Parachute folding
•
Always fold on a clean and dry surface. Wrap Skycat parachute cloth
around the parachute so that
black side faces out
.
•
If launcher stays loaded for over two months, it is recommended to refold
the parachute. This can decrease deployment distance in an emergency.
•
Opale Paramodels parachutes can come with a red bag attached. The
bag is not needed with Skycat parachute launcher and
should be
removed
.

Extension cord and parachute shroud lines
Optional extension cord (also called “shock cord”) can be added in between
parachute and copter. It reduces the risk of parachute entanglement and
stabilizes descent.
Fruity Chutes IFC-48-SUL allows parachute shroud lines to be folded securely
between the parachute folds, reducing the risk of entangling. Extension cord is
folded into the launcher, below the parachute.
When using an Opale Paramodels parachute, parachute shroud lines cannot be
folded between the parachute folds. Shroud lines and extension cord are folded
into the launcher, below the parachute package.
