Clarkson rocketry avionics subteam is responsible for the flight computers and parachutes. We are designing the recovery system to recover the rocket from 10,000 feet. The avionics are responsible for a telemetry downlink to allow tracking of the rocket

Clarkson Rocketry has been desiging and building this year’s flight vehicle. This year’s vehicle will be comprised of in-house made carbon fiber structrual tubing and centering rings, fiberglass fins, and internal supports. The team is adamant on furthering the understanding of composite techniques and advanced manufacturing processes.

Clarkson Rocketry’s airbrakes subteam has been developing an active altitude control system for our competion rocket, that allows us to precisely control the apogee our rocket will reach during it’s flight.

The Modelling and Simulation Team (Modsim) is responsible for programming the code that ensures the rocket successfully reaches apogee as well as simulates the entire trajectory of the rocket.
