Launch Vehicle 3.1 is Portland State Aerospace Society’s current version of a long history of student-built rockets. Until recently, LV3.1 has been out of commission due to missing a critical system, the Electromechanical Recovery System (ERS), compared to the prior pyrotechnic system. The ERS’ job is to deploy the trio of parachutes that allow the rocket to land safely while controlling the descent. Multiple systems were designed until a general consensus was met on our final design. That design was further developed using the computer-aided design software, OnShape. A prototype was printed using a combination of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Stereolithography (SLA), and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS). A method of reading the state of the system, locked or unlocked, needed to be developed, as well as a way of passing power through each ERS. The ERS module is sandwiched between isogrid modules. These isogrid modules reduce weight while retaining strength due to the machined external module pattern developed by NASA. This new system allowed us to safely and efficiently test the deployment, while reducing airframe weight and maintaining strength. The design process grew into a collaborative effort between a variety of disciplines. Printed circuit boards were designed and sent out to be manufactured. Due to the success of our tests, we were confident in having parts machined in preparation for a launch-ready ERS.
