Summer 2010 - AfterNoon DeLite
At the Alabama Space Grant Consortium's High Powered Rocketry Workshop, I built AfterNoon DeLite with Lars Osborne and Taylor Courier. We used a MadCow Patriot starter kit and added a payload section for an onboard camera. To make this work, we added an extra bulk head with an eyebolt and shock cord. The hardest part was designing a mount system and lens hole for the camera that would keep it from breaking. We successfully launched and recovered the rocket.
