Parachute

To successfully made the parachute we needed to:
1

Make the necessary calculations

2

Build parachutes

3

Test the parachutes and decide which one is the best

   The parachute is made out of ripstop nylon, has a circular shape and 32cm of diameter. The parachute is also made out of  8 equidistant suspension lines  with about 1,1x the diameter and it also has a special piece that will solve some tanglement issues.

   The shape diameter and resting specifications of the parachute were chosen after an extensive selection process that attested it’s integrity, also, after making and testing many parachutes models, we decided to use the circular shape.


 

   All the parachute assembly procedure was headed by Ricardo Palma, who is the responsible for this task.
