Vigil 2+ Extreme

Recommended Posts

So I have heard talk of this swoop unit for about a year now, but no one has them for sale apparently. The guy at Square1 hadn't even heard of it. I emailed Chutingstar but haven't heard back yet. I emailed the U.S. Sales rep and didn't get a response.

Has anyone heard anything? I looked up a thread where it was mentioned here once but not much info was available.

Anyone know someone that would have the answers and could refer them to this thread?

What does the Extreme offer that current vigil and cypres speed can't?

Is this just an increased speed software update or something different entirely? Like shutting off after main canopy opens?

It is essentially Vigil's "Cypress Speed" version. Vigil hasn't had a swoop friendly device until now.

It has a higher activation speed (96.8 mph) and will not activate under a perceived 300 ft altitude.



Speed Cypres2 was set at 43 meters per second (96.18 mph). They are now set at 46 meters per second (102.89 mph). Units are being updated to the higher setting as they go in for their maintenance. Mine has been updated.

"Activation speed: approx. >96 mph (43 m/s) (for units which have not been updated after 1.1.2013)
approx. >102 mph (46 m/s) (for new units after 1.1.2013 or units which have been updated at maintenance / service after 1.1.2013)
Activation altitude: approx. 750 - 330 ft (225 - 100 meter)
Disarming altitude: approx. 330 ft (100 meter)"
