You can never max one of these out simply because if you try to accelerate to the pack's limit, you'd end up going too fast to slow down (slowing down takes fuel too) and cause yourself a lateral impact that would snap your legs or break your ankles.
Go to high and risk a situation where landing is difficult and dangerous.
Its not as easy as you think - just opening a parachute...a parachute takes TIME to open. HAve you ever heard of a Base Jumper jumping from less than 200 Feet? That's about the height you could expect to reach in one of these.

Completely ridiculous.
