Getting close! almost 8 years later and I see the faint glow of the light at the end of the tunnel!
Rocket engine is finally stable! I havent had a catastrophic failure for over a year now. However there have been several premature shut-downs. Luckily I have been able to track them down and most have been software related. 2 of them where fuel related which required some simple redesigning. Im doing this all on my own. I had to learn how to code so my skills kinda stink which doesnt help but im getting better. However...
Guidance/science suit/engine electronics survivability <--- Is that even a word? has been a pain waaay worse than actually making an engine from scratch... It seems that a cold vacuum mixed with vibration has a horrible effect on electronics. All I know is im not Im not doing this right...
Could you guys point me in a direction where I could get information on this?
Thanks!
