MILESTONE: Flight-Version Prototype

Chipstar prototype soldered.
That´s the (semi)final version of the actual chipstar board in the flight version.
Some small modifications may be made depending if we´ll deploy of a CubeSat or a PocketQub.

This is a great, when do you think you will have these ready to play with?

The first series board (8 pieces on one PCB) is already in production.
I´ll do a partplacing with stencil first - if everything goes well, then it can go into the placing machine. Shoud be a matter of a few weeks.

Awesome, I'm thinking of setting up a SatNogs ground stations I'm located in Australia, so i may be able to help you with communication with the satellite.

Cool. The SatNogs should be good to get the signal.

Thanx :) I´ll make a balloon test soon. I´ll be away for vacation for one week, but then I´ll prepare a helium balloon to test the TX power. Calculations are ok, but the reality is kinda different, so it is better to find out how the system behaves in reality.

Are you sure? yes | no
