fpmurphy 0 #1 June 27, 2005 I'd be interested to hear any worthwhile observations on the following: I was wondering if it is possible to deploy a high performance canopy slider down on a hop n pop (possibly using a BASE style "tail gate") so a bullet cam could be attached high up the lines? I have no interest in becoming a test pilot so has anybody tried it or seen it done? If so what were the results and what were stresses like on canopy and pilot? -Fen- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Treejumps 0 #2 June 27, 2005 It is possible, and has been done a couple times at Bridge Day. You really should not do that out of a plane though. To much airspeed, and will likely hurt, and possibly damage your canopy. A camera has been packed into canopies before, so if you are looking to get that angle, it is possible. Simply mount (tie) the camera one at a line attachement point above the slider. The canopy will open fine, and if you attachedd the camera well, it will survive and get the shot. Good luck.
