This month most of our main components and parts for manufacturing of our PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) arrived.
Fun fact: we use commercial paintball products for our tank and pressure regulator.
We also got tools and supplies from Pathos, a former REXUS-Team of our University, which we will use for the construction. With the parts at hand we are able to exactly measure the components for the CAD drawings.
Now we are ready to wrap up our design phase to discuss our final draft with the experts at the CDR (Critical Design Review).
The pressure tank is usually used for paintball games 😉
Some Electronics and our Flight Computer (down left)
Pressure Tank with Regulator and Pinvalve
Pressure Sensors – to monitor the pressure in the tank and the system
Pinvalve – is attached to the first regulator
First Pressure Regulator – to reduce the pressure from about 100 bar to around 21 bar
