New to Pico Ballooning


Harold
 

Just wanted to say hello to everyone and ask a question.
I am just now getting into Pico Ballooning and want to build my own tracker w/WISPr
Is there anywhere on the web that shows how to build a Pico payload with 'off the shelf items.
(Not using a custom board). I know it is a weight thing so maybe it is not possible.
I have built quite a lot a amateur radio kits but no SMT parts.
Everything I have found with Arduino off the shelf seems like the full sized stuff for camera balloons
not floaters.? ?Any help would be appreciated.
?

Thanks,

Harold? ?N8RQJ


 

Here is a project that I have been working on and off for a few years.? I have flown it 5 times.? It hasn't made it around the world yet.? I have three more ready to go up soon.? I will put the software in git by the end of the week.
