Hey there!
I've been interested in rocketry for some time, but only recently started getting into it more seriously. I had an Estes Electron-Beam launch controller that had started malfunctioning, and I decided I needed more umph if I was going to get into composite motors, so I built my own controller!
It's not very pretty, but the electronics are solid. I'm an EE student, so I understand electricity pretty well. I will be re-doing the box/casing later so it doesn't look like garbage. I will also be adding a fuse for the logic switches and a light/indicator of some sort to make sure the igniter is connected properly.
