How much do you set the brakes? As in the same as the a lines, b lines, or what? Can you get a very clean and fast opening without setting them?

[Mihawkler]

@gliderpilotB i don't set the breaks at all...doesn't make sense, since there is nobody to "unset" and steer them..even if you have a RC base jumper he would hold the toggles constantly, so you can't actually set them...of course, you could control the amount of forward speed by setting your breaks..

Wow Nice man, how did you find out how to do this?

Hey... me here again... Any new videos coming?

[gliderpilotB]

Well with mine I need to set the brakes or else it doesn't open at all. It might be because the fabrics a little heavy and falls almost the same rate as the jumper when it's compacted. I have to set them about the same length as the c's. I'm tryin to think of a way to get them automatically release at the right time.

@gliderpilotB True...
