On YORF, David Stribling posted some scanned instructions for the TLP Hawk kit.
The Launch Pad instructions are clean and to the point -

Here's yet another way to attach a snap swivel to the parachute shroud lines:
It's more difficult to get the lines through the small end loop. This is the way Estes would have you attach the lines to a nose cone eyelet or screw eye, except at the snap swivel. It allows you to remove or change out the parachute if needed.

Yet another way? Um... how else would you do it? This is what I've always done.
ReplyDeleteHi chris,
DeleteI've done it this way before, but not all three lines at once. The wire loop is pretty small.
Recently I've tried it this way: https://modelrocketbuilding.blogspot.com/2019/06/ed-mitton-snap-swivel-connection-tip.html
