Every day, we strive to produce projects that our members cannot find anywhere else in Florida. Past projects have included a model air-methanol pintle injector engine, a hotfire-capable concrete test stand and an Arduino remote sensing and control system. Currently, we are working to hotfire our next generation 500lb thrust Sparrow engine to place ...
