The pilot controls thrust via a hand-held throttle and steers using the wing's brake toggles or stabilo steering, weight shifting or a combination of the three. It is identical to paragliding, except it is powered, so the use of an elevation or thermals to ascend are not required. Paramotor wings have evolved specifically for use with power propulsion, as compared with free flight "paraglider" wings. Such wings are typically designed for a higher speed and may incorporate a "reflex" profile to aid stability in pitch, an idea taken from hang gliders of the 1980s and developed and pioneered by British designer Mike Campbell-Jones. Paramotor wings typically use trimmers to adjust the angle of attack of the wing to either slow it down or speed it up in flight. Trimmed out allows the pilot to achieve maximum speed, while trimmed in allows for slower speeds optimized for launching and landing. Generally, the trimmers act on the rear of the wing. The angle of attack can also be adjusted by a pulley-style system, which is activated via a bar pushed by the pilot's feet, called a flumbus. This system generally acts on the leading edge of the wing. This system is only activated in-flight, and by default is not activated on takeoff or landing. Due to the torque effect of a motor, this can cause the glider to turn, especially under hard acceleration. Trimmers can be adjusted unequally to counter this effect. The most difficult aspect of paramotoring is controlling the wing (paraglider) on the ground . This control is both during launch and upon landing. Initial training in becoming a paramotor pilot involves managing the wing in the air from the ground without the motor. This process is called kiting and is the most complicated and important step in the process. Once kiting the wing on the ground is mastered then the motor is added to the process to practice with the weight of the paramotor included. A typical paramotor will weigh on average around 50 lb (23 kg) with some models as light at 40 lb (18 kg) and some models as high as 75 lb (34 kg). The size of the paramotor wing and engine are dependent on the weight of the pilot  .
