Team Member Updates

Anni

  • Began tuning on MPU6050

    • PID works, can’t get good data out of IMU

    • Angles just go to crazy values, making it very difficult to tune

Aadi, Manav, Neha

  • Working with Neha and Manav on switching Path manager to VTOL

  • PM Restructure

  • List of demands for sensor fusion

Aidan

  • BMX160 is looking good! output ~seems~ correct, but we don’t have a magnetometer calibration, so the readings from that are garbage.

    anni: can we try running off raw data for now?

  • Fixed the ppm bug that was hardfaulting safety when the receiver was connected

  • DSHOT looks to be working properly, waiting for the PR to be officially opened before I can accept the review 🤩

  • Learned that SF needs to run at 200Hz, so we need to get rtos threads in asap so that we can test the IMU’s more effectively

Chris

  • Called Yash on monday and discussed Safety f-rtos transfer.

  • Dhruv assigned Chris to arm/disarm

  • Working on getting DSHOT Pr IN

David

  • Trying to get drone spinning, trying to print out IMU Values.

  • Maybe BMX160 on autopilot soon?
