Packing the parachute
General ideas about packing parachute
Parachute packing aims to flawless opening of the chute when deployed. There are many
ways to pack your parachute and it will function in a correct way when opened. It is also
imperative that you pack your parachute in a small volume so it takes as little space as
possible when packed.
With use of VectorSave™10 launcher you also need to pack it to the right shape and size to
fit into the tube correctly. Tube has only small space for it and if it is pushed in so that it
spreads increasing the diameter it may cause parachute to stuck into the tube instead of
shooting out nicely.
Therefore we like to suggest you follow our recommendations when packing and after
some practice you will get it right every time.

Do not store the parachute packed in the tube
If you store your VectorSave™10 system for longer time do not leave parachute packed in
the tube. In our testing parachutes that have been packed inside the tube for days will take
much more time to open fully once deployed. Best practice is to test launch tube after last
flight of the day and store it by hanging it from shock cord.
Big benefit of VectorSave™10 launcher is that it can be reused over and over again without
extra cost. We recommend you take most out of it since it can be done without
consumables.
If tube cap is becoming loose over time
Should the cap fitting become loose over time you can use a piece of film tape or apply
thin layer of ca glue to the fitting to increase diameter just a bit to regain nice snug fit.
