Hey guys!
I was thinking of making a RC skydiver, but I gave up sewing the parachute.
Is there a place where to buy a really cheap rc parachute? Everything I found was
too expensive. I live in Czech rep. and a guy makes only the parachute for about $210.
Please let me know if there is a cheaper option.
Thank you!

The price is about the same as any of ours are - You must know it takes many hours and costly materal to make these so to answer your question - You will have to make one yourself or buy a ready made and cost will be about the same plus any shipping cost

There is no cheap time and materal any more

Gozer1; A good made chute is not cheap and the price you have mentioned is that in your money evaluation or is that what you found out from the USA , you might get lucky where some one would sell you a good used chute that they would be willing to sell . I make chutes but they are all priced at $210.00 USA dollars. Will inguire around and see if I can find one foryou.

I can sew the chute and have two plans now but wonder if there is a better design to consider for us DIY guys. Suggestions?

Thanks in advance

We met two guys of the Czech Republic at the German rc skydiving Championships in Heringen this year ,
they are selling chutes for the same price about $ 210 .
The labor cost over there is 1/3 of that of the EU or the US so finding a "new chute" Cheaper is not realistic, or you buy crap !
Look at some modelling sites in China and you find one cheaper "Only don't expect that it will fly like the EU or US stuff "
The other option is buy a used one !

Thank you everyone !
I just wanted to know whether I checked all the web sellers.
I will figure something out... 

there is a web site rcchute.com I think this may help with your cheap suite.

Looks like the Jumper and suit and chute pack are from RC Skydiver in Ohio . Am I righr and poss the chute also

Paul Fannin has made a few Chutes that have turned out nice, you will have to rig it yourself and tie the lines but I can see what he would charge to sew you one up if you want? Let me know. There are enough people in this that I am sure you can get someone to give you the measurements for the rigging.

Hi Don,I have made molds,templates,etc from many moons of work.there may be simular products
out there, but these are our design.



Thanks for asking

Thanks Jim

Jumpin Jack is nothing more than a knockoff off of the RCSkydiving Micro Jumper. I know because I designed the Micro Diver from the ground up. If you want an original and the BEST on the market buy from RCSkydiving.

Thats what I thought- Thanks for clearing that up- Dave

I know it won't do any good but I just wrote a lettter to the editor of AMA Magazine. Someone needs to invite this guy to the next jump ralley, I will pay for the plane ticket![>:]

Plannin a cookout?

Hello again. I tried to sew it, but I had no plan, so it´s not working as I expected.
So plan B is: "has anyone got a parachute that he doesn´t use and could sell to me?"
Thanks for help.
