Design

To be filled as design is finalized

The Kaboom CanSat team’s secondary mission is a technical challenge, in which we’ll attempt to guide the ascending satellite to a specified landing place. To achieve this we’ll use a “parafoil”
type parachute system, with motorized adjustment using two SG90 (or more powerful if needed) servo motors.

For a major section of the descent the satellite will not be seen from the ground, and for this reason the flight path will be automatically adjusted using the on board CC3D type flight
controller equipped with a GPS (sensor-model–here) and altitude sensor (sensor-name-here).

Close to the ground we’ll switch to manual controls if necessary, interfacing with the flight controller using a (insert-radio-name) radio module
