The '''Balloons Gen 1 Avionics Platform''' is the first core avionics suite developed by HABEES. Named ''Oscar'', this avionics suite flew on a failed technology demonstration in SSI-39, followed by a successful demonstration in SSI-40. As the first core avionics suite, it set the expectations for features to be included in subsequent revisions.
The full list of features found on Oscar:
* Teensy 3.2 Main MCU
* Five total pressure/temperature sensors, including two BMP280's, two MS5803's, and one MPL3115A2
* Micro SD card data logging
* Real Time Clock with backup battery
* Thermocouple for external temperature sensing
* uBlox NEO-6M GPS
* 6 custom-use MOSFET's
* Current sensing on two MOSFET's
* Indicator LED's for flight critical states
* Battery Protection (OV/UV/OC)
* 5V Battery Boost
* RockBlock Satellite Communications
* Pinouts for I2C, SPI, Power
