Gathering weather telemetry with a Nano 33 BLE Sense payload

Arduino Team — September 23rd, 2025 Most model rockets don’t do anything practical — they just go up really fast and then come back down more slowly to land in a field somewhere. Those launches can still be a lot of fun to watch, but they aren’t exactly useful. However, the sky has plenty of data of worth monitoring and the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense Rev2 is perfect for collecting it. Vlud used that...
