Description
The Hybrid SQR Light is the lightweight version of the Companion SQR. It is a new generation of reserve parachute, which merges the advantages of the classic round canopy and the cross version into an innovative and forward-looking technology. The SQR Light has been newly developed from the start, and is precisely directed to meet the needs of pilots and packers.
Latest Development Methods
For the first time, development made use of CFD simulation as an analysis technique, in addition to the many actual throwings and the use of a purpose-built vehicle for load testing. Special design software was developed which, among other things, calculated the ideal canopy shape based on computed airflow analysis. The result is a reserve with aerodynamically enhanced pendulum stability, not trimmed to track in flight. The Companion is available in the standard weight version (Companion SQR) and the light version (Companion SQR Light)./span>
