Default RE: Drogue Chute

ORIGINAL: Patrick Frost


I had a Details 4 scale chute deploy in flight on my F-100 and the chute popped right off. Never found the chute I now use the Details 4 Scale AutoChute II system and it works great! I would recommend it to anyone.
Patrick, I'm assuming this is 1/7 scale...or thereabouts? Would you be kind enough to post a little more information and pictures on how the chute is stored and triggered? Dan's site lists the parts as, "Package includes 4 slot scale parachute with hardware, molded fiberglass chute housing, molded carbon fiber doors with tube hinges and closure blocks. Chute is available separately." But I couldn't see much more than that. I've been pleased with the stuff I've used from them in the past and am interested in this component.
