So, about the upload schedule... I have been very busy with school over the past year having just finished my GCSEs, and I haven't had much time to work on rockets (let alone videos). I will upload a few more times by the end of the year, and I will try to post update videos more consistently. In the meantime, I will be preparing to launch the rocket that this computer will be flying on, and after that I will post a video about the launch and the details of the rocket. I hope you enjoyed the video! PS. Sorry for the re-upload. I messed up the audio on the previous version.

Personally, I don't want to watch videos which are uploaded just to meet some "upload schedule." I much prefer videos made because the author had something they wanted to share. Thanks for sharing your progress with us.

Добрый день. Вы молодец что занимаетесь и работаете в области электроники. Скажите пожалуйста, в какой программе и вы рисовали схему в этом видео?

Glad to see updates on the rocket, great job! : )

Really impressive. I echo Bob’s comments. A fantastic multi disciplined project. Good luck with the integration. Look forward to the launch

Very nice Job! I aspire to come as close to this accomplishment as you have. Also I like the channel refrences in the description.

Your efforts always inspire us.Thanks for sharing & best of luck for your upcoming projects.

This is amazing Jacob. The breadth of this project is truly beyond your years. SBC development, programming, interface integration, 3D design and parts production at this level is certainly beyond B.Eng level. I can’t wait to see the continued development, simulation debugging in prep for flights tests. Well done !! P.S. Love the new logo,

This is amazing. Great job!

great job!Thanks! I am interested how i created gimbal mechanism

Raytheon approves of this design

that pretty advanced for an amature rocket

Wow, very cool. I made a STM32 (F7) flight computer for my model rocket too! Btw I made most of the soldering just with a regular iron -- never used a paste. It is easy if you have a proper flux. The only difficult thing was a gyro and barometer -- reflow was required because contacts are not accessible. I also highly recommend you do get rid of Arduino and go with STM32 HAL or CMSIS. It is possible to go with Arduino, but it limits you a lot in reality.

I tinker a bit with Arduino, what about something like Teeny ? Could still use PlatformIO/Arduino IDE and a lot more powerful than the microcontrollers used by the Arduino Nano/Uno/...

Great job. bro . what tools to design schematic... is very cool.

Sorry for the question, which AHRS you used? Then how do you compensate for centrifugal forces in flight?

cool

👏👏👏

Hmmmm any plan to open source the project. will be good to tamper with it and learn and improve things.

Anyway thanx and keep it up :))))

What is the function of the flying wheel on the rocket?

Your table top grid cover. What is it called?? I have tried searching on Google but couldn't find any product

how can you stabelize the rocket towards the correct path for moonlanding after you leave earth gravityfield, the sensors wont work?

@jacobthornhill

Жыл бұрын

I’m afraid I hardly know how they work myself! I can give an outline on what my code does, but I can’t really go into the maths. The basic idea is to start with an identity quaternion (1+0i+0j+0k) which represents a zeroed orientation. At each timestep you construct a new quaternion from the gyro measurements multiplied by delta time, which represents the change in orientation the rocket has experienced since the previous timestep. You then multiply the first quaternion by this new one, which yields the rockets orientation at this timestep. I then convert back to Euler angles as that is the format most useful. Conversions: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_between_quaternions_and_Euler_angles Multiplication: stackoverflow.com/questions/19956555/how-to-multiply-two-quaternions Hope this helps!
