S.A.P.H.E.
This was a projection if the launch was today 10/27/11. It travels 150 miles! WOW.
SPOT GPS

I went out and bought a Spot gps(the one i posted about previously) and found that I have to pay 100$ and to use it. Also to get it to track its position every 10 min. is and extra 50$.
Design Brief

I just started to get my ideas down on paper, making my first design brief. It needs some work but you have to start somewhere!
Solar charger

I was making a solar charger to help keep the camera charged in flight but the panel i found out i was using wasn’t putting out enough amps to charge the camera or a phone. So…NOTE TO SELF talk to Mr.Better about a panel that will put out 1amp (100mA) minimum.
Mentor

So many questions and finding many without answers, I cant wait until I can find a mentor to help me out! Possibly a local weather station?

could get a little pricey but… if I can get a grant from Rei they sell these as well as valuable camera equipment I could defiantly use!
Grants!
Trying to get a grant to help push for this project to be a little more technology advanced. Possible organisations…
