Pioneer in the drone rescue parachutes development, Opale Parachutes introduces its brand new range of Safetech® products.
A simple and groundbreaking technology
This new parachute rescue system will allow you to secure your drone in any circumstances.
Thanks to its new ejection technology, combined with the ST60, the main parachute is ejected and deployed between 0.8s - 1.5s, with a deployment height between 8 and 15 meters. Unlike the competitors’ systems, the Safetech® does not apply a permanent pressure on the parachute, which allows to guarantee a safe ejection, a super fast deployment and also a longer parachute shelf life, without repackaging it every week.
A simple and fast fixation allows an universal mounting on all machines available on the market.
Heavy duty resistance
The rescue parachute strap is made of Aramid / Kevlar, ensuring a rupture resistance of 300kg (661lb). The lines and the strap are knots free, which allows to have a 100% mechanical resistance and an outstanding finish, for an optimal lifespan.
The parachute is made of the same quality standards than a rescue parachute ULA. The fabrics have a silicon coating, with a really low mass (only 32g/m2), that offers an extremely light system.
A low impact energy
A new parachute geometry was especially developed in order to offer the lightest rescue system, a compact, a flight steadiness and an opening efficiency. You will benefit of a low sink-rate with a maximal impact energy of 540J for a 40kg (88.2lb) drone weight, with a rescue parachute kit only wheighing 1130gr (2.5lb).
The result of this low impact energy will allow you to easily registrate your machine regarding your airplane country regulations.
Security, safety and reliability pledge
A market analysis allows to quickly understand the Safetech® technology benefits :
- Pyrotechnic free: Air transport and maintenance routine easy and safe, Safetech® prevents uncontrolled explosion risk.
- The parachute is free from permanent pressure: Shelf life increased, super fast and efficient deployment.
- Fuse system free: no useless battery weight, deployment time shorter and optimized, no Lipo battery inflating risk and no fire risk.
So you will understand, the Safetech® technolgy will offer the best safety and reliability standards to protect your drone in any situations, with a very competitive price.

Opale parachute are compatible with Multirotor they unfolds on order in a split second to ensure a smooth landing after a maneuver much less smooth!
The container is attached to the parachute so that you can use it again immediately after a collapse.
Really compact and light, very strong and equipped with reinforcements such as those you find on a full size parachute, no doubt this is going to be the perfect friend for your crazy trips or more wisely to efficiently protect your onboard photo / video equipment. The great thing is that you can use it either on a model in the Opale Paramodels range or on a Multirotor.
