![]() bought the kit 2 years ago...and finally got it finished. could go for my lv2 as early as Ecof depending on the weather. it is a 'Competitor 3' 83" long, 3" diam., dry weight (with motor adaptor) 3786g, dual deploy. ground tested the ejection charges today.

![]() That's a killer motor. Lots of fire and white smoke. Post a photo when you get it done!

![]() If I L2 cert I'm going to do it with one of those giant 6" diameter Skeeter kits (Mosquito)
with SINGLE deploy that only hits 1000' on a J350W. Could recover in any normal small field.

When in doubt, WHACK the GAS and DITCH the brake !!! Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't ! Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY. ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC ! |

![]() it was indeed a successful flight and landing. managed to miss the trees and the water hazards
![]() there is no one correct path to certification, an extream mozzie would work, although a 54mm motor might make packing the chute easier ![]() Rex |

![]() My L2 was a 4" dia Marauder upscale. CTI J320 and ARTS v1 altimeter for dual deploy. I really enjoy DD flights, but I'm really hooked on the ease and convenience of the JL chute release.
Any thoughts on your L3 yet? ![]()
