L1 Certification Rocket

Motivated to expand my experience in high-power rocketry and earn my L1 certification, I designed and built a rocket that meets the rules to achieve L1. The vehicle is being developed to fly with an H219T-14A motor from AeroTech.


The structure and flight systems are designed to ensure stable flight and reliable recovery, allowing the vehicle to be reused for future launches, following the rules to receive Level certification. This project focuses on improving my skills and knowledge in structural and recovery system design and reliability.


The rocket was launched in April 11, 2026 at Rocketry Organization of California. It achieved apogee of approximately 1,000 m and recovered successfully, as a result, I received my L1 certification.
