Ultra-Light Parabolic Parachutes

Rocketman Ultra-Light Parabolic Parachutes

These parachutes are less than half the weight and packing volume of our Standard Parabolic Parachutes, making them perfect for high-altitude rockets, weather balloons, and UAVs where every ounce counts.

Key Features:

• Ultra-Light Materials: Entire canopy constructed from .66 oz ripstop nylon; seams reinforced with tape instead of heavier webbing.

• Spectra Shroud Lines: High-strength, lightweight Spectra lines maintain stability while reducing weight.

• Compact & Efficient: Ideal for rockets with limited internal volume, maintaining the reliable 4-line parabolic design you trust.

• Fast, Stable Deployment: Quick opening and highly stable in flight—resists spinning and oscillation.

Applications: The go-to choice for rockets and payloads where minimizing weight and packing space is critical, without sacrificing reliability or performance.

This parachute has a drag coefficient of .97.

• Designed for high-altitude rockets, weather balloons, and UAVs, these ultra-light parachutes combine maximum performance with minimal weight and packing volume.

  Key Features:

  • Material: Made from .66 oz nylon ripstop for extreme lightness without sacrificing strength.

  • Shroud Lines: 200 lb Spectra, coated with PTFE to resist abrasion and fraying over time.

  • Optimized for Weight & Space: Ideal for high-altitude flights or rockets with large motors where every ounce and cubic inch counts.

  • Four-Line Design: Only four lines per chute—easy to pack, highly stable, and resistant to spinning or oscillation.

  • Precision Construction: All cloth and lines are hot-knife sealed and sewn with nylon tape, professionally designed for reliability.

  • Deployment Ready: Includes a top loop for attachment to drogues, flame shields, or deployment bags.

  • Fast Opening: Extremely quick deployment for high-speed ascents, ensuring reliable recovery.

  • Made in the USA: 100% domestic materials and production.
