ARCA performed a long range avionics tests regarding command-control and telemetry equipment. This equipment will be used for the Flight Command and Control Center and aerospace vehicles that are under development at ARCA. This test took place between Valcea and Olt Counties at a range of 98,7 km.

ARCA has recently established a new office building. It was constructed in 1890 and was renovated by ARCA. Soon a new museum will be established in and around the building. Here also activities for the ExoMars program will take place, especially radio and flight command and control equipment integration.



The European Space Agency has visited ARCA for two days in order to check the progress of ARCA regarding the preparations for the ExoMars High Altitude Drop Test Program.

ARCA successfully completed the first phase of the program, the Design Review, and is now near to complete the first Drop Test Vehicle (DTV) for the first flight test, alongside the ground support equipment. This flight test, that will take place over the Black Sea, with the support of the Navy, will be a rehearsal for the two main flights that will take place in the autumn of 2013.

The teams signed in gratitude for the hospitality of the host, Team Angelicvm.
In the first day the teams will be presented, technical and theoretical aspecs of the lunar flight will be discussed, alongside prizes categories, flight monitoring, etc.
