[QUOTE="mz, post: 76033, member: 647"] [quote="avatar"] what they are investigating right now is the means to do away with the parachute altogether.. [/quote] Hard to land with that tiny wing area. If you land the 100 kg pilot + stuff at 10 m/s (100 m sprint speed) and have 5 square meters (they have far less in the video), you'd need a cL of about 4, which is not realistic. You really need bigger wings to go slower. [/QUOTE]
