Hey Everyone! Sorry for the long delay with no updates. As many of you know I have done 13 TVC flights now! Here is some updates from recent progress:
Flight Computers:
In September I ordered the first batch of MK5 flight computers which utilized the BMI088 and SMD BMP280 sensors! There was a slight problem with us
ing high current servos the flight computer would brown-out. So over a month I designed and build Omega MK6 with the help of my friend, Conner. The pcbs turned out well but I had a problem receiving data from the barometer but I already fixed that. MK6 has two switches, a voltage divider to measure voltage, and a set of header pins to switch between straight battery voltage and 5V from the buck converter.
Frontier:
Frontier is my TVC dev rocket which is mostly 3D printed! The next flight will hopefully be on October 30th!
Thanks, Cole
