About the TeamThe EPFL Rocket Team is a project composed of students from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland.It aims to build a rocket capable of ejecting a scientific experiment as part of the Spaceport America Cup, the largest student rocketry competition in the world. This competition takes place every year, in June, in New Mexico (USA) and is followed by references in the aerospace industry such as Boeing, Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic.The teams lining up at the competition in 2018 What we have achievedLast summer, after only two participations, we finished in the top 10 of our category on 52 teams with Project Eiger, and the year before we won the "Jim Furfaro Award for Technical Excellence" with Project Matterhorn, a prize awarded to a team on 124 participants who demonstrated the best mastery and understanding of the technologies developed in the rocket.The Eiger rocket at its presentation at EPFL, Lausanne, SwitzerlandThe EPFL Rocket Team in the New Mexico desert for the competition in 2019The Eiger rocket launched at the competition in 2019The Bella Lui Rocket This year, we want to build upon those success with "Project Bella Lui", a 4-meter, 40-kilogram rocket that will be propelled to an altitude of 10,000 feet (3048 meters) with a hybrid engine developed by students from the team, before ejecting an experiment: a life sensor analyzing the behavior of yeast in harsh conditions. The success of this ambitious project depends on the support of our sponsors. We are already collaborating with companies such as RUAG Space, Sauber Aerodynamics, Maxon Motors, and APCO Technologies, which finance us and advise us on the technical aspects of the project.Our partner are benefiting from an important visibility on the EPFL campus. We participate in many events on the campus (Association Week, Technology and Innovation Fair and Forum EPFL at the Swiss Tech Convention Center, EPFL Open days and other events on campus) where our sponsors are brought forward. We also attend many events outside the campus in Switzerland and abroad (Rockets launches, ESA Open Day…). Supporting this project is also a great way to reach passionate, talented and ambitious engineers. The project is followed by many media and also by the EPFL press service (Mediacom), which regularly publishes articles about us. This project train future engineers to the complex projects they could meet in their future careers. Some of our PCBs :The Avionics PCBS:The goal of the avionics is to be the most modular as possible, in order to have the possibility to change a board as fast as possible if needed, for example when a components is broken.The Payload PCBs:The payload is a live sensor experiment which is controlled by a PCB.The propulsion and Ground Support Equipment PCB:In order to control the hybrid motor, the ignition or the filling of the tank before the flight, many PCB's are needed.The Valve bay linking the tank to the combustion chamber, where the control PCB will be placed to control the valveThe Ground Support Equipment:This valise allows us to recieve and read the datas sent by the rocket before, and after its fligh, such as the alltitude, the acceleration, the speed... Many PCB's are needed to recieve and show all this information .Social Networks:Website: https://epflrocketteam.ch/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/epflrocketteam/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/epflrocketteam/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/EPFL_RocketTeamLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/11134763YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzwfq09H46CorH7S-K1UnUg

Valkyrie, the new electronics system: RICHARD MK IIIOur rocket, Valkyrie, is a bi-liquid rocket that uses isopropyl alcohol as fuel and nitrous oxide as oxidizer. Our engine is 3D printed in steel and has coolant channels around the chamber, so the fuel is cooling it down while operating along with optimizing the burn of the fuel. The Valkyrie rocket has an upgraded version of the Dragonfly’s “the Stack” - electronics named “The Rack” - due to the new design involving board placement like that of slot-in RAM in a computer. The Rack (Electronics)In our new rocket, Valkyrie, we will use the same flight computer we built for the previous rocket, Dragonfly, but with some upgrades. This flight computer will be put together in a rack, like RAM modules slid into a motherboard supported in each side and locked into place with a locking mechanism, so it does not fall out from vibration during operation of the rocket. Our rack has the following boards each with specific functionalities; Template boardAll PCBs in the Rack are based on a template design; an STM32g4 microcontroller with power management, external flash, external EEPROM, CAN transceiver, barometer, and IMU. This allows every board to log data, store configuration files, and communicate with the rest of the boards on the CAN bus.Telemetry boardThe telemetry board is responsible for transmitting in real time data, about the rocket, to the ground station. Among this data, there is information about the rocket's speed, attitude and location. For this purpose, the telemetry board comprises a GPS module and three LORA transceivers connected to the on-board antennas. Thereupon, there is also a similar board on ground used to receive and decode the transmitted data. Finally, the temetry board is integrated in The Rack and communicates with the other boards via CAN bus. Actuator boardThe Actuator board controls the different Servo boards located in different places in the rocket. The board sends out PWM signals for controlling the servos, enable signals to turn on power for the servos, and gets feedback from the servo board. Main boardThe Main board acts as a “leader” of the Rack, making decisions on what measurements need to be taken and which actions should be taken. It does this by requesting data from the other boards on the CAN bus, or telling other boards what to do. The Main board also has an RS422 transceiver, which is used for communication with Mission Control while the rocket is still on the launch rail pre-flight.Pressure boardThe Pressure board measures 7 different pressures in the rocket, in both the engine and the rest of the fluid system. It also reads the measurements from the level sensor, which shows how much oxidizer is left in the tank.Temperature boardThe Temperature board measures 8 different temperatures in the rocket.Power boardThe Power board provides power to the Rack on two separate grounds. It houses three switch-mode power supplies; a logic 5V line, a power 5V line, and a power 15V line. It is also responsible for switching on three different cameras in the rocket right before flight. Additionally, the power board measures the battery voltage and current output of all batteries in the rocket, as well as the power consumption of it’s switch-mode power suppliesBackplaneThe Backplane is exactly what it sounds like, a backplane for communication between each board in the flight computer. The backplane connects to each board using a slot in connector, similar to the well known PCI-E 4x slot, providing more than enough connection pins for each board. This enables super fast board changes in case of a malfunction, hardware failure etc. Besides handling all communication between flight computer boards, the backplane also connects the flight computer to the rest of the rocket, eliminating the need for multiple connectors on each board. Servo boardControls one pair of servos using PWM signals supplied by the Actuator board. It is supplied with 12.5V from a LiPo battery which is converted down to 7.4V for driving the servos and 5V for powering the on board PWM buffer. An enable signal triggering a current toggle allows for quick shutdown in case of failures.BMSBMS (Battery Management System) is a 2A charging and monitoring board for various 12V LiPo batteries around the rocket, one per battery. Several batteries can charge from a 24V bus.IgnitorThe ignitor board is a crucial part of the rocket, since the ignition of the rocket is controlled on this board. The board is supplied with a 12.5V LiPo battery and takes in 3 signals for ignition: Rocket_ready, Rocket_ARM and MC_Ignite. All 3 signals have to be set high in order to generate the ignition and are controlled through an AND gate with diodes. The current generated for ignition is done by a LM1084 which outputs 1.5V and 4A. 2 relays are added for safety features, as a mechanical shut off. 5 LED’s are added for debugging to see if the signals are activated. MiddlemanThe name of the middleman board stems from its literal function, being between our COTS (Comercial Off The Shelf) flight computers, and the servos executing the recovery operations. It is a competition requirement that the flight computers that deploy the parachute be commercial, and not made by us. This introduces a problem, as our parachutes are deployed by servoes, and the flight computers output either a high or low signal, and thus cannot control servos. This is where the middleman comes into play, receiving data from the flight computers, and generating a PWM signal that moves the servos accordingly. Apart from controlling the servos, the board has feedback features to verify whether the servos have actually moved when the signal is sent, and whether the corresponding parachute has deployed. All this is communicated to the central “Rack” flight computer.Launch rail and keybox boardTwo additional PCBs will be designed; a launch rail board and a keybox board. The keybox board sits inside a little box with a keyhole at Mission Control, roughly a kilometer away from where the rocket is to be launched. A key can be inserted in the keybox, and turned to three positions: OFF, ARM, and IGNITE. The keybox also sends RS422 data along a kilometer long cable to the launch rail board, which sits in a launch rail cabinet, which is mounted on the side of the rocket’s launch rail.Support from PCBWay would be an enormous help towards reaching our goal in time! Our next rocket is scheduled to launch in October 2021 from Portugal and here, we will hopefully break the world record for height reached by a student built bi-liquid rocket!

As METU Göksat Space Team we are planning to participate the 2021 Teknofest Model Satellite Competition held in Turkey.(https://www.teknofest.org/en/yarisma-detaylar-16.html)This project is a model satellite designed to have 2 components, which are payload and carrier.Carrier will protect the payload which contains the electronic and mechanical parts.In the course of the competition, the model satellite will reach between 500-700 meters and will be released.It will descend at the rate of 10-14 m/s until an altitude of 400m with a passive landing system.After 400 meters payload will detach from the carrier and complete the landing with a constant velocity between 8-10 m/s using an active landing system.Within this period payload will send a data-package comprised of sensor and telemetry data to the ground station while broadcasting a snapshot, and it will store the same information on itself.Also, a 1 MB video provided by TÜRKSAT will be sent to the satellite from the ground station. (Pictures show the printed circuit boards from the side and the top.)

About UsROACH2 is one of the major missions at KSat, a student group for space projects, with an active team of about 10 students.KSat e.V. (Small Satellite Student Society at the University of Stuttgart) situated in Germany, is a non-profit organization founded in the spring of 2014. The more than 70 members are students of all semesters, most of which are enrolled in Aerospace Engineering.Our goal is to give members the opportunity to realize their own spaceflight projects during their time at university. Furthermore, we aim to pass on the knowledge and enthusiasm for space travel as part of our public relations work and to provide a communication platform between students, interested industry partners, research institutions and the public.Our ProjectROACH2 is our second attempt to build a rover that can drive on surfaces in weightlessness using electroadhesion. With this experiment we want to show that this technology is suitable for the demanding environment of weightlessness and vacuum. Our experiment consists of two components that are built into a sounding rocket. The first component is our autonomous rover with electroadhesive surfaces. The second component is an obstacle course, the inside of the rocket module, which our rover will have to navigate during two minutes of weighlessness. Of course, there are also some sensors and cameras installed, so that the experiment can be better evaluated afterwards. The experiment is part of the REXUS/BEXUS programme, an international student programme in cooperation between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Swedish National Space Administration (SNSA). It is designed as a competition and offers students the opportunity to conduct their own ideas as technical experiments under conditions similar to those in space. The launch, on a sounding rocket up to an altitude of 100km, is currently planned for February 2021.How PCBWay Can Help UsAt the heart of the mission are the electroadhesive pads that generate the attaching force to the surface. They work a lot like one side of a capacitor with the floor as the other side. When a high voltage is applied, a force is generated pulling these two surfaces towards each other. Without this force, our rover would no longer stick to the obstacle course and start simply start floating away. While the principle is simple, these paper-thin layers of copper and insulating dielectric pose some real design and construction challenges. Especially the very high voltages, that threaten to cause arcing, require clean geometry with no sharp edges and no manufacturing defects. When we attempted to fabricate these parts ourselves, we did not succeed to produce them with enough consistency. It is simply outside of our capabilites to make in-house.This is why we decided to try alternative methods to produce them. This is where PCBWay plays an important role in making our project a reality.The flex PCB PCBWay offers has the capability of making high detail circuit structures on thin insulators, exactly fulfilling our requirements. The advanced processes that professional PCB manufacturers can offer will allow us to explore new design possibilites and have the advantage of superiour reliability. PCBWay especially has excellent prices and delivery times, that support our need of fast iterations and a larger number of PCBs.

About the teamOSCAR-QUBE is a multidisciplinary team of 15 students from Hasselt University (Belgium, Diepenbeek) that is currently developing a new generation of magnetic field sensors that works on the quantum principles. The students in the team take on challenges in fields of electronics and mechanical engineering, as well as software and physics aspects. For further information please refer to the links below:project OSCAR-QUBE Facebook pageOrbit Your Thesis! ESA Selection results The experimentQuantum technologies - The next frontier in technological advancement is not only quantum computing or encryption. Quantum sensing technologies enable the measurement of physical quantities using quantum properties of materials. This results in “digital” drift-free measurements. It enables the accurate measurement of external fields, with high sensitivity, across a broad frequency spectrum. Further development of this technology and the widespread use of quantum sensing will enrich both space and terrestrial applications, such as, for example, navigation, communication or healthcare, and might lead to new discoveries and space exploration. How does the sensor work? The core of the sensor consists of a single crystal diamond containing the Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers – paramagnetic point defects in a crystallographic lattice. Traditionally the NV center spin states are read optically. However, in their experiment, OSCAR-QUBE is using a photoelectric readout spin state method that allows for miniaturization of the device, which is beneficial for space applications. To make PDMR possible, electrodes and a microwave antenna are fabricated on top of the diamond surface. Green laser light is then shined on the diamond in between the electrodes to induce a photocurrent, followed by an applied resonant microwave frequency resonant with NV spin transitions. By observing the changes in the photoelectric signal, the team is able to determine the intensity and orientation of the external magnetic field. The aim of the projectOSCAR-QUBE’s mission is to measure the magnetic field in low Earth orbit (LEO) and evaluate and study contributing sources originating from i.e. Earth’s geodynamo, lithospheric movements, or mineral resource deposits. The characteristics of their device together with large geographical coverage of the ISS will allow the team to acquire a high resolution map of the magnetic field around the globe. Another potential source of a magnetic field is space weather events. Gaining insight into space weather can help mitigate its negative effects on not only onboard satellites but also electronic systems down on Earth. While pursuing these goals, they also aim to prove that their magnetic sensing technology can be used from inside the spacecraft. The sensor’s unique quantum properties can be utilized to decouple the sources located within the ISS by evaluating their characteristic temporal and spatial scales. This can yield technical benefits for future space missions by reducing mass and system complexity while eliminating the need for magnetometers outside the spacecraft. ElectronicsIn the following picture the electronics stack is showcased (the whole cube is 10x10x10 cm). It contains five four-layer PCBs. On the first layer of the stack we have the power board, which has the ethernet connections for communications and the power input, but also the reference ICs and the STM32 microcontroller used to control the whole stack. On the second layer we have the laser board, which has a 520 nm laser that shines the green laser on the nv-center of the diamond. The next layer on the stack is the science board, which contains the previously mentioned diamond sample, but also the microwave generator. The final board in the stack is the optical board, which detects the red light emitted by the diamond. Last but not least is the FPGA board, used to generate very precise and high-speed TTL signals for the stack as previously described.Final wordsWith the help of PCBWay we can create and further develop this awesome project. This will allow us to further strengthen the skills of the team members by developing new iterations of the project. This is a great opportunity for the team and for PCBWay to work together!https://www.esa.int/Education/Orbit_Your_Thesis/Meet_the_team_Team_OSCAR-QUBE

STAR (Student Team for Aerospace and Rocketry) is a rocketry team formed by 35 university students of the Universidad Carlos III of Madrid. We use the knowledge acquired in our courses, as well as our creativity and capacity for innovation, in the design, development, and manufacturer of reusable rockets. Together with the support of university faculty, and the collaboration of many organizations that have kindly contributed their services and resources, STAR UC3M is getting closer every day to the achievement of its objectives..The team members come principally from the schools of Aerospace, Mechanical, Industrial, Telecommunications, Electronic and Energy engineering. In turn, the association is divided into seven departments designed to cover all the aspects of the project.In this current season, our objective is to beat the altitude record for a rocket designed by a Spanish university team. Currently, this record is 1800 m. Our team wants to exceed this threshold significantly, and to do so we are aiming to exceed 4000 m of altitude. With this in mind, we are designing a supersonic vehicle manufactured using advanced alloys and composition materials. The vehicle shall be propelled buy an experimental motor developed integrally by students, and will carry a double-band telemetry system to transmit vehicle data in higher bandwidths in real-time to our terrestrial station. The vehicle will serve as a demonstration of propulsion and avionics for future developments reaching even higher goals.The only way to achieve our objective is to associate ourselves with corporate suppliers with great experience, who can provide sophisticated materials, advanced equipment, and financial resources. We are explorers of technological limits, and we follow the basic principles of teamwork in the exchange of interdisciplinary knowledge that have made most major technological advances possible. Thanks to PCBWay we are one step closer towards achieving our mission. Their support is paramount for helping projects like ours reach their goals!

We are the BlackBox 2 Team from the city university of applied sciences Bremen, Germany and part of the REXUS27 mission of the DLR and SNSA sounding rocket experiment. We are schedules to launch our experiment of the REXUS27 from Esrange, Sweden in March 2020.Our aim is to build a generic crash-safe flight data recorder for the use in sounding rockets. The flight data recorder offers the ability to store data in real-time at a data-rates of up to 1Gbit/s using Ethernet. Up to 64GB of data can be stored during a mission offering large amounts of data storage for video, photo and further high data rate experiment data. The flight recorder consists of a redundant dual computer and storage solution to ensure safe data storage. As well as an internal battery pack and 4 radio modems to allow localization after an incident. The flight recorder is housed inside a crash-absorbing casing to allow operation even after large forces occur against the flight recorder The flight recorder's postion is found using a GNSS modem. This information is then sent through a redundant satellite communition system via the Irdidium and Globalstar satellite systems as well as VHF Transmitter to allow the later recovery.To simulate use-case of the flight recorder, the experiment is housed in the nose-cone of the REXUS27 rocket and is ejected at aprox. 55Km. Prior to launch and during the flight data is already being stored from internal sensors (temperature, pressure and IMU) as well as from a place-holder rocket on-board computer to generation large amounts of data. This includes secondary sensors data as well as a high-resolution video stream from inside the nose-cone. Shortly before ejection the video stream begins storing to capture the full ejection of the nose-cone from the rocket. After ejection the experiment will continue storing sensor data and video during free-fall. Shortly before impact the radio modems begin operation and transmits the location of the experiment to our ground station. A set of redundant antennas ensure that the experiment's location can be determined and transmitted regardless of the orientation of the nose-cone after impact. The internal battery allows the location to be constantly transmitted for many hours after impact to allow the recovery team to locate the experiment and bring it back safely to the launch site.and identical model of our fight recorder will also launch on a student built sounding rocket, the AquasonicII, also launch in March, 2020.Due to the complexity involved and large number of PCBs are required to accommodate all our electronics. This is where PCBway would be of great help during our manufacturing phase.Follow our progress on Facebook and Instagramhttps://www.facebook.com/blackbox2RX27/https://www.instagram.com/blackbox2rexus27/http://homepages.hs-bremen.de/~blackbox2

About Team AntrikshTeam Antriksh is a group of enthusiastic undergraduate students from a wide array of disciplines.The primary principles that have been instrumental in the success our arduous journey so far, are fundamentally to innovate, educate and compete. Innovation involves the creativity of our members to build a rover prototype capable of performing specific tasks under given constraints. Our involvement in the community encourages students to discover the world of science and engineering.Founded in 2018, Team Antriksh worked on NASA Goddard American Astronaut Society's CanSat in the year 2018-2019.Our mission was to explore the use of auto-gyro descent control of a science payload when released from the launch vehicle for our team ranked 58th worldwide on our very first attempt at CanSat. Currently, our goal is to build and create advanced rover prototypes are to compete in Mars Society' University Rover Challenge and various similar competitions.About URCThe University Rover Challenge (URC) is a premier robotics competition open for college students across the globe. The competition challenges student teams to design and build the next generation of Mars rovers.The URC is held annually at the Mar’s Society’s Mars Desert Research Station near Hanksville, Utah. It’s an arid desert location roughly analogous to that of Mars. To qualify, teams must submit a Preliminary Design Review (PDR), as well as a more thorough System Acceptance Review (SAR). SAR is competitive review and requires both written and video components. The competition consists of four tasks:· Autonomous TraversalThe rover is given coordinates to travel towards without any driver control. Obstacles such as large boulders are overcome autonomously and without intervention. · 3Extreme Retrieval & Delivery:The rover is driven through rough terrain, and picks up items such as a tool box, and delivers it to a predetermined location. · Equipment ServicingThe rover completes several dexterous tasks such as turning knobs and plugging in connectors in this particular task. · Science CacheThe rover takes measurements at various sites, and drills into the soil to take samples. The sample is then subjected to onboard tests and is also sealed and stored for further off-board analysis followed by a presentation on the test samples and the results achieved. About SubsystemsOur team is divided into five major subsystems which ensures the smooth operation of each and every sector of the project. The primary subsystems are as follows:· Computers & AIThe Computers and AI subsystem create the brains of the rover, allowing it to be operated when it is out of sight of the driver. The group works with depth sensors, drive algorithms, inverse kinematics, computer vision, as well as interfacing with different controllers to make sure the rover operates quickly and intuitively for the driver. The software team also creates the user interfaces that the drivers use to control the rover including camera feeds, on screen controls for precision-based operations such as working with the science system, and map-based coordinate plotting. · Electronics & CommunicationThe Electronics & Communication Subsystem designs the architecture of electrical hardware that runs motors and sensors on the rove, including the GPS system. It also designs the power distribution system and writes code to interface with electronics. Typical work for a member of this subsystem includes creating printed circuit boards, soldering, and testing motor control schemes. · MechanicalThe Mechanical Subsystem creates a robust drive train to travel over the rough terrain of the competition while providing stable mounting points for the arm and science station. The group creates a digital rendering of the rover and get it manufactured into reality. The team works to fully design the base of the rover as well as the wheels. This subsystem is also responsible for the design, and construction of the rover’s robotic arm. The arm must safely lift up to 5 kg and needs to be dexterous enough to pick up tools and perform complicated actions on a control panel. Members of this subsystem learn to design to manufacture parts and perform maintenance and repairs should the need arise.· ManagementThe Management team oversees fundraising, managing funds, seeking sponsorships, ordering parts, and making travel arrangements for the team to get to competition. The team also takes pictures, creates content for the website, and presents Team Antriksh to businesses, donors, and outside organizations. The Management team emphasizes management of people, finances, and public profile, and works to provide opportunities to club members to develop valuable skills.· Science CacheThe Science Cache Subsystem is responsible for designing and building the Science Station, a module on the rover that collects and analyses soil samples, providing information such as soil temperature and water content. The subsystem also chooses and develops a set of off-rover soil tests, such as X-ray spectrometry, and provides background information to contextualize any findings during the competition.SponsorsWe seek contributions from sponsors to help finance the purchase of electronics, materials, as well as help us cover a partial cost of travelling to Utah. In addition to the helping promote the professional and educational development of our team members, we intend to promote our sponsors on our official website, as well as, on social media and on the GitHub community. We also plan on coming up with our very own Team Antriksh merchandise and would advertise the sponsors’ logos.If you would like to contribute to our project, kindly contact us on the below mentioned contact details.Contact UsTeam Antriksh,Manipal University Jaipur,Dehmi Kalan,Near GVK Toll Plaza,Jaipur-Ajmer Express Highway, Jaipur, Rajasthan 303 – 007+91 95 380 90 504rover.antrikshlabs.space You could also e-mail us at: teamantriksh@antrikshlabs.space https://www.instagram.com/team__antriksh/ https://twitter.com/AntrikshTeam https://www.facebook.com/teamantriksh/

We are a group of 10 students from the Space Systems and Space Surveillance Laboratory of Sapienza University of Rome currently involved in the European REXUS / BEXUS project organized by the German Aerospace Center, the Swedish National Space Agency and the European Space Agency.The aim of the experiment "Tracking and Attitude Radio-based Determination In Stratosphere" (TARDIS) is to develop an alternative navigation system based on digital processing of the VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) radio-navigation system signal. The radio-navigation systems signal processing can provide a position and attitude estimation for stratospheric vehicles, incrementing the reliability of navigation systems for the future ying and stratospheric vehicles. Our TARDIS experiment, the only Italian among the selected, will be launched next October aboard the BEXUS 28 stratospheric balloon reaching a maximum altitude of 32 km, from the Esrange base in Kiruna (Sweden).The main objectives of the TARDIS experiment are to determine in real time the position and the attitude of the BEXUS gondola throughdigital-processing of the VOR signal and to demonstrate target pointingcapabilities tracking a VOR ground station trough a steerable antenna.

Our rocket is designed and build from the buttom-up by ourselves, it consits of serveral sub-systems: Engine bay, Tanks, Fluid system, Electronics bay, payload and recovery system. For this we have a homebuild avionics system. As it can be seen on the attached picture. The avionics system, code named Robust Internal Controller for High Altitude Rocket Dolken (RICHARD), consits of serveral stackable PCB's: Telemetry board, Sensor board, mainboard, Actuatorboard, PSU1 and PSU2. The picture below shows the first version of the blockdiagram of the system. We see the main board, sensor board, actuator board, telemetry board. PSU1 and PSU2 was added later in the process. The goal for the electronics team is to have a fully functioning stackable PCB design by the end of April, that is possible to gather sensor data, actuate servos and solenoids, and send all that data to the ground control system using the telemetry system. Also this system will replace the old system on the test stand seen on the hotfire video, where the demonstration engine was tested. With our account danstar.dtu@gmail.com it can be seen that we already have ordered serveral 60X60mm PCB's from you (which is also seen on the picture), but we are ready to take it to the next level with you since we believe your products and services are unquestionably the best. As stated above, all of these pcb's are going to be used in the Spaceport America Cub competition, thus we believe that the project is within your values for a sponsorship, therefore we hope that you will sponsor our couse and our project for the seconds revision of the PCB's and the next to come. We can Offer PCBway a place on our sponsorship page https://www.danstar.dk/collaboration/, a logo on our team shirts, a logo on the second revision of PCB's (of course) and a logo on our rocket. Furthermore, we will as usual share our sponsorship and other news with you on our facebook profile here: https://www.facebook.com/DanSTAR.DTU/. If you need more information about the project such as the github repo, please contact us on the mail fsb@danstar.dk or danstar.dtu@gmail.comKind Regards,Fadi Bunni - CashierDanish Student Association for Rocketryfsb@danstar.dkwww.danstar.dk--------------------------------------------------Below are more pictures of the project: The rocket (as of now it is not fully assembled)The newly designed 3D printed (in metal) rocket engine (cut through)Here we see where DanSTAR works which is in DTU Skylab (incubator place for univeristy Engineers), also we see the parashute for the rocket.First order from PCBway of the Mainboard (many hours went into this board, and many more is to come for the rest of the PCB stack)Test stand designed and build by DanSTAR, used for testing rocket engines.DanSTAR's first ever successful demonstration engine testing. (This is something we are very proud of)

Open Source Satellite LoRa RecieverThe project consists in creating an open source and easy to use LoRa SX1278 powered ground station in order to expand access to LoRa IoT telecommunication for students worldwide. The unit includes a 2.2" TFT LCD, an SD card reader, an integrated FTDI chip and a rotary encoder / button interface. This simple but intuitive design will allow the reception of LoRa packets using a standard SMA antenna and will be shown on a clear 2.2" display.Our goal is to democratize access to in-orbit IoT telecommunications, for students and individuals worldwide.Fossa Systems stands for Free Open source Software and Aerospace, thus all our designs are free to use an available online.We thank PCB way for giving us the opportunity to use these services.The Fossa Team.

### DESCRIPTION ( Introduce yourserlf and your project)I'm student in Antalya Anatolian High School.I'm 17 years old. I'm robotics and physics lover. I joined variable robotics competitions on my country before. I wrote my project for Tubitak research competition. I designed pcb parts for small satellite. My satellite will able to take photos , get sensor datas and send us.### TECHNICAL DETAILS (With project photos)This system have 2 arm core to need programming. System consist ;Batttery control boardsolar cell board, sd card board , main board, camera interface board , camera board. And i will program to like that code blocks### Words to PCBWayi need pcb's for prototyping my project. After prototyping project will to be exhibited:)
