Balloonerang ended 2018 with its first ever tethered balloon launch.
On the morning of December 2, 2018, the team woke up bright and early to test a quarter’s worth of progress.
To see how we prepared for this launch, check out our behind the scenes video here:
This launch featured a new and improved 3D-printed payload design, as well as a beautifully fabricated board and improved code.
For the new year, Balloonerang has many new tests planned. One goal we hope to achieve is to better understand the aerodynamic challenges posed by flying a payload in high velocity winds.
We will continue to keep you updated on the progress and adventures to come!
