This is a condensed video of our high altitude weather balloon flight that took place in Canandaigua, NY just outside of the Rochester New York area. The flight traveled to an altitude of 105,798 FT. (32,247m) over the Finger Lakes region of New York and landed southwest of Syracuse, NY. This is a condensed video showing the entire 2 hour flight in just under 4 minutes. Surface winds were quite high for launch, so we performed a running launch to ensure the atmospheric balloon was directly above the payload when we released it so it wouldn't swing and bounce off the ground. Pauses in the telemetry overlay are due to the data collector pausing while it sends a radio transmission to report its position back to us on the ground. • View full flight details at: http://overlookhorizon.com/flight-11 • To learn more about our Arduino based flight computer, APRS transmitter, RTTY radio transmitter, ham radio balloon tracking methods or any of our other onboard technology and data sensors; visit http://overlookhorizon.com • • OUR FLIGHT SYSTEMS EQUIPMENT: • Styrofoam Cooler: http://amzn.to/2pLYNkz • Arduino MEGA: http://amzn.to/2pMh3KC • GoPro Hero 4: http://amzn.to/2qCgbou • Lightdow LD4000 Action Camera: http://amzn.to/2qFlsNu • Rocketman Parachute: http://amzn.to/2pecXrx • Adafruit PowerBoost: http://amzn.to/2q4v2fL • uBlox Neo 6M GPS: http://amzn.to/2pMfUm1 • DS18b20 Temperature Sensor: http://amzn.to/2qK4goZ • Data Logging Shield: http://amzn.to/2pengvC • BMP180 Pressure Sensor: http://amzn.to/2pLcSMW • Piezo Speaker Alarm: http://amzn.to/2q4AEXb • Orbtronics 18650 Lithium Ion Batteries: http://amzn.to/2pLD4XW • Radar Reflector: http://amzn.to/2fmY7il • GoPro HERO: https://amzn.to/2I0eJKf • Arduino Pro Mini: https://amzn.to/2wo61Qw • • Please Donate! • Overlook Horizon Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization in the United States.
