Our prototype sought out to be a physical compilation, containing main subsystems like the housing capsule, rocket body, and Flight Computer to actualize dimensions and fitment to eventually perform a test launch on 13 December 2025. This was to answer the question: What are the appropriate dimensions needed to adequately fit all of the housing components? Below are photos of the subsystems worked on during this prototype phase.
Flight Computer
Housing Capsule
Prototype 1 & 2 Assembly All Parts
These components were then fitted into the first assembly of the rocket body. With fitment being a success, the plan moving forward for future iterations is improving the sensor implementation of the Flight Computer, utilizing more fin simulation within RockSim and FEA software analysis for our future launch.
This is a short gallery to depict the development leading up to our 50% build progress report. More documentation on our 50% build is available in our work page.
