Strong Starmaker Ripcord

Recommended Posts

Ok folks... this one goes out to the old folks (and the few young ones that like old gear... like me ;))

SE is trying to find the spec's for the ripcord, but I am hoping someone has theirs that could be measured.

(Had mine until ~4,000 on Sat.) Looked for it, but didn't find it in the 10 acres where it should have landed.

BTW - the Starmaker is a good container for a round-intentional cut-away... but it opens SMARTLY!!! I know the TSO says it must open in 3 seconds, but it didn't seem to need the last 2.5 seconds of that... :S:)

What kind of ripcord is it? A cloverleaf? A Martin-Baker? What is the size of the elastic pocket that holds it? What is the distance from the pocket to the closing loop/cone? It seems to me that you could reconstruct it from the rig dimensions, and send the specs to a manufacturer.
