Cheap way to make your own parachute

[spartaHawk]

It seems like a parachute deployment system is a very worthwhile investment for Solo since replacement frames are going to be difficult to come by at some point, if not already. What is the cheapest effective parachute option you've seen? There are expensive options but it seems like something cheaper has to be possible.

This is my favorite inexpensive solution. It activates with a remote control signal you deploy manually to a servo. Doing it without a 3d printer would be better even. Parachutes are Cool! - DIY Multirotor Parachute

YOU Test it!

The PiperSport I fly is equipped with a "Ballistic Parachute" and they're generally designed to save lives -- not property. A 'chute will slow it down, but... IDK???

You also need enough altitude and hopefully you didn't lose comms with the UAS.

Cool idea though.
