Mini Altitrak (EST2226)

Take learning to new heights with the Mini Altitrak, a low-cost technology solution for tracking model rocket altitude. This small and easy-to-transport altitude tracking device empowers students to track flight data, analyze it, and create graphs. Available in a convenient three-pack, this product offers an affordable way to provide engaging learning opportunities in the classroom.

For educators looking to enliven their lessons while maintaining educational value, the Mini Altitrak is an ideal addition to rocketry activities. It facilitates not just data collection and analysis but also helps students comprehend the dynamics of rocket flight. By utilizing this tool, students gain insights into the engineering process and the real-world applications of their learning.

The Mini Altitrak employs a gravity protractor to measure the angle from the observer's position to the apogee of the rocket's flight. By knowing the distance from the launchpad to the observer's location, students can utilize basic geometry to calculate the height of their rocket's flight. This hands-on experience encourages them to think critically and develop engineering solutions to optimize their rockets' altitude.
