Beschreibung

It’s funny because almost NO ONE knows this... but... The CG or Center of Gravity Controller is actually where ALL the magic happens for Kickit!🌟 I’m not an engineer or a physicist👨‍🔧, but I certainly learned a LOT about *both* when I was creating the Kickit with former MIT Engineer, NASA, Spaceforce and USAF Milstar Chief of Engineering Krissa Watry Krissa patented “Deployable decelerator based microsatellite recovery” for Spaceflight... 🚀👀 ... If you know how to decelerate a satellite to come back into the 🌎atmosphere... you could probably help decelerate a kickit!🤓 So THIS piece, the CG Controller is the brain 🧠 behind it all. Without precise engineering and countless hours of testing to make this piece, the Kickit wouldn’t flip over as perfectly as it does... and the flip🔃is the key!🔑 I guess what I’m really saying is, the flashy Red🔴Feathers and Elastic💢Rubber Kick-Pad get all the hype... Our amazing Center of Gravity (CG) Controller needs some love y’all!❤️🤓 If you like this episode, I hope you'll share it in support for all the details that make something great and get taken for granted. They need love too! See you on the next one. -E
