The SDM Series has been designed from the start to be a rugged and reliable instrument. It overcomes many of issues cited by users of the current military altimeter. It is almost 50% shorter, 50% lighter and has a counterweighted movement. It is designed to retrofit existing harnesses and rigs so as to be compatible with other equipment currently in use. There are several models available from the SDM1 to the SDM6, which give the users options form a plain, featureless model to a waterproof, back lighted model. Each model is available in different ranges from 12,000 ft up to 30,000 ft. Please Check Back Soon For Updated Pictures
The ADAPT is the most innovative and intelligent automatic activation device ever conceived. In consultation with Strong Enterprises, a need for a new, flexible automatic parachute opener was identified. Thus the ADAPT Project was born. It will greatly improve the reliability of airdrop operations through the use of Situational Awareness Logic, redundant instrumentation, multiple firing circuits, Battery Share Technology(with EMA) and an Operational Safety Mode. It can also be used as a data recorder or for a multitude of other uses, many of which are as yet unknown, because of its functionality as an event controller and its 8 firing circuits.
The EMA is primarily designed as a rip cord puller for large air drop payloads, but it also functions, in conjunction with the ADAPT, as a distribution terminal for additional devices such as pyrotechnic cutters, additional EMAs or other peripheral devices.
The PRT is currently being devloped for the USDA Forestry Service to facilitate delayed parachute deployment. This device is a small mechanical unit. Rip-cord activated. NO BATTERIES, NO HYDRAULICS, NO PYROTECHNICS.
The PRT Bundle system is based on the USDA Forestry Service static-line, modified for drogue assisted free fall and parachute deployment. Current estimated rating is 200lbs.Still in testing phases
Currently being developed for the USDA Forestry Service, Electronic data recorder that is used to evalute and compare multiple parachute configurations for their flight characterstics. This one device can monitor altitude, acceleration, indicated air-speed, heading, temperature and humidity, all combined into one suite of instrumentation.
