lewmonst 0 #1 May 18, 2004 What size main and reserve are meant to fit in an old Talon T7? What's the minimum? Thanks Lewhttp://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #2 May 18, 2004 Lew, The main should take a canopy around 475 cu. in. There should be a letter for the reserve container size. You can find it under the reserve protective flap up on the yoke. I am guessing it is a C or D and that is around 400 cu. in.

lewmonst 0 #3 May 18, 2004 I was able to find that... I was hoping someone could translate that into what size main and reserve so I didn't have to search around for it. also, the reserve "tray size" and main "tray size" listed T7... that's it. thanks lewhttp://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markbaur 0 #4 May 18, 2004 One of my rigging customers has a Talon T7. The Raven 3 reserve and Monarch 215 main pack nicely in it. Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lewmonst 0 #5 May 18, 2004 Thanks... So should there ever be a Tempo 170 in a Talon T7? thanks lewhttp://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #6 May 18, 2004 QuoteThanks... So should there ever be a Tempo 170 in a Talon T7? thanks lew Lew, I would say no. The Tempo 170 is under 400 cu. in. and the Raven III is over 500.

Sparky Thanks, that's what I thought. How about that rig, with a Tempo 170 and a 190 main...? Someone recently sold someone this complete rig... ...Then some rigger repacked the reserve and main and sent off this low-timer to jump it......... lewhttp://www.exitshot.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 558 #8 May 18, 2004 "T7" implies that it is a second generation Talon, introduced in 1994 ('94 Talon, Talon 2, Talon 3, Talon FS). I do not have the chart in front of me, but a Talon T7 is designed for a reserve larger than 190 square feet. Smaller reserves are not a big deal (excuse the pun) as long as you follow the closing loop lengths recommended in the manual. Loose mains can become a problem.
