I guess I should have clicked on the "ABOUT" tab.....

How is BPS.space funded?
For a long time, BPS.space was self-funded. I used to be a wedding videographer on the weekends and I spent any extra money on rockets during the week. BPS.space is now a proper company and full time job for me (Joe). It is currently funded through flight computer sales, the BPS.space Patreon page, ad revenue on YouTube, and sponsorships.

He's self taught....

Do you have an engineering degree? If not, how did you learn rocketry?
I have a degree in Audio Engineering from the Berklee College of Music if that counts! Otherwise, I picked up a few textbooks, found a few good YouTube tutorials for coding and mechanical design, and got to work experimenting!
