Avionics
A typical system consists of six distinct modular units that are contained within a single Aluminum enclosure. The modular construction of the avionics platform provides the greatest flexibility, as it allows for the addition of features in the future without the need for a complete redesign of the product. Rocket lab uses the latest in IMU and GPS technology combined with system protocols such as CAN-bus for ultra reliable and high accuracy avionics. A standard sounding rocket system offered by Rocket Lab, (SRA) is a high performance miniature flight computer for use on sounding rockets and high velocity vehicles. It has flight history on small sounding rockets including Rocket Lab's Ātea-1.
