PENGUIN

Rocket Engine Testbed

PENGUIN is a modular and mobile testbed for our self-developed and researched propulsion systems. It was used for developing the booster for AVES, AVES II and for the development of a hybrid rocket engine. To verify our calculations, we use various sensors, such as pressure, temperature, and force.

DODO

Prototype

Project DODO is a prototype and the first rocket ASTG developed, the objective was to gain hands-on experience.
The project got cancelled, due to manufacturing delays and the time-sensitive schedule of the successor project AVES, which has to be ready for EuRoC 2021.
DODOĀ never flew, just like the bird it got named after. Nevertheless, the experience the team gained through the development was essential for AVES.
