About
The Skylark Nano is a suborbital launch vehicle that has garnered attention from universities and students for its potential as a research platform to collect data on ambient conditions. Its pre-launch and launch operations are designed for simplicity. The vehicle uses HTPB solid propellant and is powered by a motor manufactured by Cesaroni Inc. It has a lift-off mass of 13.325 kg and can carry a payload of up to 1 kg. The maximum thrust is 1825 N, with a sustained thrust of 1526 N. The motor has an ISP of 181 seconds and a total motor impulse of 5 seconds. Skyrora also offers a mobile telemetry kit for launch sites that are unavailable, which includes a telemetry ground station, antenna and mount, and a control computer to communicate with onboard systems. This kit tests key components for future launch vehicles.
