Water Rocket Parachute Deployment Techniques

Detailed step by step instruction has been provided in this parachute deployment techniques video. It covers 2-liter soda bottle rockets as well as FTC rockets (fluorescent tube covers). Also, this video introduces a clever device named Chute Release that delays parachute deployment to a specified altitude of your choice. This is great for windy days and small fields when normally your rocket would drift too far while descending under parachute. Chute Release solves this problem with a very small and easy to use device. Advance to the topic of interest via the menu below:
