Instrumentation

Start a program

We design the sensors, wire harnesses, and data networks that capture what happens in flight. Scoped to what your program needs to validate performance and support certification.

Engineering scope

Every flight test program needs to know what actually happened in the air. HighQ designs the instrumentation systems that capture it: sensor selection, wire harness definition, vehicle data transport, and network architecture, built to collect the flight and system data clients need to validate performance and support certification. Our work spans conceptual design through hardware in hand, including custom-fabricated sensor elements like trailing cone assemblies validated through dedicated development testing.

Instrumentation scoped under $100,000 available as a lower-commitment bridge engagement

Sensor selection and instrumentation planning matched to certification and performance validation needs

Wire harness definition and design, including subcomponent testing as a standalone bridge scope

Vehicle data transport and network architecture for onboard-to-ground data flow

Control room design and build to support live test monitoring

Custom instrumentation hardware development and validation testing, such as trailing cone sensor assemblies

Telemetry Systems

We design, integrate, and test the systems that get live data from vehicle to ground reliably, including range checkout and flight test support.
