Complete RPS-950, Attachment clamps, Bridle and Rip Cord. The canopy is manufactured to a standard high quality parachute manufacturing practices. The construction is the same on all our parachutes, skydiving parachutes, emergency parachutes for pilots and ultralight parachutes. The RPS features kevlar reinforced upper and lower lateral bands, and utilizes a 20' 9000 lb. type XX bridle. The RPS is intended for staged but fast deployment.
Deployment is affected by means of a spring loaded pilot chute.
Deployment, at 60 mph is between 1.5 and 2 seconds. Deployment means the time from ripcord pull to a fully opened canopy. This system depends on the speed of your aircraft for inflation of the canopy. Whatever stretches your canopy and lines, pilot chute, drogue gun or whatever, your plane will have to move through the air in order for the canopy to inflate. At speeds of less then the stated above, the deployment is somewhat slower.
