Default AV Bay Complete

Well Christmas was wonderful as Santa brought a StratoLogger CF for the AV bay and I had a little time off to work on the Stealth.

The Binder AV bay is 14" long so there is plenty of room to comfortably fit the altimeter, battery, and wiring for the switch. I debated installing a secondary altimeter as there is plenty of room on the sled, but don't feel it's necessary. This was be a level 2 rocket max and it will have motor eject for the drogue as a back up.

We chose the Dog House rocketry charge wells that have electrical connections running through the anchor bolts. This is a nice feature as you don't have to install a connector block on the cap.

The Binder AV bay included a screw type switch that seems to work easy enough.

Now have to wait for spring to test the ejection charges!

Happy New Year!

Matt and Nate
