Angelfire

Altitude: 10,300

Motors: M1419

Project Goal: "Kate" will be onboard for this flight. Kate is a computer synthesized female voice that narrates the flight in real time by making call outs of altitude, speed, direction, distance, descent rate and so on. The data for these call outs is supplied by an onboard GPS unit. I hope to connect Kate into the PA system so that everyone can listen in. She has been a big hit at previous launches.
