A word to the wise: don't design weapons and share them publicly on the Internet.

Very cool project. The combination of 3D printing and low-cost sensors has really changed what's possible for experimental rocketry.

Airbus has been in the defense industry for a long time.

And the deadliest weapons in war today are repurposed toys.

Just a few days ago, we got a legitimate from scratch open source design for a phased array radar [1].

And what this misses is with his other repo https://github.com/novatic14/Distributed-Camera-Node-Trackin...

This provides a distributed camera network to provide realtime updatable telemetry for target acquisition.

Only thing missing is he should have used LoRa as the backend comms. Meshtastic devices provide encryption and full comms with mesh for cheap.

Thankfully ive already downloaded everything. I suggest you all do the same, cause this repo is getting purged and the student Alisher Khojayev at Los Angeles Valley College is likely going to get black bagged.
