I got to fly in one of these things, and I knew I just had to have one! I currently hold a Hang 1 Pilot rating, working on a Hang 2, and my instructor can teach trikes, so instructions good, but I had some questions. Its a single seater, and its going to have a Single-Surface hang glider for its wing, probably a Wills Wing Falcon. I am just curious on what kind of power I'll need to get myself airborne. And also prop sizing and choices. I have absolutely no idea. I'm just starting aerospace engineering track at Embry-Riddle, but I'm Astro so less aero stuff for me in terms of education. And we're still on the basics of design process and engineering and such.

Any help is appreciated.
