Fight Concepts 9 Cell

Item: Fight Concepts 9 Cell 
Manufacturer: Flight Concepts   (1153 Hits)
Purpose: Main 
Shape Square 
Cells
Fabric: ZP 
   

Description:
Flight Concepts' line of 9 Cell mains are the best
all around canopies on the market today. Our flared construction
makes way for a smoother airfoil and strength qualities that are
superior to canopies built with direct line attachment. For the
experienced jumper who prefers the swoop type landing we have
a canopy to suit your individual needs. For the unpredictable
student, feel secure with the Manta, the #1 student canopy in
use today. For smooth openings, getting back from long spots, and
soft landings whether you're a jumper or a recovery
system for NASA, Flight Concepts has a canopy built for you.

Sentry 210
Rated by: coldsteel (more about me) on 2008-05-18 20:16:36 (user reviews) Review ID:1981

Pros: Great customer service,reasonable pricing,quality product
Cons: Not a super high performance canopy

I just got to jump my Sentry 210 canopy. I am very pleased with the construction and performance of this FC product. I used to jump a Raider 220 and I liked that old F-111 canopy... that was an excellent canopy in it's day...still is as a matter of fact. I can't say enough good things about Red at Flight Concepts....he'll bend over backwards to make his customers happy with his product, he even offered to take the canopy back and replace it if I had a problem with it. When I down-size to a smaller canopy this summer, I plan to give Red a call.

Great transitional canopy for students
Rated by: matthewcline (more about me) on 2006-08-08 00:00:00 (user reviews) Review ID:1618

Pros: Great all around canopy and good price.
Cons: None yet

The Sentry Line seams t obe a great all around canopy design. Nice opennings and great glide and flare power. Loaded lightly, this is a great transitional canopy for students and youger jumpers. Loaded heavy this canopy can be used by more experienced jumpers to develope more aggressive canopy piloting skills. This is a good canopy for many disciplines in skydiving and Instructors who will jump multiple times in a day and need not to worry about spinning or hard opennings.

FCI Rage
Rated by: Bodyflying (more about me) on 2006-07-13 00:00:00 (user reviews) Review ID:1594

Pros: Smooth on heading openings / Excellent bottom end
Cons: None

After trying the demo I knew this canopy was it. Very controled openings the best I've had on this type of planform. Good stability in turbulance and tons of flare, call Red at Flight Concepts for a demo he's the best to deal with.
