NASA Space Flight Design Challenge

A team of mechanical engineering students at WVU Tech have taken on the challenge of the Space Flight Design Challenge (SFDC).The purpose of this report is to overview the equipment being used for this challenge and how it is being used.When we were given this challenge we received a TubeSat kit which is our starting platform and from there we chose to design our payload based on an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer and IMU.Now we are programming and interpreting the results given, which is included in this paper.I.

Abstract

A team of mechanical engineering students at WVU Tech have taken on the challenge of the Space Flight Design Challenge (SFDC).The purpose of this report is to overview the equipment being used for this challenge and how it is being used.When we were given this challenge we received a TubeSat kit which is our starting platform and from there we chose to design our payload based on an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer and IMU.Now we are programming and interpreting the results given, which is included in this paper.I.
