Jared Gelia developed and maintained the Payload-2024-2025 repository for the NCSU High-Powered Rocketry Club, focusing on robust telemetry, hardware integration, and data processing for flight systems. He implemented end-to-end transmitter and receiver workflows using Python and C++, integrating GPIO and serial communication for real-time telemetry. Jared modernized project tooling with pyproject.toml and Ruff linting, improving maintainability and onboarding. He introduced mock hardware interfaces to enable hardware-free testing, enhanced data compatibility, and fixed critical bugs in velocity and burn detection. His work emphasized code quality, reliability, and clear state machine logic, resulting in a maintainable, testable foundation for future development.

April 2025: NCSU Payload project improvements focusing on reliability, maintainability, and flight data accuracy. Delivered two critical bug fixes improving burn and velocity measurements, and completed a codebase cleanup that clarifies landing parameters and reduces technical debt, enabling safer and more predictable future flights.

January 2025 monthly summary for NCSU-High-Powered-Rocketry-Club/Payload-2024-2025: Implemented end-to-end transmitter/receiver hardware integration with non-blocking transmission control, including GPIO/Direwolf, PTT signaling, and robust init/teardown. Added real transmission and receiver commands, and context packets, with improved data logging for flight telemetry. Introduced a mock receiver to enable hardware-free testing of the payload/transmitter workflow, accelerating development and CI feedback. Completed code quality enhancements (linting, formatting, import cleanup) and updated remote override logic to improve maintainability. Prepared Raspberry Pi–specific changes to ensure reliable testing and deployment in field environments. Impact: more reliable telemetry, faster development cycles, and a stronger, testable foundation for future capabilities.
