At university, I am a member of our rocketry team. During my first semester with the team, I joined the HPR division, which builds and launches level 1 high powered rockets. That semester we used LOC IV kits from Apogee Rockets and G class motors. Working in groups of three, we each assembled the rocket and then simulated the launch using OpenRocket in order to estimate the timing of parachute deployment. We launched the rockets in February of 2024 and captured the onboard launch videos with a small action camera.
