If you order camera box from TonFly - you can order some screws from them. Or call Valera Ippolitov - he made me 3 custom screws!

Thank you for suggestions! 1. New cutaway chincup is compatible with old-style RAWA (2004-2005 ?, large soft forehead, without place for CamEye on back of helmet). 2. Is it possible to upgrade mine existing old chincup on place ?(i'm in Russia now). So i don't waste time - season is beginning

I'm on the market for cutaway system for mine Rawa with sidebox (Sony PC350). Why? After incident with me 2 days ago: strike with other canopy - linetwist - low cutaway - entanglement with released canopy - fortunately released helmet and canopy (myself) = under reserve on 50-100 meters. Any suggestions? Bonehead cutaway system is good? Any live experience? Sorry for bad english...

Hi all! I need some photos of wingsuit modification on Wings containers to retrofit mine Wings W1. I need cutoff completely or partialy sews beetwen lateral and bottom flaps or something else? Can you help me?
-
Before Ka-107 i made 250 jumps with Safire 129(119). Safire - i love it!
-
Hi! For first jumps with wingsuit i will use Safire2 119. Katana -MAY BE later! On Katana 107 i have 220 jumps, but for wingsuit - will consider something bigger/dosile.
-
It"s very similar with mine idea to made this modification

Atmosphere doesn't have TSO. Legaly you can use it in USA only if you are non USA resident.

I finaly relined mine Katana 107:) and put 15 jumps on it! On that moment it had approx. 450 jumps (wingload 1.6-1.7). For curiosity i mesuarased difference betwen old lineset from spectra 525 with new HMA-lineset 500 (in inches): C5 - 8 3/4 C4 - 8 C3 - 7 C2 - 6 C1 - 6 3/4 A5 - 9 A4 - 8 A3 - 6 3/4 A2 - 5 3/4 A1 - 6 1/4 Now i understand - why now it's fly SO DIFFERENT:)! Opening - more sniveling and consistent. no more offheading opening on every jump:)! Also new lineset adds more speed and better control during swoop and flaring. Highly recomend to instal new HMA-lineset if your Katana has 300+ jumps on spectra-lineset!!!
-
I don"t think to produce lineset by myself, but it"s good idea to have possibility to control and change lineset with instructions. I had relined mine Ka107 with PD original HMA-lineset without big problem (with mine rigger contol and sew bartaks). Why not same way for Icarus?
-
For PD it is very easy to find line-trim chart on web-site, with measuring instructions. Very good for customers. Why not the same for Icarus? I know that Icarus canopies has\had differrent manufacturers\revision of line-trim etc. May be for this reason? I am interesting to have line-trim for Safire\Crossfire.

Yes, HMA on Katana is cascaded! I have new HMA lineset at home and will reline old spectra lineset next week.

settings for sony pc350 and waycool 0.3 lens
dima39 replied to frenchcloud's topic in Photography and Video
On mine Sony 350 i use manual focus to infinity (not auto focus). I can suggest to fix focus ring with big rubber band (same used for stowing lines on bag) and also cover NightSwitch with peace of Gaffer tape or Scotch. -
Thanks to all! I just ordered new HMA lineset and will send mine KA to rigger for reline in 2 weeks. All questions that i made - to know from expirience of other jumpers and riggers (not only PD) how long (aprox.) new HMA-lineset will last and aprox. determine resale value. May be after other 100-200 (now i have 160-170 on KA 107) i will switch to KA 97.

Arround 500 jumps for new lineset from HMA 500 - for me it is GOOD number:)! Mine new HMA lineset will be PD orignal (i hope
-
How many jumps (aprox.) i can do with new line set (HMA 500) on Katana 107 (now has arround 400 jumps and bad fusy original lineset from spectra) ? Mine wingload is 1.65. Thank you in advance!
