Balloon and Parachute
Posted: Mon Jun 13, 2016 5:15 pm
This is our first balloon flight and I have been researching but could I ask for some confirmation before we spend the last of our donated cash 
Target is 30,480 metres (100,000 feet)
Payload was aiming at 750g but now trying to keep it at 500g
Target ascent = 5m/s
Target decent <= 5m/s
Based on the above information / targets, according to my calculations we are going to need a Hwoyee HY-800 balloon and a 3ft RocketMan Parachute.
Am I correct?
Hoping to order tomorrow for a flight next Weds.
