Mk101 H.A.L.O. Parachute

The Mk101 High Altitude Low Open Parachute was 'procured' from a local surplus store for a rock bottom price. Made from bottom of the line fibers and a hand made altimeter the H.A.L.O. parachute will wait till the last minute before deployment to prolong that 'I can taste my lunch' feeling all the way to the surface.

\'the H.A.L.O. parachute will wait till the last minute before deployment to prolong that 'I can taste my lunch' feeling all the way to the surface.\'

That made me chuckle.

Nice work with the parachute, the Digital Pattern is nice.

because the default 'I can taste my lunch' feeling all the way to the surface that the 500m chute gave you wan\'t good enough

[bperry]

I didnt describe it very well, the default chute, releases around 30k and then deploys at around 500-700feet.

when a chute releases it will add a small amount of drag slowing down your pod, then when it deploys it\'s drag increases to the max drag

this chute releases AND deploys at ~400-500 feet.

how much drag did you put on it?

[bperry]

it uses the default drag.

[CarolRawley]

does it manage to slow the capsule down?

[bperry]

yeah, I havent accidently killed a kerbal with it yet.

[CarolRawley]

wow. This parachute must seriously be epic.

I give it the Thrillmaster stamp of Approval.
