When in doubt... build hell-for-stout!
Over the weekend I tried to fold the parachute and pack it into the BT50 body tube for my X-Wing Alpha.... not looking good. It's a 12" Top Flight Nylon Chute.
Issue is where they fold the bottom of the chute and stitch it together. Way too bulky.
What are my options? Keep in mind I am launching from an altitude of about 8,200 feet. Not much air up here.
Should I build my own chute?
As always, your comments and advice are much appreciated.
