Current Projects
Eclipse is our rocket designed for the 2026 EuRoC competition, building on the innovations and experiences of our previous competition rockets. Following our Aurora rocket, this is our second rocket to be equipped with a solid-propellant rocket motor - using a more powerful mixture. The internal frame uses forged carbon parts alongside aluminum, and the upgraded airbrake system allows for more precise control.
Our latest research and development project is Project STYX, Hungary's first liquid-propellant rocket engine developed in-house. The aim of the project is to develop a high-performance engine using dinitrogen oxide as oxidizer and ethanol as fuel, which will serve as a propulsion system for our future high-performance rockets.
Sparrow is being developed as our next-generation launch vehicle for the CanSat Hungary competition series. From 2027 onward, it will replace the Athena rockets, introducing a new electronics architecture, an upgraded parachute deployment system, and a newly developed propulsion setup for higher reliability and operational flexibility.
Project Aeolia is a quadcopter-based model satellite concept, and we are entering the TEKNOFEST competition with it. The project is built around three subsystems - SIGMA, COM&CAM and Structure - and aims to complete the first two bonus missions while validating key design decisions through early prototypes and tests.
Past Projects
Aurora is by far our most complex and ambitious project to date. For the first time in the team's history, we have integrated our own solid rocket motor into our own rocket. Aurora features numerous innovations and improvements; a brand new distributed avionics system, a new internal frame structure, and an actively controlled airbrake system. The rocket will carry a 3U CubeSat and a CanSat to an altitude of 3000 meters at the 2025 European Rocketry Challenge.

Project Prometheus
The team's main project is to develop a rocket capable of reaching 9,000 metres with a payload of 3 kg. The rocket will be used to compete in the European Rocketry Challenge.

Project Kratos
In this research project, the team is developing a low-cost, solid-propellant rocket motor that could be produced in-house. The aim of the project is to develop a motor capable of powering our future higher-performance rockets with high reliability.

Project Athena
In cooperation with the Hungarian Astronautical Society, we organised the CanSat Hungary competitions, a competition accredited by the European Space Agency (ESA). In the framework of this collaboration, our team provided the launch vehicles for the competition.
