Field notes
The described stack separates communications, flight computing, and power across three boards, with a single 40-pin bus joining them. The page says the flight computer reads sensors and logs to microSD, and describes a pocket USB LoRa receiver for ground telemetry. Its balloon-flight narrative includes GNSS tracking during descent; the extract does not verify that the displayed dashboard readings are live.
