Pretty good it was really good, looks like you tuned the Tvc. Nice job keep it up.

This is awesome. I´m starting on software for my own TVC and i´m wondering if you know any good resources for learning? Specifically about how to code the IMU (integration, filters, quats etc) Thanks in advance.

Thanks!, I would love to help but I am not that educated in the software side of things in order for me to provide guidance. Someone online has been helping me with this project so I haven't used many online resources and I am still learning. I would recommend starting simple and not over complicating it. I am using just a Proportional Controller so it is not a full PID. As for resources my best guess for where you can get help is the r/rocketry Discord and Reddit pages. You might be able to get help successfully there. If you need any help with the hardware side of things like the TVC mount, components for the avionics, etc I would be happy to help!.

Nice project, seems like the rocket either needs a diet or a bigger motor. What are you using?

[@CSK_Control_Systems]

I am using as Estes D12-0 for the low altitude test launches so it is meant to only go 20 feet or so. Maybe the rocket should go on a diet for the future flights that go higher lol.

It was TRYING! 😱😁👍👍🇺🇸

[@CSK_Control_Systems]

Indeed it was

what's the rocket's dry mass (without motor)?

[@CSK_Control_Systems]

Roughly 720 grams, Not 100% sure

[@Prateek1234q.]

Motor underperformed otherwise everything was perfect ❤

Hello there fellow rocketeeAre you Lightning at the end of the motor of is this you’re own fuel

[@CSK_Control_Systems]

This is not my own fuel, I used an Estes D12-0 for this flight
