I got my 10' black and yellow ringsail parachute this week (should be listed as sold in post #1.) It is a work of art! I've always thought ringsail chutes looked the most NASA-ish of chutes, and this will be used with a rocket on a memorial flight to celebrate the life of a past prefect and the guy who really got me going in HPR and making motors.

Thanks Buddy for the great deal on the chute,


Tony

For some light reading on ringsail chutes:
https://airborne-sys.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/aiaa-1999-1700_evolution_of_the_ringsail.pdf
Includes exciting info such as "The anticlastic curvature in the meridian direction, however, is ever present in reducing the stress as a p*r / 2 type expression."
 
Buddy, do you still have the 5ft Standard Royal Blue and Flo Orange with super heavy lines, Retail: $50, my price $40? Glad to buy that one if you want to send me a PM.
