It will: * Have a menu allowing the user to set a volume of helium to pump or a mass of balloon to lift (Integrating the balloon burst spreadsheet from <http://cuspaceflight.soc.srcf.net/calc/>) * Have a screen (2×16 LCD with LED backlight) displaying helium pumped so far, target amount of helium and current flowrate * Have a knob for adjusting helium flowrate * Have a sexy box with wheel… text/html 2012-01-24T21:18:50+00:00 chrism http://www.cusf.co.uk/wiki/doku.php?id=arduino_tracker&rev=1327439930&do=diff Weasel Arduino Tracker ---------- Intro ---------- The aim of this project is to create a beginner's high altitude balloon tracker. We hope to document our code well enough that other users will also be able to follow our work. The tracker uses an Arduino, which is a low cost, USB programmable microprocessor. We also are using an FSA03 gps module, as this happens to be what we had access to, and a standard radio transmitter.
