Anton Chetvertkov

Future electronics & aerospace engineer

I'm a student set on a career in electronics and aerospace engineering. I learn by building - designing, flying and iterating on rockets, aircraft, flight computers, ground stations and the software that ties them together. This page collects what I've made so far.

Completed projects

Ion thruster A working prototype of an ion engine for satellite propulsion in low Earth orbit.
Rocket series A run of rockets designed, built and launched, with a 90% success rate.
Aircraft programme Several planes and gliders, designed and flown.
Molniya programme A family of flight computers for the control and navigation of aircraft and rockets.
Rowing data logger Built for my Design Engineering coursework.

Projects in progress

Molniya-1.0R The first production version of the Molniya flight computer, built for rocketry data logging and live telemetry, with active-control capability.
Molniya-Pobeda programme The Molniya flight computer paired with Pobeda, my flagship vehicle - a carrier rocket targeting a flight to 500 metres.
IA-2 An antenna for receiving imagery from the METEOR-M series of weather satellites.
CosmoRover An autonomous food-delivery robot, currently in conceptual design.
Cosmos1562 The site this portfolio lives on - a live satellite-tracking web app with pass prediction, notifications and 3D rendering.

And this isn't everything - the list keeps growing.
