Bumblebee

Today I worked a little bit more on the rocket design and slightly changed it so i can use this airframe as the second stage for my next rocket (2 stage 1.2km rocket).

I also picked parts for the flightcomputer and studied datasheets.

Next up is the PCB schematic!

I have been working on this project before the timelaps function came out. And it mainly was simulation and design work, so not that much logging.
I’m building the first of 2 model rockets in my current program.

1. development rocket to prove i can launch one succesfully using avionics. I call this rocket ‘Bumblebee’
2. the proven technology on flight 2 will finally fly on a full 2 stage rocket to about 1.2km. And controll: second stage ignition, drogue chute deployment at apogee and main chute deployment at 200m. I call this rocket ‘Yeetimus Prime’ 😂

I’ve already designed and simulated rockets 1 and 3 in a program called ‘Open Rocket’. And made a 3d CAD model of Bumblebee(rocket of flight one)
