Delta Flight Frame: Our frames are designed to be as light and strong as carbon fiber at a fraction of the cost. It forms the rugged backbone to which all the flight hardware is attached. Its unique design makes it a very stable platform for getting great footage from the edge of space.
3D Printed Camera Platform: This platform securely fastens the camera of your choice to the Delta Flight Frame using a ¼”-20 screw to get an incredible view of your payload in space!
Kaymont Weather Balloon: These high-quality weather balloons ensure you reach record-breaking altitudes. You have the option of selecting any size weather balloon we carry when purchasing our kit. The 600 g Weather Balloons and larger are for those who want to ensure they break 100,000 ft.
3ft Rocketman Parachute: Our Rocketman Parachutes are explicitly designed for the edge of space flights and manufactured in-house. These chutes are exceptionally reliable and have a loop at the top for the shock cord to connect to the base of the balloon. They are only 4-lines so do not tangle or twist on accent. On decent they’re very stable and will not oscillate or spin like all other balloon chutes.
4ft Long Three-Point Recovery Harness: Ensures the payload will remain stable during flight and will prevent your payload from rocking back and forth. This will help creating smooth video as the balloon turns, the platform will remain still.
2- 12 Feet Long Spectra Shock Cords: The 1st cord attaches between the balloon and parachute top loop. When the balloon bursts keeping 12ft distance is needed so the balloon does not interfere with the parachute. The second spectra cord attaches between the parachute bridal to your payload. This arrangement ensures everything is separated and the payload does not interfere with the air getting into the parachute.
Weather Balloon Inflator: Our Weather Balloon Inflator allows you to safely inflate your weather balloon very easily, the inflator has a regulator that reduces the helium tank pressure from 3,000 psi to 80 psi, this ensures that you won’t blow your balloon up. In addition, they have a filter that prevents any impurities/dust going into your balloon. The 5ft long air hose is kink resistant and is rated for temperatures from -40 to 140 degrees F!
Weather Balloon Filling Anchor: Allows convenient filling of your weather balloon, and a firm Spiral Ground Anchor to secure your balloon too while filling your weather balloon with helium. The included rope slides directly over the inflator neck.
3D Printed Tracker Platform: Securely fastens a tracker, such as the Spot GPS Gen 3 / 4 or Spot Trace onto the platform using zip ties.
Payload Platform: A Hard Maple Wood Platform that is ⅛”x3”x24” used to attach any payload for the camera to look at or to mount to an excess battery back.
