& static fires.

Every campaign, logged in the open. For each run: what we fired, what we measured, and what it changed on the vehicle.

STATIC-FIRE-06
TYPEPropulsion and TVC static fire
DATESunday · August 9, 2026
STATUSSuccess

Full 90-second sequence run outdoors. A 13-step command staircase up to the qualified 92 % ceiling, flown together with a complete TVC servo programme: random pointing, circular sweeps, then left-right and right-left scans. Telemetry recorded twice over, on the ground station through USB and on the RESILIENCE microSD, to validate the onboard logging path end to end.

DATEThursday · June 25, 2026
STATUSSuccess

Two campaigns the same evening. Each motor fired on its own to trace a thrust shortfall seen on the previous run, then fired as a pair once the propeller configuration was corrected. Airflow around the test stand was reworked between runs.
