The deadzone for takeoff + landing throttle on Pegasus is also significantly larger (read: harsher landing + takeoff) compared to Vanny or Icarus.

Pegasus typically hovers around ~ 2800 rpm

FlowCAL + GPS/non-gps transition

...

  • Houston took multiple attempts to navigate around the obstacle.

  • Possible to see proximity sensors pinging off the obstacle and reporting closer values as houston navigates around?

...

  • Final battery dropped to around ~ <8v during the RTL sequence, .

  • The drone did enter RTL and then LAND, at 9.51 and 7.44V respectively……

    • Likely due to failsafe impedance/2seconds of being below critical values?

    • battery dropped from 10v to < 8v within ~ 2 seconds - too fast to react to.

Next-Steps

  • Update & clarify transmitter mappings, common channels, etc. for all drones.

    • arm/disarm sequences, mode channels, aux functions, telemetry logging, etc.

  • Test gemini, tracking-antenna

  • Remember to note down takeoff & landing times of all drones (at least total FT)

  • Remember to have videos of drones during FT’s.

  • Evaluate Pegasus tune.

  • Evaluate operation under GPS failures.

  • Come up with plan to optimize obstacle detection
