That PCB design was unreal considering you were a highschooler at the time. All the other stuff too, it was like real engineering. And here I hoped to get into MIT with my arduino projects. You clearly deserved that place in CO25 more than me so good luck

Just stumbled across this and it’s one of the coolest things I’ve seen. I find this so interesting and if you happen to continue anything like this at MIT let me know because I’d love to help out!!
Thank you! I plan on posting several more interesting projects I want to continue throughout this semester and at MIT on this channel in the coming months, so stay tuned :))
@@mr.erikchun5863 kind of feels like none of what you said is incompatible or goes against with the other commenter's comment. Is it true that it helps a lot if your school has a robotics team and your parents can pay for your projects? Yes. Then... even if there are rich lazy people out there, does that mean that having money doesnt help you with your projects or what kind of logic were you following there? cause it clearly does not add up.
That’s amazing, that you have the knowledge to design a PCB and program the MCU while in high school. I’m EE major and learned all of this so i appreciate the complexity. You’re a genius 😅
As an electronics engineer this is amazing. Truly unreal how you learned all of this in high school. This project is equivalent to a b.tech/engineering project. Maybe you can make a video on how you prepared/learned all this stuff
Wow what are the odds I see that shirt again! I was on 973 in 2019, and I was the one who designed it. Crazy work on the rocket, especially just in high school. Can't imagine what you're doing nowadays
I was about to be like "meh, unimpressed" until he got the part about designing and fabricating his own PCBs. Then I was like "ohhh ok yea this guy belongs at MIT"
Dude, you are already an engineer, you don’t need a college degree to learn the things that u already knew, just show your work to any big tech companies, you will undoubtedly get hired. And I am looking forward to the upcoming future of yours. Great Work!
I think the reason they don't is because it is an ethics issue. When something goes wrong they don't want to be accused of negligence. Also just general reputation protection. Regardless of if they know they have the best man for the job their business affiliates only really see credentials.
He could definitely get hired but MIT is no joke. Great school - I’d want to go even if I already had multi-6-figure jobs lined up. But that’s just me personally!
@@connorkraft3315 Same. Gaining the best foundation for knowledge and wisdom is much more valuable and gratifying anyway, esp. in the long run. To know and understand the world around us. And reach whatever dreams you have. If money would be a goal, 7-figure or higher amounts are actually attainable for these people. These brains in these thirteen-figure sectors are most sought after ;).
You do realize that it's more than just a piece of paper, right? It's an ABET credential that's proof he's hirable as an engineer. I don't doubt that this kid is far more advanced than I and most others were in engineering school, but that proof can only be applicable once he's gone through the program. It's just setting a baseline, nothing more than that. He's definitely going to do some amazing shit in his time.
Wow! The top engineering school accepted a bunch of kids who are already educated to be engineers! I wonder how they continue to produce established engineers as graduates! It’s just such a mystery!
This came in my recommend. Very impressive. Just wondering how did you learn to code the flight system and design the pcb for the rocket?. And how can learn this aswell?
bro how fuck you got to learn pcb design and all shit, it so complex and itself is huge part of electrical engineering! Damn bro nothing but respect for you!
I did a lot of FIRST robotics as @Josh Young mentioned: FLL, FTC and FRC. I also did a bunch of home projects for a number of years before this one, which gave me the experience and tools I needed to complete this project.
Utterly wild that this ended up in my recommendations. If this is 3 years old, I can't even imagine what you're up to now. Crazy it all started with some Scratch, huh? -Sam M
Hey Aaron! First of all, congrats on the admission and my respect for this project. It is extremely impressive. Especially, considering in what time frame you were able to do it. I want to apply to MIT this year too, and I also want to submit a Maker Portfolio. I have a question related to the Portfolio. Did you submit this video and an additional PDF or only the video? And if you submitted a PDF too, how many pages of technical description did you write? Thanks in advance!
sounds like the Mark rober video with the rocket on the egg hope some suits don't show up at your door for essentially making a step behind a guided missile.
Most importantly, you need somewhere safe to launch - for a project as potentially dangerous as this, I drove out to a desert in Nevada to test it completely away from other people/property. Using the NAR guidelines for motor size vs launch area to find a safe space is a good starting point (www.nar.org/safety-information/model-rocket-safety-code/). Then, I’d say just experiment - maybe start with some ground tests using a simple TVC mount and an Arduino which just tried to keep the motor in place during the launch. Then, working your way up from there in both guidance computer and vehicle complexity you’ll eventually get to a full launch vehicle, much the same as Joe has done! Finally, finding a technical mentor to help you as well, like from a robotics team could be a huge help. Hope that helps!
@@difficult.to.underestimate It’s definitely doable but it’s easier if you have some prior experience with model rocketry so that when you’re testing your system, your rocket doesn’t decrease in performance due to build issues. Additionally, you need to have a decent understanding of motors and how they work (I.e, burn time and and impulse). The building part isn’t terribly difficult (programming will take up most of your time) but having a mentor to help you out can go a long way.
@@difficult.to.underestimate Sorry thought you meant you were completely new lol. By the way, I was wondering if you have any advice starting out with programming/arduino. I have experience with 3D printing and design but I’d like to get into Arduino in the near future.
i mean it's 2 years ago so i don't know if that matters anymore, but it seems like you were just trying to correct the "realtime data" directly, but computing is never realtime yet i believe because there's always a tiny space between the updates of values that won't show, therefore the errors will get bigger and bigger until it completely gets out of control. i think another decent try might be to compute some kind of prediction that helps adjusting and causing the errors not to expand further. but that's just a tip from an uneducated person that is just trying to experience the world for himself and learn for himself
Actually a very good guess! The errors can be handled via a PID controller. The 'I' (integral) part keeps track of the errors over time and adjusts the inputs to compensate, theoretically making the steady state (error after a long time) error to be 0.
Hey Aaron, Awesome video! im super impressed! You seem somewhat familiar, are you into rock climbing? sort of feel like ive seen you at a climbing gym in boston.
Honest question, I would love to do some of these things but I don’t have the funds. Do you have a certain school lab or work a job with a certain organization?
Superb work! You'll definitely go far - pun intended... and great choice to use quaternions! Greetings from a fellow alum - Course XVI '05, XVI and TPP '08. Any way I can be of support, please let me know.
Wish I was smart 18 n missed all high-school math cause I thought I was dumb n man do I regret it now it's hard figuring out equations especially for my tesla coi I'm building :*))🎉
I am a german architect, and in germany architects are considered engineers. So me being an "engineer" i did not understand the most part haha, except the work in solidworks and 3d printing
Hey would it be possible to create a EDF electric tvc rocket? solid motors are pretty expensive for multiple tests and It is a little out of my budget. I was thinking something similar to joe barnards Sprite Hopper. If it is are there any specific parts you recommend?
Really like your stuff man, I have a question that I hope you could kindly answer. For the two-minute limit on videoing of the creative portfolio, could I submit three videos each explains a different project and each is two minutes long? And could you write about a different project on the PDF doc from the content of your video?
No idea! When I did it, it was two minutes of video total (so only one video allowed) but it’s entirely possible that the requirements have changed. You should definitely take a look at the information on any portals/email MIT directly if you can’t find what your looking for.
@@aaron-becker Thank you for your response! Can I get your general opinion on this? The guidelines are kinda vague it said I'm able to "submit video totalling no more than 120 seconds and up to one PDF of technical documentation." It didn't specifically say if the PDF should be about the same project as the video. So I'm talking about one of my programming projects in the video, and for the PDF I'm gonna write about two physics projects that I had done. Do you think they will accept it?
Hey Aaron, congrats on your acceptance to MIT. I have a doubt if I could apply to MIT from 10th grade and get selected for the 2026 batch or i could only apply when i complete my highschool?
@Luca Mantova Sponsoring someone else would be really awesome :) The total cost is a bit hard to pin down, but I would estimate around $1250 to build three full rockets (and buy motors), two guidance computers and two ground computers for redundancy, not including launch costs or travel costs. Since I only had one chance to launch the vehicle I wanted to give it a maximal possible shot of some sort of launch. This also included the use of borrowed/shared resources, so if you’re starting from scratch it may be a bit more. Contact me at the email listed on my portfolio website, ambecker.com (don’t want to list email in plaintext on youtube), if you want me to send you my full bill of materials.
I am a senior in highschool and I am close to launching a rocket of similar design in the coming weeks. The complexity of this project is completely unmatched by any project I’ve done in the past. I used a Kalman filter to filter the accelerometer and gyroscope data instead of a complimentary and used a simple pid control loop. As I am stronger in coding than electronic circuits o decided to make a simulation in python of what to expect when it launches to tune the PID. I however did not make my own flight computer i instead stayed within the Arduino architecture. Anyway my question is how did you tune your control loop?
Hello, I'm currently in grade 11. I've seen quite a few maker portfolios and am confused when do you guys submit them. I've seen portfolios for class of 2028 being submitted in 2024. How's that possible. They must be submitting it in their 8th grade or so right? When do we actually need to submit them. Any deadline?
Wait if a young person could do this? What is the benefit of going to MIT? It seems to me that a young person should nurture this as clearly they are capable so much more when their time is focused on being themselves rather than drowning their time in academic losing valuable time for what he is already doing.
class of 2025 means what class he will be in at MIT. Moreover, it means the graduation year. So he is in the class of 2025 because he is graduating in 2025
