High, Mid, and Low Power Rocket Parachutes
Rocketman Standard Parachutes
Our Standard Parachutes are the original Rocketman recovery chutes, designed for low, mid, and high-powered rockets. These parachutes combine simplicity, durability, and precision performance, making them a trusted choice for rocket recovery at every level.
Key Features:
-
Certification Ready: Preferred for Tripoli Rocketry Association (TRA) and National Association of Rocketry (NAR) Level 1, 2 and 3 certified flights.
-
Made from 1.1 oz low porosity ripstop nylon, engineered to withstand deployment forces without tearing. All seams are reinforced with ½″ webbing for maximum durability.
-
Stable Descent: Optimized with a drag coefficient of 0.97 across all sizes, ensuring predictable parachute deployment and smooth recovery.
-
Four-Line Design: Reduces the risk of line tangling while maintaining full canopy efficiency. This design is known as a Parabolic Parachute, they are extremely stable, do not oscillate, and swivels are not required. They are known for their reliability, reusability, and overall, one of the most solid designs.
-
Deployment Compatible: Includes a top loop for secure attachment to deployment bags, flame shields, or rocket nose cones.
-
Always in Stock: Available in all standard sizes; custom colors available for an additional charge.
- Sizes are measured over the top: from the line, to top loop, back down to the line. The size of the parachute is the length of the lines, for example, an 8ft Diameter Parabolic Chute, has 8ft long lines.
Applications: Ideal for certification flights, high-power rockets, experimental builds, and general recovery, these parachutes are a reliable backbone of your rocket’s recovery system, providing safe and repeatable performance for every launch.
