Rocketeers
I am working on the design and implementation of a “train” of 3 parachutes.
“Trained means 3 chutes stacked on top of each other, largest, thru smallests vertically. I have a 36″, a 30″ and a 24″ chutes attached to a common riser.
Like a japanese Pagoda.
I have the riser going thru the center of the bottom chute (36″) thru the center of the middle chute (30″), terminating with the top chute (24″).
I have the chutes seperated by the diameter of the chutes.
i have deployment socks for each chute. I was thinking I may be better off having only one deployment sock with all 3 chutes in it. Also I was wondering about a deployment tube instead of a sock.
Has anyone tried anything similar, looking for advice and suggestions.
This is a 4″ Dia 45” long rocket with a H,I or J motor hopefully.
All advice welcome

We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
