GREAT NEWS!!!! Thanks to our team’s engineer the payload outer layer construction is completed!!!!

This is going to host the electronics that is on going for the building and antenna parts as you can see the cupper rod that is protruding on the bottom. The box is made out off the acrylics as well as the aluminum for the frame of the box to increase the strength.

The antenna holder shown in the figure in the bottom of the box that holds the cupper rods are made out of the PLA, using the 3D printer.

The box will be mounted on the payload as shown in the below to attach to the balloon. As of today the connection hinge and the internal electronic component is currently undertaking the development.
