I searched this, but didn't really find what I'm looking for. If I wanted to use dual parachutes from a single rocket body (as opposed to two sections connected by long cord), do I have to do anything special to minimize risk of entanglement? Obviously,I could simply use one 'chute, but the design I'm playing with (I call it Binary Star) would seem a logical candidate for dual 'chutes:
I'd like to put an 18" chute in both tubes, which based on my RockSim model, ought to give it a fairly easy rate of decent, but are large enough to not be totally without merit if one fails. Thoughts?
