Ballooino II: Rapport de projet et vol vidéo maintenant disponible en ligne

Editorial du DARC 15:09:14

Le 7 Juin, le projet de ballon stratosphérique "Balloino II" a été lancé en l'air avec succès par une équipe d'étudiants de l'école secondaire Antoine Collège de Neunkirchen-Seelscheid et les membres de l'OV Eitorf (G54). Le rapport final sur le projet peut maintenant être téléchargé sur le site Web de la G54 OV.

La charge utile de radio amateur a été récupéré le 16 Juillet à une distance de 105 km du point de départ . Depuis ce temps, le vol et les données ont été analysées et le rapport final a été produit.
Cela peut être trouvé sur le site Web de la G54 UV: http://www.darc.de/distrikte/g/54.
Une compilation de l'enregistrement vidéo de la caméra embarquée a été mis en ligne:

ANNONCE BALLON AMATEUR du BRAQ (QUEBEC) le 30 août 2014

Indicatif : BRAQ 2014-6

Date du vol :   Prochain Lancement le 30 Aout 2014

A l'occasion du SOTA, nous lancerons un ballon avec notre répétitrice samedi prochain

Vol utilisant un ballon de 800g. pour emmener notre répétitrice à une altitude de près de 90,000' pour un vol de près de 2 heures .
Par contre si les conditions ne sont pas bonnes, nous tenterons tout de même de lancer la mission, si nous pouvons gonfler le ballon au sol, mais l'altitude ne sera que d'environ 40,000 pieds , et le vol beaucoup plus court selon les conditions du courant Jet qui nous forcerait à mettre plus d'hélium
