Pioneer Rocketry Proceedings Report 2021

Résumé

The Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium hosts the annual Collegiate Rocket Launch Competition every year. The goal of the competition this year was to design and build a rocket to fly to between 2500 and 3500 ft and record flight data along with additional internal readings. The rocket, “Error :(“, used a CTI I435 motor to lift it to an apogee of 2300 ft.. An onboard electronics bay would take measurements before and during flight and a breakaway USB cable from the launch pad to a ground station allowed communication with the rocket until the point of liftoff.
