URAZ Model Satellite Set

Team URAZ is the team that will compete in the TÜRKSAT Model Satellite Design Competition. It is a team of 6 university students from Kütahya Dumlupınar University in Turkey. In this competition, students are responsible for building a 300 mm high-113 mm wide satellite that can transmit data such as air pressure, temperature, position, altitude, battery voltage to the ground station while performing a secondary mission of their choice. These satellites are launched by model rockets. Due to TÜRKSAT's size constraints, we chose to build a custom PCB with a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller, all necessary sensors communicating via I2C, MOSFETs to turn devices on and off, and JST connectors for external modules (motors, radio, etc.).
