Abstract:

This paper discusses the development and testing of the new-generation recovery system in high-powered rockets. It starts from the overall description of the rocket system, the requirements of the Miniature Autonomous Rocket Recovery System MARRS and is followed by a description of a flight tested MARS. Next, simulation and results from the flight tests are given. This paper ends with conclusions and recommendations for follow-on testing.
