STAR UC3M OBC & SENSORS

STAR (Student Team for Aerospace and Rocketry) is a rocketry team formed by 35 university students of the Universidad  Carlos III of Madrid. We use the knowledge acquired in our courses, as well as our creativity and capacity for innovation, in the design, development, and manufacturer of reusable rockets. Together with the support of university faculty, and the collaboration of many organizations that have kindly contributed their services and resources, STAR UC3M is getting closer every day to the achievement of its objectives.

The team members come principally from the schools of Aerospace, Mechanical, Industrial, Telecommunications, Electronic and Energy engineering.  In turn, the association is divided into seven departments designed to cover all the aspects of the project.


In this current season, our objective is to beat the altitude record for a rocket designed by a Spanish university team. Currently, this record is 1800 m. Our team wants to exceed this threshold significantly, and to do so we are aiming to exceed 4000 m of altitude. With this in mind, we are designing a supersonic vehicle manufactured using advanced alloys and composition materials. The vehicle shall be propelled buy an experimental motor developed integrally by students, and will carry a double-band telemetry system to transmit vehicle data in higher bandwidths in real-time to our terrestrial station. The vehicle will serve as a demonstration of propulsion and avionics for future developments reaching even higher goals.



The only way to achieve our objective is to associate ourselves with corporate suppliers with great experience, who can provide sophisticated materials, advanced equipment, and financial resources. We are explorers of technological limits, and we follow the basic principles of teamwork in the exchange of interdisciplinary knowledge that have made most major technological advances possible. 


Thanks to PCBWay we are one step closer towards achieving our mission. Their support is paramount for helping projects like ours reach their goals!
