Team America Rocketry Challenge
Model Rocket Design & Flight Testing
Led Salem High School's team in designing, building, and flight-testing a model rocket.
Design and build
I coordinated the team through design, construction, and launch preparation. The goal was to build a rocket we could fly consistently enough to evaluate its performance across successive tests.
Flight testing
After each test flight, we reviewed the rocket's behavior and discussed which changes to make before the next launch. I helped the team use those observations to assess stability and repeatability.
