Nesaru’s next flight is set to test a new rocket to ground real-time telemetry system.  Nesaru will be reporting its altitude, and systems status to a ground base station during her entire launch through landing phases of flight.

The goal is to test & develop an in-flight telemetry system for future rocket projects.  The tests will progress in stages to lead to the development of a more capable (advanced) sytem to be used in the upcoming XR-10L rocket due to make its maiden launch by 2016.

Telemetry transmitter installed, time to put Nesaru back together!
