The rocket PCB has been developed following the altimeter project. The altimeter project was a hand build combination of different development PCBs:
- Microcontroller
- Battery
- Sensor boards
- Electrical connections
- Mechanical adapter to rocket
V1.0.0
This has been combined into a small PCB with connectors for the microcontroller board and the sensor board. As the sensor with display was rather heavy in the altimeter project, the controller board of choice with an ESP32 controller and a battery charge controller without display was the Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32C3:
As a sensor board the multi sensor board GY-86 with 10 DOF was chosen:
The two development board are mounted on the newly designed RocketPCB v1.0.0:
