  • For over five years now, I have been developing model rockets from
    scratch in my spare time and on my own.
    As a result, I designed, assembled, and tested several rockets and
    systems. In this portfolio, however, I am only going to describe my most
    notable and recent developments. This video is intended to briefly outline my portfolio of work.
    Developments covered in this video:
    Buffalo L, a model rocket aimed at achieving a propulsive landing, and Buffalo mini, one of the lightest thrust-vector-controlled model rockets ever. Furthermore, I introduce my self-programmed visualization software for post-flight analysis, my rocket launchpad, and my graduation project.
    If you have further questions on any of my projects,
    please leave a comment down below :)

Not to shit on you, as an American it's frustrating especially when 7/10 times they're only here for our education then take their skills back home; so American companies and the public doesn't even benefit from the education we subsidized - were forced to hope to benefit from the education we pay for indirectly through favorable global economics. Especially when they only get the scholarship because they are from another country - an American student with similar or even a marginally better application would be overlooked for it. And it's at all levels: college, university, public, private, ivy league, don't matter.

      Go to your local university and look for a rocket club or any kind of rocket club.
      Pick up a textbook on rocket science.
      Also take a look at some communities on Google that are building model rockets and copy what they are doing.
      Learn physics kinematics (pick up a university physics textbook), basic c, c++, basic electronics learn how to solid model/3d print if applicable, know where to buy parts. The more you know the more ready you will feel.
      Then get building, know what you want to build. Understand the scope of your work
      It honestly depends how accurate you want to make your rocket: if you are going for nasa levels, you may need to implement the rocket equation, optimize aerodynamics, heat transfer, deformations of materials. Etc
      Good luck!

    for attitude measurements are you only using the gyroscope or are you using a kalman filter with the accelerometer and magnetometer ?
    I have a LSM6DS032 gyroscope board. I've used the angular velocities to obtain my euler angles through quaternions but at odd angles or after shaking the unit vigorously, the angles don't return to their usual values.

    • @jmspaceR
      @jmspaceR  7 місяців тому

      I am only using the gyroscope, as the sensor package I use (BMI088) does not feature a magnetometer. Further, the accelerometer measurements are not feasible in flight as they are effected by the thrust of the rocket engine. Yet, I use the accelerometer to calibrate orientation at the launchpad.

    • @julianchee2894
      @julianchee2894 7 місяців тому

      How robust is your gyroscope at odd angles coupled with rotations? A TVC rocket’s flight path is rather slow so it might not be a problem. But does your gyro return to its usual 0,0,0 after many repeated rotations about each axes ?

      I don't know about that, the rocket seems pretty different from everything else, especially the "landing attempt feasability" part. Also I don't think MIT really looks for people that discover "new stuff", like they said "we’re not looking for applicants to have cured all infectious disease in the world by the time they’re 15".

    • @jmspaceR

      Here are a few points why you might wanna re-consider your opinion on my developments.
      Most of the mechanisms I developed are first of its kind.
      -The TVC is nothing you have seen before on any other channel. It uses a rack and gear approach compared to the other varients that came before it.
      -I have to use an engine cluster compared to any other rocket channel, as those are the highest power engines available here.
      (Engine clusters come with various additional complications on TVC stabilization)
      -The parachute deployment mechanisms are unique. The ones that I used on Buffalo mini and Buffalo L are a design inspired by nature, and came as a result of over five years of experimenting with different parachute designs. The parachute deployment system used on Buffalo MAX is also unique as it uses a sliding plate that is loaded with springs and held back by a cable tie, which is then burned through by a heating wire. Both approaches were never used by other model rocket developers before.
      -My rockets are fully 3D printed, while most others are implemented in a cardboard housing.
      -The landing legs, the airbrakes, and the descent fins deployment mechanisms are one of its kind and completely new.
      -I was the first to implement an anemometer on the launchpad to create auto launch abort in high wind scenarios.
      -I created Buffalo mini one the lightest TVC controlled model rocket at the time, with less than 210g dry mass. (Oviously a lot of innovation is required to minimize the weight to this degree)
      -And I created the first post-flight anylzes software for model rocket launches (over four years ago)
      Finnaly, a classmate and I did a first of its kind implementation of a radar in model rocket as a means of establishing relative altitude altimeter system as our graduation project. We used an industry-grade radar that is usually implemented on cars for cruise control, and cooperate with a leading cooperation on the implementation.
      If that's not research and innovation I don't now what is?
      Of course there will be a reason why they didn't accept me. However, I don't think it is because of a lack of research and "finding out new stuff", because I found out a lot fo new stuff over the last couple of years.
