Hi!
based on discussion last Friday about Near Space balloon project, I created a tilt towards purchasing a Eagle Flight kit from High Altitude Science, and also rent a helium tank. Kit costs 900 CAD and helium tank 200CAD, hence the fundseeking sum of 1100 CAD.

If you want to see VHS reach new heights, considering skipping a coffee today and contribute towards next level hackspace.
Purchasing the kit will allow new flights to be completed with considerable less money, and allow members to test and verify their own high altitude projects more easily.
See more information about the project on on this talk thread.
Thank you,
Pauli
