Parachute placement:
 Place the parachute in the parachute holder as shown in the picture below. The
parachute's release straps (brown with plastic sheaths) should also be aligned
appropriately (as shown)
 Use a carabiner to connect both of the parachute's release straps with the rocket
assembly's connecting strap. Apply Loctite 243 before closing the carabiner.
 Slide the thin rubber sleeve over the carabiner and temp it with a heat iron so that it fixes
itself to the carabiner/strap junction.
