Hi all:

I´m from Mexico, so here you can´t get a comercial skydiver so i decided to build mine.

I´m scratch building my own skydiver but have some problems with measures. My dude is 18" tall, so he has plenty of room to install radio gear.

My problems start when i have to figure out how big the parafoil should be, i have read most of the comercial skydivers has 60" by 24" more or less, but its dude is 14" tall.

Question is what are the most adequate measures for my parachute?

what is the correct weight for my dude?.

I will appreciate any help.
