Constant Settings

Select Jumpmaster, select a jump type, and select Constant.
Percent Max.: Sets the jump range for all jump types. A setting less than 100% decreases the drift distance to
the DIP, and a setting greater than 100% increases the drift distance. More experienced jumpmasters may
want to use smaller numbers, and less experienced skydivers may want to use larger numbers.
Safety Factor: Sets the margin of error for a jump (HAHO only). Safety factors are usually integer values of two
or greater, and are determined by the jumpmaster based on specifications for the jump.
K-Freefall: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during freefall, based on the parachute canopy rating (HALO
only). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.
K-Open: Sets the wind drag value for an open parachute, based on the parachute canopy rating (HAHO and
HALO). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.
K-Static: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during a static jump, based on the parachute canopy rating
(Static only). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.
