The architecture of a drone can be found in the [Competition Design Outline]. <# iterations> iterations of the drone will be created, at <#milestones>. <# final copies> of the drone will be created in “competition spec”. Our system will meet the requirements in [Competition Requirements].

The Jetson will handle geolocation of landing pads, as well as the final landing-approach sequence. ZP will request information from the jetson Jetson when ZP is ready to begin the landing sequence, and Jetson will return data on which direction to fly in. Inertial flight < 1s closed loop should be possible with centimeter accuracy. Thus, the jetson handles the search pattern for the landing pad, as well as the process of centering the drone over the landing pad. Once landing has begun, ZP will no longer request data from the jetson.

In this state, all systems should be in low power mode in order to prevent overheating. To arm the drone…the following process should be followed:
arm Arm the hardware. During this step, the hardware will ensure that everything is proper and the drone is fit for takeoff
Arm the controller. During this step, the pilot & flight crew should verify that they are ready for takeoff & flight.
Arm the software. During this step, the software should be checking to make sure that necessary links are established and ready to kick into effect.
