    Arduino Radio Transceiver

    Hi, I am wanting to transmit GPS coordinates and altitude from an Arduino onboard a model rocket that will go 1km high, to another Arduino on the ground. The purpose is just to assist in finding the rocket once it lands. I was needing something cheap but also not too large (about 3-4cm). I was...

    Long Burning (7+ sec) PVC Solid rocket motor, around 8-12N thrust?

    Hi, I'm working on a project, to make a self landing hobby rocket, but with a solid rocket motor. I would like it to be a slow burnin one preferably with a stable thrust througout the burn time of it. I want to be able to make it at home (obviously I would order ingreedients), so that I can...
