Overview
The Tender descenders are used by the team for achieving a single separation dual deploy architecture.
Student Modifications
The Tender Descender currently used by Rocket Team has a hole drilled and tapped for a 1/4-20 bolt to screw in where the E-match is normally located. Our 1/4-20 bolts have holes drilled in them with E-match glued in. This allows us to screw our E-matches and secure them with Teflon tape.
Testing Campaign
Team Members are in the process of conducting tests to ensure that we understand proper Tender Descender operation and to verify our student modifications.
