| Competition Frame updates | Megan Spee Conall Kingshott | Cabin - skin, main cylinder build Conall Kingshott Tube frame of cabin mostly built - need to replace two 3D printed joints Skin is going to attach to foam ribs using velcro (Mostly done) Will need some holes made for camera and mounting to frame.
Stiffener for Battery Compartment - Hrishik Patel Landing gear - Alison Thompson Mostly assembled, just got new prints done Will be done once Cornflakes is done Going to look into a stabilizer to run horizontally between both sides to stop them from bowing out on impact
Nose/tail - Andrew Wright Avionics bay - ?? Conall Kingshott Bay door - Vishal Jayakumar it’s printed in lightweight PLA, just hasnt been fixed to door. Hrishik Patel was doing cabin assem, can possibly help with attaching door We need a piece of carbon fiber for this (maybe Andrew Wright )
CV camera mount - Arjun Mandair ** Reminders for Comp Frame for General Visibility ** We will need to implement: optical flow sensor on bottom 360-degree-visibility LED lights. must be done in junction with EE forward and downward camera - is this accounted for? airspeed sensors need to go on icarus killswitchantenna mounting in general arm/disarm switch on the tail - EE junction
