Step 19: Test to make sure the camera works properly. Connect the camera switch to the connector of the front of the camera and flip the switch to ON. If camera does not turn on, raise your hand.
Next, touch the two black wires together. The camera should take a picture.
If this does not happen, raise your hand.

Foam Core
Class #08
Foam Core
Class #08
68
- BalloonSats are commonly made of foam core
- Foam core is a simple, low cost composite panel
- You will use hot glue and Xacto knives to create your box
- There is a OK way of building with foam core
- Cut individual pieces and glue them together
- This way works but is not the best and requires more “belts and suspenders”
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
69
BalloonSat Construction:
- There is a BETTER way of building with foam core- Requires algebra and geometry
- See paper on the class website
70
BalloonSat Construction:
- When cutting foam core, remember you are cutting through three layers
- Best to cut each layer individually
- Go slow, use metal edge ruler
- Be mindful
71
BalloonSat Construction:
- Step 1: Layout box design on foam core sheet
72
BalloonSat Construction:
- Step 2: Cut it out
73
- Draw center lines between inner and outer lines
- All edge cuts are at 45 degree angles to the centerline
- Cut inside edges first and only through top paper and foam not bottom paper (hinge)
- Cut outside edges last but all the way through
- Go Slow
Hands-on: Construction and Integration

74
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
75
- Cut holes for solar cell, switches, and temp probe
- Cut hole through center for balloon attachment tube
- Tube hole should not be on open side
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
76
BalloonSat Construction:
- Step 3: Practice integration and make modifications
Hold box together and figure out how much insulation you want to use. Will affect how your components sit in box
77
BalloonSat Construction:
- Step 4: Glue it together and strengthen corners
- Your template was designed using the “Better Method”
- After gluing, cover you seams with aluminum tape
- Please don’t go overboard, weight is still an issue
78
BalloonSat Construction:
- Step 4: Glue it together and strengthen corners
79
BalloonSat Construction:
- Camera aperture and sensors
80
BalloonSat Construction:
Things to remember:
- Switches
81
- Install switches to box and glue switches in place from back side before making electrical connections
- Keep switches on both sides and label ON/OFF positions
- Make sure to re-connect to heater, camera, and 12 V

84
BalloonSat Construction:
Things to remember:
- Flight tube integration- Launch day access- Testing
85
- Balloon attachment tube hole should run through center of box on non-opening side
- Make hole diameter as close to tube diameter as possible
- Secure with paper clip
- Make sure paper clip does not interfere with inner diameter
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
86
- Install Solar Cell, must disconnect from HOBO
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
87
Hands-on: Construction and Integration
88
- Integrate camera system and verify camera settings
- Integrate Flight String attachment tube and test clearance with sample string
- Integrate HOBO system
- Install temp probe (channel 4), metal tip must extend beyond wall of structure
- American Flag

89
- Install voltage cable (channel 3)
- Install Heater
- Test switches (will use one picture)
- Tape in off position
- Team label and reward label on outside of box
