Peregrine Explorer is our first attempt at NASA University Student Launch Initiative. It is a 4in Fiberglass Vehicle that is able to loft ~2lbs of payload to a target altitude of 5000ft.
Subscale Demonstration flight was completed on 10/19/2024.
Due to weather an other delays, we sadly had to resign from the competition.
The project is not done though, we are planning at least 1 more flight to test our Altitude Control System (ACS).
