What is EXOMO Copilot?
EXOMO Copilot is the electric paramotor that redefines personal flight through clean and innovative technology. This unique and intelligent model offers a powerful paramotor experience with a thrust that exceeds 60 kg and a possible altitude gain of 1000 m. Equipped with a 15 kW (20 hp) brushless motor and a Lithium-Ion battery boasting a capacity of 4 kWh (70 Ah), the EXOMO Copilot blends efficiency with performance. Quiet by design, the EXOMO Copilot emits only the sound of its propeller in flight – think of it as a whisper in the early morning, measuring only 60 dB during level flight at 40 meters. With integrated AUTOPILOT mode, the machine maintains its altitude effortlessly, ensuring that every flight is as smooth as it is exhilarating…

Ecological Propulsion and Smart Technology
This electric paramotor is more than just an exciting way to fly – it’s a statement of eco-conscious engineering. The propulsion system, with its zero carbon emissions, no odor, minimal heat, and low vibration profile, offers an environmentally friendly alternative to gasoline paramotors. The intelligent design also includes several flight monitoring systems to ensure that temperature limits are never exceeded, ensuring maximum safety even when high power is demanded. For the eco-minded, a simple change to a green energy supplier, such as ENERCOOP, means that the entire machine can be completely decarbonized. The motor does not wear out, and its battery is not only 100% recyclable but also supports hundreds of cycles, proving that smart flight can also be sustainable…
Innovative Chassis and Onboard Electronics
The EXOMO Copilot takes design to the next level with its robust, lightweight chassis crafted from aluminum or titanium, promising durability and an attractive look. Paired with harness options that range from light to extra comfortable, this design ensures a tailored flight experience. At the heart of the user experience lies the crisp onboard electronics. The classic throttle handle incorporates a screen that displays the battery status and key flight data like altitude, flight time, climb rate, and the status of AUTOPILOT mode, whether in CRUISE or CLIMB – making it as engaging as it is practical.
Silent Flight and Optimized Propeller
A key aspect of the design is its focus on silent flight. The propeller, a lightweight, robust three-blade carbon model, is purposefully selected for its ability to provide maximum thrust at takeoff while keeping noise to a minimum. The machine’s propulsion system, coupled with a fully integrated Battery Management System (BMS) that secures charging and discharging, makes setting up flight as simple as plug & play. Charging from a standard socket takes about four hours, and the setup’s smart design even includes Bluetooth integration so that the battery’s status can be checked remotely – making flight preparation almost effortless…
Safety and Comfort in the Skies
Focused on offering more than just performance, the EXOMO Copilot ensures that every flight is safe and comfortable. The AUTOPILOT mode adds an extra layer of security by maintaining altitude autonomously, while the recommended use of reflex wings promotes auto-stability for graceful, controlled trajectories. The integration of multiple monitoring systems guarantees that temperature limits are respected, even if high power is drawn. This constant pursuit of quality, comfort, and innovative design makes the Copilot an appealing choice for pilots looking for both fun and reliability.
