Arduino Rocket Flight Computer

This paper describes the construction of a flight computer, using a small model rocket, which is built with materials that can be easily obtained. In this context, a comparison of the flight data with those of the simulation has been performed. Based on this framework, an introduction to the flight computer will be given and then its construction together with all its sensors and its programming will be described.Moreover, a detailed analysis of the rocket used will be given. In particular, the design concept will be presented, with the help of a computer program (OpenRocket), in conjunction with the materials used, the procedure followed for its construction, and finally, the test launches carried out up to the final launch. Entering the last chapter, the flight data of the simulation will be presented, followed by the data of the launch that was carried out and analysed using a numerical computational and programming language. Finally, a comparison between the two data sets will be made.
