This post is to determine how much interest there is in RC skydiver plans and photos. I have detailed plans and photos of the parachute and bag, jumper himself and clothing. Everything has been designed in Auto-Cad. The parachute is a para-foil design. Depending on the response, I will make all of this available.
Thanks, Charlie
UPDATE:I
This is a photo of the jumper. I'm currently cleaning up the drawings and photo's. They will be here soon. Keep watching.
UPDATE:II
Sorry for the delay. Holidays! All drawings are ready, photo's are done, web page 25% complete. Thanks for your patience.
UPDATE: III

I would like to get on the band wagon for the R/C Parachute plans. I built one a long time ago but have since lost the plans. Mine was made from a plastic trash bag and cut with holes and slots to provide some streeing capabilities. never really work great, but did come down nice. The doll hanging below used 2 channels with the arms directly attached to the servos to pull on the back chute risers to provide control.
