Packing a chute with a pilot
Their instructions suck!! They say one person??? Maybe one, but two makes it easier.
1) Have plenty of room behind the car.
2) Get the lines and chute straightened out completely. Lines CAN NOT be twisted what so ever or it will not deploy correctly.
3) Fold the lines into the pouch
4) Gently put the main chute in the pouch
5) Put the pilot chute lines in on top of the pouch
6) push in the pilot chute
7) Use the line provided (or any other type of "string") to line up the holes
8) Put in your chute release line

once u learn u will love it, brakes last for 20 years when u use a chute.
Plus some tracks are very short at our speeds.
It's not hard, but much easier in person to show, or talk through.

If anyone is in a hurry and can't find help, send me a PM and we can exchange numbers, and I can talk u thru it. I have the tri chute on the fast car & the cross chute on the slow car.
Finding a wife to even go to the track is hard enough, u guys expect them to work also, GOOD LUCK!!

I'm trying to find a trick to compress the spring while you tie the pack closed. It seems impossible with one person but two people can wrestle everything closed.
