Welcome to an intriguing journey where innovation meets the sky—transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. In this blog, we dive into the captivating world of DIY and adventure sports, focusing on a project that marries both: constructing a paraglider electric winch using components sourced from an electric bicycle, including a hub motor and a sensored ESC (Electronic Speed Controller).
This endeavor is not just about assembling parts; it’s an exploration of how we can repurpose everyday technology for extraordinary purposes. The heart of this project lies in the innovative use of an electric bicycle’s hub motor and the precision control offered by a sensored ESC. These components are typically engineered for ground mobility but, in this unique application, they find a new purpose—powering the ascent of paragliders into the open skies.
In the following video, you can view my building process, showcasing the challenges, triumphs, and the intricate details of constructing the electric winch:
