After searching. as far as I can tell there isn't a chute or any way to install one.
You could email the designer and ask if he intends to add one.

Hi Captain...  Thank you for your timely response.  Massimo Altieri was designing one a few years ago
which showed the 3 Drogue chutes but apparently he decided either not to finish it or or was placed in
one of the sites which requires it be purchased but I never found one of those either.  I ended up placing
an autobrake in the system which now works quite well.

Good workaround!

Too bad, deploying the chutes would have looked great.

Found this, no chutes added but it looks amazing.
