This 12 in. (30.5 cm) parachute is preassembled and ready to use on model rockets that require a 12 in. parachute. The shroud lines come attached, and it simply attaches to the nose cone by sliding the shroud lines through the anchor then looping the parachute through the shroud lines.
This lightweight but strong parachute is designed to fit into small airframes and bring your rocket down to the ground with a light touch.

The shroud lines of 2 parachutes ripped out of the site of attachment after the first launch. Very disappointing.

Ordering another
This size works great on many rockets, and definitely on the Sky Writer. The only time I personally had a melting issue was one time when I forgot to add wadding. Oops! It didn’t melt too much, but enough to ruin the chute. Ordering another!
To avoid the melting another reviewer experienced (with any size parachute), I would suggest being extra careful to make sure your recovery wadding is loosely packed but still touching all the inside walls. Also go for the higher # of sheets of wadding. For example, if your engines say use 4-6 sheets, go with 6.

Good for smaller rockets
I have the Crossfire ISX and this size chute is a good size for it. I always cut a hole in mine so the wind doesn’t carry it away. If I ever need a replacement, I know what to do.

Chute pattern
I am very glad to see the return of patterned chutes. 12 in chute very durable,long as you use wadding and correctly.

Melts together too much
I was wondering If there was something better than recovery wadding thats fireproof because Everytime I launch with this parachute it melts togeather every time no matter how much wadding I use. ESTES NOTE: Our recovery wadding is flame resistant and we can’t recommend any other material to use as recovery wadding.
