LuvToFly 0 #6 November 11, 2007 It appears that some of those opening heights were less than regulation.

pinkfairy 0 #7 November 11, 2007 Quote It appears that some of those opening heights were less than regulation. Also, might want to look into Scott Miller's canopy control course What regulations? This is B.A.S.E! Nice toy, but would be even more fun if the canopy was steerable. It looked like a human in a scary way a couple of times there. Ouch!Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #9 November 11, 2007 No slider and short lines. I loved the "oops" when the first one bounced. I guess some things translate in any language. Needs more reactive steering.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's supposed to be steerable by way of the RC remote - If so, with mixed results.

councilman24 37 #16 November 12, 2007 I surprised how well the thing opens. Better than the bed sheet I put on my G.I Joe (the 12" kind) in about 1968 when I tossed it off the 3rd story of the grade school fire escape. I'm old for my age.

Duplo_82 0 #17 November 12, 2007 Hey guys, HAUSSE invited me to told you about PACO and answer your questions. OK, I try it !!! All guys on the video are skydivers too and after making this video we all wanna do some f****** BASE Jumps !!!!! It´s really fun, not only for kids. This jumps were the very first we made. Our plane is not ready yet, so we have to toss him from the building. 80 meters. We had some problems with his arms. He´s completely steerable, but the way was to short and the canopy doesn´t move. Last weekend I rebuild him and now he works like a real one. The weather is very bad, so we can´t do any jumps. We have to wait. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duplo_82 0 #18 November 12, 2007 Quote i want one are these things really for sale? It´s not yet for sale, but we try it. In Germany there were so many guys who wanna buy him, that we thought to produce him. Do you know PARATEC??? German parachute manufacture. The canopy iss a modell of the new RAGE technology !!! Don´t ask me about Square feet or canopy size haha, i don´t know it !!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
