You’ve probably seen these amazing flying machines and wondered what the buzz is about. Paramotoring is growing fast, and the Miniplane stands out as the lightest, easiest, and most reliable option.
Andrea Cecchetto at the 12th FAI World Paramotor Championships held in Chambley, France, Andrea Cecchetto won Gold in the solo foot-launched with Miniplane LR frame paired with the classic Top 80 engine.

Discover Miniplane
Miniplane LR (Long Range): The current flagship replacement for the classic frame. It transitions the machine into a modern, CNC-machined frame with a distinct flat-back geometry to protect the pilot’s spine during a hard landing. It features an aerodynamic, drop-shaped rigid profile to manage larger, ultra-efficient props safely.
The New Miniplane Paramotors
Miniplane FR (Free Ride / Flex Range): Introduced alongside the LR, the FR features the same updated flat-back CNC frame geometry but retains a more flexible, traditional cage construction for weight savings and classic assembly.
The Original Lightweight Icon
Per Il Volo Miniplane was founded in Italy by Diego Cecchetto and introduced the world’s first purpose-built paramotor engine, the Top 80, in 1989. Before Miniplane, pilots relied on heavy, converted industrial or go-kart engines. Miniplane also engineered to pair with Vittorzi Moster 185
Miniplane revolutionized the sport by prioritizing a radically simple concept:
light weight, low vibration, and maximum fuel efficiency.
The Top 80 engine utilized a compact 80cc displacement paired with a geared reduction drive
A stark contrast to the heavy belt-driven configurations of its competitors
By turning the propeller in the opposite direction of the engine crank
the mechanical design almost entirely cancels out engine torque effect, preventing the machine from twisting the pilot into a turn during acceleration.
