== Notes and Details ==

First flight of the [[Badger1|Badger1]] flight computer breaking the UK altitude record (since beaten by our [[Nova 7|Nova 7]] flight and then Robert Harrison's Icarus II). Flight was successful and telemetry was maintained throughout. A problem with the onboard temperature sensor prevented any valid temperature data being logged.
