This will be the documentation of my Tripoli Rocketry Association Level 3 certification build of a Wildman Darkstar Extreme.
I will not begin this project until sometime in 2022.
Parachutes
2022-03-02
Parachutes for consideration in this build:
15' "X-Form" parachute form Aerocon Systems. Nominally for a 30-60 pound vehicle. There is well-documented use of this parachute in a 22 pound rocket.
Wildman Rocketry "Recon-60" is the stock, recommended parachute. Suitable for a 22 pound rocket.
8' Rocketman parachute is what was used in a Darkstar Extreme from another builder. That, along with a 2' Rocketman drogue.
Waitin on availability of the "X-Form" parachute, with details to follow.
