Primary Objective Requirements

drogue chute
- passive deployment
one downward facing camera
local (non-streamed) camera upward/sideward (maybe)
- no reason to not put as many we can fit/power
- vertical would be cool (see the parachute)
  - less overlapping information that downward and upward
name idea: COTS in 4K
Tracking: BRB
we need to power the cameras
- whole lotta 2S LiPos
- 2x Flight computers
- 2x Cameras (and transmitter)
we need a video transmitter
- 5.8 GHz 1W
how do we get signal to the ground
- directional antenna somewhere
- cool modulation - spreading sequence, something else
