Avionics is the subsection of the Prometheus project that works on the electronic system that enables us to launch, control, and recover the rocket. The electronics system currently consists of a GPS, altimeters, batteries, and a custom-built PCB, all of which are housed in our 3D-printed electronics bay (or E-bay). To achieve what we are tasked to complete we have to go through layered stages of brainstorming, designing, and redundant testing on all of our components so that they are reliable for launch day.
