Floats18 0 #1 December 8, 2005 Yo, I posted some build pictures a couple of weeks ago; Here's my mini parachute in action. Operation Carebear Insertion! I need to trim the lines a little bit but it flies straight!

popsjumper 2 #9 December 8, 2005 Cool dude...but just as a matter of safety...are you IAD certified? And did you teach the bear how to PLF? My reality and yours are quite different.

GogglesnTeeth 6 #10 December 8, 2005 I'm thinking.... Cat, balcony, IAD launch. Of course, get video because without video, it didn't really happen. Goggles and Teeth "You fall like a greased safe!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tr027 0 #12 December 8, 2005 Well, Bob has been wanting to get his his jump certificate for a while now. Of course, you dont even need a scale 5 sq ft ram-air, you could use a tandem drogue if he prefers rounds. Or to stay with the bear, attach an RC car steering servo with spindle to his back to remotely drive the steering. If you use 2 servos you could get a flare."The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

pBASEtobe 0 #13 December 8, 2005 I'm curious, did it get any forward movement (i.e. did it start flying) or did it just go straight down? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Floats18 0 #14 December 8, 2005 No, I'm not IAD... I'm a lowly coach I guess the carebare can sue my ass then, but I think he's a happy carebear. My group and I developed a RC guy that is going to pilot the thing... the presentation is next week so I'll be sure to get VIDEO It did fly forward, but I think im going to increase the angle of attack so I can get some wicked swoops --- and give them wings so they may fly free forever DiverDriver in Training Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrown 26 #25 December 9, 2005 Try having one of your kids jump it off the roof ! Teach the kid to flare for all he/she's worth and maybe they can even swoop it across the yard. Their little pals will be SOOOO jealous ! You'll need to have the little brats sign waivers though. Send vids of the kids to skydivingmovies.com Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !
