The purpose of this project is to design and implement a launch and flight control system to expand the capabilities of Oregon State's Hybrid Rocket team. A hybrid rocket uses both a solid fuel and liquid oxidizer allowing for a safer and more controlled motor burn. This presents a number of challenges not found on other university rocketry teams such as pre-flight remote oxidizer filling, ignition timing with oxidizer injection, mid-flight oxidizer flow control, and real-time video monitoring. It is for these reasons that we aim to create a safe, reliable, and expandable launch and flight control platform with robust hardware and software components that can be used by Hybrid teams for years to come.
