Goals:
- Get to Black Rock
- Launch the rocket
- Don't kill anyone
- Get the rocket back in one piece
So, this means that the critical subsystems are the launch tower computer (LTC), launch tower CAN node, and recovery node. That's it!
Sub-Goals
That said, we of course want to get some real data from the launch. Thus our sub-goals:
- Test the ARRL 802.11b telemetry link.
- Test the 2m emergency uplink.
- Get the ATV system working with GPS data overlay.
- Get GPS and inertial data.
And this is where a lot of the work is ;)
Things for the Checklist:
- Ask everyone to turn off their 2.4GHz things, incl. microwaves, X-10, ATV,
- Look for 2.4GHz stuff on a network analyzer?
