The University of Florida Hybrid Rocket Team has made a major modification to their project by adopting basalt fiber and epoxy solely for the body tube construction. This decision replaces the original plan of using four different composite materials, streamlining the process and ensuring a consistent approach. The change means that strain measurements will now focus exclusively on the basalt body tube, providing valuable insights into its performance. By embracing this innovative material shift, the team aims to enhance the rocket's structural integrity and overall efficiency.
