    As a former parachute rigger in the US Air Force I got to work with the 3 essential aerial delivery methods, I would love to work on a bigger scale with you guys, set a point of impact on the drop zone and make a competition, who can make it closer to P.I. That was awesome, you brought back so many memories, good times!

      It seems like an extraction chute would be appropriate for these airdrops.
      Me and a fellow USAF guy used to fly our big trainer RC planes at the Ft Dix parade ground years ago...we would drop little plastic army men with parachutes, trying to land them within a circle. We both used a side-opening trap door on the bottom of fuselage, operated by servo.

    Guinea Pig was my first FT build right after Peter's video. GP is still my favorite FT plate. Flies on rails, hauls a ton, lands easily, hard to stall and just keeps going. I put a 3/16" x1/2" wood spar in the wing and it's indestructible. Even made out of dollar tree foam board

    I learned model aircraft piloting in an indoor club, well, the master pilot had to take back controls a lot of time in order to avoid crashing into the walls of the (tiny) gymnasium. Needles to say I did a lot of single point landings before getting to fly correctly in a tiny closed space. Outdoors flying might be easier to familiarize with the process, but here in France, rc outdoors flying is highly regulated since the drone craze 6 years ago

    I think the umbrella would have stayed upright in the fall if you removed all the fabric on the top of the umbrella, say in a 10 inch circle at the very top of the umbrella instead of making a few tiny hole. Or in the future you can get pretty nice parachutes from model rocket companies online fairly cheap.

  • @rosedruid
    @rosedruid Рік тому

    Simplest parachutes to construct with high reliability are made by cutting a circle or hex or octagon shape of cloth with a loose weave to avoid needing to cut holes (maybe one in Center) and then match it with a netting or lace material. Sew an attachment nylon or string to the Center of the mesh circle and stitch the edges of the 2 circles together. The mesh can’t tangle and opens every time.

  • @markperquin5579
    @markperquin5579 Рік тому

    Parachute fabric (we call it F111) is strong, light weight, very compact when folding and has no porosity. It is slippery and it's used for a lot of products besides parachutes as f.e. transfer and pullup stocking aid/ tool. The fabric is a little transparent.

I made a 9000mah 4s batteries out of 18650 sells and I can fly almost an hr on that, at half throttle😁. Got the punjet at the same time but I have totally forgot about it, so maby it's time to revisit it 😊. Thank you for all the good content and all the things you do for the flying community.
