Flight Objectives
Gain better knowledge of the nature of composite materials
Gather temperature data along the flight Gather IMU data Gather pressure data along the flight Gather solar cell data along the flight Track and recover payload

Flight #1 (continued)
HOBO datalogger recorded temperature and relative humidity
IMU data was retrieved but could not be analyzed
GPS tracking was successful up to burst and then during part of the descent

Flight #2 (continued)
Temperature, pressure, and solar cell data successfully recorded
GPS never acquired satellites due to antenna installation

Conclusions
Two successful launches Recovered payload after both launches Gathered temperature, pressure, and IMU data Cannot put aluminum tape over GPS antenna
Created own systems instead of using heavy, off the shelf systems
Improved structural layout to improve wiring layout

Future Goals
Reduce weight Improve wiring by integrating PCB Make GPS more reliable Integrate solar cells to power the payload
