| 3 | 1 | J. Simmons | |
| 4 | 1 | J. Simmons | h2. Unsorted list of ideas |
| 5 | 1 | J. Simmons | |
| 6 | 1 | J. Simmons | * DIGITAL FABRICATION OF COMPONENTS AND MECHANISMS |
| 7 | 1 | J. Simmons | * AN OPEN PLATFORM OF STANDARDS (Like LEGOS) |
| 8 | 1 | J. Simmons | * PAYLOAD MOUNT FOR ARDUINOS |
| 9 | 1 | J. Simmons | * UPGRADED ELECTRONICS PAYLOAD STRUCTURES - LIKE FOR FIN-FACING CAMERAS |
| 10 | 1 | J. Simmons | * FABRICATION IN MAKERSPACES WITH LOCAL TOOLS |
| 11 | 1 | J. Simmons | * EXPERIMENT WITH DIFFERENT MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES |
| 12 | 1 | J. Simmons | * SOFTWARE TOOLS - CODECAD AND OPENSOURCECAD (CADQUERY) |
| 13 | 1 | J. Simmons | * COLLAPSIBLE AND EXPANDABLE MECHANISMS (“ORAGAMI ROCKET”) |
| 14 | 1 | J. Simmons | * THE “BLACK BOX” FOR MODEL ROCKET (CHEAP, DURABLE, RECOVERABLE, LIKE www.carbonorigins.com) |
| 15 | 1 | J. Simmons | * HARDWARE TOOLS AND JIGS |
| 16 | 1 | J. Simmons | * SCALABLE PARTS, AND THE ASSOCIATED STANDARDS FOR USING THEM |
| 17 | 1 | J. Simmons | * SOFTWARE - STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS TOOLS (LIKE FEA, NASTRAN, etc.) |
| 18 | 1 | J. Simmons | * (linked to propulsion as well) PROPULSION TEST STAND STRUCTURE |
| 19 | 1 | J. Simmons | * (stretching outside the box a bit) SCALE MODEL OF A SIMULATED LAUNCH COMPLEX. FULL GROUND OPS SIMULATION |
| 20 | 1 | J. Simmons | * (linked in to aerodynamics as well) FIN DESIGN BASED ON J’S MASTERS THESIS (OPTIMIZING SUPERSONIC STRUCTURES TO PREVENT FLUTTER) |
| 21 | 1 | J. Simmons | * STRUCTURAL TESTING (DESTRUCTIVE OR OTHERWISE) |
| 22 | 1 | J. Simmons | * STRUCTURAL DESIGN BEST PRACTICES FOR MANUFACTURING, AND OPERATIONS, (AKA LIFECYCLE CONSIDERATION) |
| 23 | 1 | J. Simmons | * STRUCTURAL INTERACTIONS WITH THE GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT |
| 24 | 1 | J. Simmons | * MATERIALS TESTING FORM AN ENVIRONMENTAL PERSPECTIVE (UV, THERMAL, (eventually) VACUUM |
| 25 | 1 | J. Simmons | * STRUCTURAL INCORPORATION OF A “MISSION OBJECTIVE” (like rube goldburg, or scientific experiment) |
| 26 | 1 | J. Simmons | * (linked to electrical/power) HOW TO INCORPORATE POWER STORAGE INTO STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS |
| 27 | 1 | J. Simmons | * ADDRESSING REUSABILITY CONCERNS WITH RESPECT TO STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS |
| 28 | 1 | J. Simmons | * HIGH-RELIABILITY RECOVERY SYSTEM (MECHANISMS) |
| 29 | 1 | J. Simmons | * (building on Legos idea) Modular model rocket kit (1 kit, several rockets; maybe based around "NARTREK":http://www.nar.org/model-rocket-info/nartek-skills-program/ missions) |
| 30 | 3 | Greg Moran | * Structural Analysis software for both dynamic and static analysis |
| 31 | 3 | Greg Moran | * Launch Pad design/structures |
| 32 | 3 | Greg Moran | * Go extermely small size (Just how small can I get it?) |
| 33 | 3 | Greg Moran | > * sharing files, etc |
| 34 | 3 | Greg Moran | > * educational/entertainment |
| 35 | 3 | Greg Moran | > * very open source |
| 36 | 3 | Greg Moran | * Evaluation/research of tools and machines required to build rockets at scale we are looking at -> Toolset analysis |
| 37 | 3 | Greg Moran | * Make sure the materials research covers non-obvious choices (to us at least) like composites, etc |
| 38 | 3 | Greg Moran | * unconventional rockets, like rocket/jet-powered rotors |
| 39 | 3 | Greg Moran | * |
| 40 | 3 | Greg Moran | * |
