We are almost ready for the double test tomorrow, Dec 30, where we will be testing engines SAPPHIRE-1 and BIG-LES. More details about this open engine test can be seen here in a previous blog post.
The team behind active guidance for the SAPPHIRE-1 rocket, led by Flemming Nyboe, as well as Peter Madsen and the engine crew have been working hard to be ready with controllable jet vane rudders.
