Arg. At our recent launch our fancy ground station kept wanting to shut down, with what behaved like a power issue, so I assumed I was getting too much voltage drop when firing the igniters or something. With the same setup, firing the same types of igniters, and batteries not charged or anything since then, I can’t reproduce the issue on the workbench.
Angry rocket am I.
To add insult to injury, I’ve left it running on battery power all night, so approaching 10 hours, and haven’t had nary a power blip😤
I’m now suspecting that maybe a wire somewhere was just loose, which has me thinking that maybe it’s time to take the hodgepodge of parts that are wired together in there, and just make a couple custom PCBs, to reduce the rats nest of point to point wiring.
