Secondary mission

Our secondary mission is to demonstrate that we can change the direction of CanSat using the parachute.


Modifying the trajectory


The To do this, we modified the shape of the parachute to give it better manoeuvrability in the air.
In addition, to modify the trajectory of the can, we used a system of small motors, which operate some of the wires that connect the parachute to the can. Finally, we wrote the code to operate the motors as a function of altitude in a detailed flight plan.
