Abstract
Electrification of an already-existing Paraglider, an idea that is currently novel in Pakistan but is commonly
used abroad. The rapidly expanding aviation sector has embraced all-electric smaller aircrafts by producing
new models and converting some of the current models to electric, similar to the effort detailed in this
project. Due to the ease of availability of either of the two technologies stated, the project would be focused
on equipment already on hand at the sponsoring company, M/S Technocrafts®, specifically lithium polymer
(Li-Po) battery and brushless DC motor technology. The EPPG consists of a safe, airworthy paraglider trike
that can be used on a daily basis without the need for a license or special maintenance
