Devlog 6 - IT WORKS! Flight computer v1 built

I put together real hardware, deployed my code, and waved it around in the air for a little while, and we recorded real data that proves this thing will work. Take a look at the pictures!

New Since Last Time

The first order of supplies came in, including a lot of flight computer hardware. After a little research and planning, I got the hardware all soldered up. Wrestling with the software program was a blast, and I’m proud to say that Flightscope Flightcore has recorded its first “flight”.

What’s next

I’m going to be researching for part 2 of the flight computer, aka the ejection charge handler. Hopefully in my next devlog, I don’t have to report any explosions…
