Preliminary Architecture design

...

2.0. Vehicle should stay in constant communication [of telemetry] w/ ground through ConOPS stages 2-10.

3.0 Stable throughout flightsflight

3.1 > 100 >100 ft/s Off the rail velocity

3.2 1.5 to 6 caliber - depends on wind condition constraint - value Should be double checked

4.0 Vehicle should be structurally sound throughout the flight

4.1 [Specific Load conditions]

5.0 Servicability throughout various stages

6.0 Vehicle should be recovered - With constraints from comp rules

7.0 Desert environmental requirements & robustness

8.0 Assembly process?

ConOPS Stages

These are the distinct states of rocket

1.0 Assembly - 2.0 Ground functions - 3.0 Launch - 4.0 Powered Flight - 5.0 Coast - 6.0 Apogee Events - 7.0 High velocity Descent - 8.0 Low altitude Events - 9.0 Low velocity Descent - 10.0 Landing - 11.0 Recovery & Disassembly

Off nominal

Each stage can be broken down further into nominal (NX.X.X) and Off-nominal (EX.X.X) Steps. This is described in system-level functional-flow block diagrams for each stage
