Attach parachute to ejection seat?

321 theboys  2.6 years ago

We've got a detacher attached to the cockpit seat and it ejects. But we don't know how to make the parachute 'stick' to the seat. Our parachute only seems to attach to other parts of the cockpit besides the ejection seat.

    I found a way to attach the parachute. How i did it was to make the ejection seat before making the plane or cockpit. I made the detacher small and used the modern seat and i attached the parachute by making a connection to the seat and making it a subassembly and the made the cockpit and plane. Not really a good explication but thats how i did it

    @ColonelCanada, I thought you had made a comment here before but I can't find it. I didn't quite understand what you mean. But we uploaded an example of our ejection seat. It's just a basic seat. https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/Y9cxb5/F-15A

    Does this give you any clues as to what we could be doing differently?
