Standing By...

"It's so much work not launching a rocket..."

Turns out that the hardware from DFRobot was faulty. Sir Nick managed to get the micro-controller to transmit and receive a GPS location with a micro-controller from Sparkfun. Hurrah for that, but unfortunately, that means that we're going to have to order another set of hardware again, pushing us back several days.

We haven't been able to do much since then. I mean, there's only so many times you can edit and revise a report without any data. No micro-controller = no rocket launch = no data.

We have completed mostly everything else, though. All the tech-fest stuff is done, and all the lesson plans are almost done. We cannot move forward without data/results from field tests, though.

Standing by for parts...
