AVIONICS
The Avionics team designs the custom electronics and software that allow our rockets and test systems to operate safely.
Our work connects sensors, power systems, control hardware, telemetry, and operator interfaces so the team can collect data, send commands, and verify system behavior during development, testing, and flight.
Avionics plays a central role in integration by giving the team the tools needed to understand, validate, and safely operate complex rocket systems.
Join the Avionics team!
Avionics is always looking for members interested in learning PCB design, soldering, Rust, C, Python JavaScript, data analysis, and hardware in the loop testing.
SUBTEAMS
Flight Software
Flight Software encompasses our custom Rust-based software stack for remotely monitoring and controlling our vehicles and ground support equipment. It includes a custom operator interface that allows the team to command systems, view live data, and manage tests and flights safely.
Vehicle Avionics
Vehicle Avionics includes the custom electronics that power, control, and monitor our rockets during testing and flight. Our hardware includes flight computers, battery management, recovery, telemetry, & data acquisition systems that collect sensor data, communicate with MC, and control vehicle hardware.
Ground Support Electronics
Ground Support Electronics is our custom hardware that controls and monitors our test stands during engine hotfires and ground testing. It handles solenoid valve control, sensor data collection, and system monitoring & control to help the team safely operate and validate our propulsion systems.
Hardware in the Loop
Hardware-in-the-Loop is our custom test system that allows us to validate our avionics and software before they are used on the vehicle. By simulating sensors, actuators, and vehicle behavior, these systems help the team test control logic, telemetry, and failure cases safely and repeatedly.
