a linear increase in power. With this carburetor, the pilot has very sensitive control over the engine.
This engine is particularly characterized by its smooth engine running.
The low-vibration running behavior protects pilot/man and machine when practicing paramotoring.
Balance shaft
The particularly quiet running is achieved by a balance shaft that compensates the moving masses. The greatly reduced vibrations have a positive effect on the durability of all assemblies.

Flash starter
The flash starter, revised by Polini with a reinforced spring and housing, enables a comfortable engine start. The starter spring buffers the energy required for starting during the tightening process and releases it suddenly when the maximum is reached. As result, the engine starts immediately.
Cooling fan
Thermal stability is achieved by the cooling fan. The streamlined engine cowling directs the air flow, generated by the radial fan, through the cooling fins to the cylinder and cylinder head.
Frame
Pilots with a body height of 160 cm - 195 cm can easily be placed in the length-adjustable frame.
Articulated steering
On the ground the Flyke is steered by an articulated system. The pilot has his hands free for the glider and can leave his feet on the pedals or footrests. In bicycle mode, the steering is operated via the right-handed handlebar - during takeoff, the Flyke is also indirectly controlled from the wing.
Rear axle
A GRP leaf spring is used as a spring element on the rear axle.
Frontwheel
The sprung-suspended front wheel also serves as propulsion on the bike path. The power is transmitted via a chain to a Nexus 7-speed gearbox.
Seat
The light sear is not only comfortable, it also provides air ventilation. The packed paraglider fits perfectly behind it.
Wing suspension
In this aircraft, the wing suspension is implemented with two flexible rods. The lift assistance is integrated in the push rods and makes the starting process much easier - with its aid, an increased pull is exerted on the A-risers during the takeoff. The device can be adapted to different pilot weights by simply shifting the hang point of the wing.
Brakes
The Flyke has two independent braking systems for the front and rear axles for maximum safety on the ground.
UL rescue system
You can choose between the Magnum 250 ballistic rescue or a large number of throwing rescues systems.
