[quote]Hackers [Navic] and [K.o.D] have fitted an Arduino Pro Mini and an array of components into an off the shelf rocketry kit to create a guided model rocket, taking the whole idea of Arduino-based space technology to another level
The Arduino reads signals from internally mounted accelerometers, and adjustls balsa fins (via 4 micro servos) to correct the rocket’s flight path. Due to the nature of model rocketry, the active guidance is limited to the 3 seconds that the rocket is traveling upwards. [/quote]
Ok, non impensierirà lo scudo antimissilistico americano, ma l’idea spacca!
