Dino Chutes Spinning Parachute 36 inch Orange/Yellow 1.7 oz Ripstop Nylon

The Dino Chutes Helicopter Parachute is a novel design that provides a very dramatic descent with its spinning profile. Your rockets will definitely get noticed when using this parachute!

Constructed of pastel yellow and orange micro-squared ripstop nylon fabric, the Helicopter Parachute comes with a swivel already attached to aid in keeping the main riser line from getting twisted.

Vortex type parachutes like this design provide some advantages over the typical hexagonal or octagonal shaped parachutes.

• They generally are considered to have a higher drag coefficient than polygonal parachutes with the same amount of area
• They pack much smaller than polygonal parachutes that provide the same drag, thus you’ll have more room in your rocket
• The opening shock is much less than a polygonal shaped parachute
• These types of parachutes are very stable which means that there is typically much less oscillation than polygonal parachutes
