On Tuesday, 20. 6. our team visited the Aerodium vertical wind tunnel in Logatec, who have kindly allowed us to test our CanSat in their facility. Our parachute performed exceptionally well, but unfortunately, we ran into some issues with the battery so we couldn’t test our motors.

This post contains the 2 main documents we needed to submit to the ESA before the launch campaign. Critical Design Review (CDR) was submitted on 30th March and contains our idea of guided landing described in detail and the Pre Launch Report (PLR) that was submitted on 9th June and contains a description of every aspect of CanSat's operations.

Today we'll write about how we made on-ground transmitters for the direction of our CanSat to the target landing location.

Hello readers, it's been a while.

We thought you might want to know what we've been up to during this time and, oh boy, we've been busy.

At today's meeting, our team performed a test of the DTMF system that is the base of our guiding system.

Yesterday, 11.1.2023, we met with members of the commission from the European Space Agency and the Slovakian team, which is enrolling in the CanSat competition for the first time this year. We presented our secondary mission to the commission and admired the very interesting goals the Slovakian team have set themselves.
