** Estes E Spacer Ring (PN 35005)
** Estes E Engine Block (PN 30174-S) - modified
** Estes E Engine Hook (PN 35022)
h3. Data Acquisition (DAQ) System
The items in the DAQ system are described on the "wiki":https://opendesignengine.net/projects/shepard-ts/wiki/Detailed_Design_v1_0#Data-Acquisition-DAQ-System .
* The "Arduino Uno":http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardUno used in this project was purchased from "Radio Shack":http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12268262 , but can also be purchased from vendors like "SparkFun":https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11021 . It can also be purchased from the "Arduino Store":http://store.arduino.cc/ww/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=11_12&products_id=195 for around the same price if you are willing to wait 15 days shipping time. The Uno used in the version 1.0 test stand prototype was purchased at Radio Shack.
* The "Arduino ProtoShield":http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoProtoShield can be purchased from the "Arduino Store":http://store.arduino.cc/ww/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=11_5&products_id=203 for around $10 more than you'd pay from U.S. based vendors. Similar boards can be purchased from many vendors including "AdaFruit":https://www.adafruit.com/products/51 for $20 including shipping. The ProtoShield used in the version 1.0 of the test stand prototype was a true Arduino product, and was purchased at Radio Shack for about $20. Not all Radio Shacks will have the ProtoShield in stock though.
* The Force Sensing Resistor (FSR) used in version 1.0 of the test stand was purchased from "Trossen Robotics":http://www.trossenrobotics.com/store/p/6496-1-5-Inch-Force-Sensing-Resistor-FSR-.aspx
* The "Type K Thermocouple":http://adafruit.com/products/270 used in version 1.0 of the test stand was purchased from "AdaFruit":http://adafruit.com
