    • Going to implement precision landing for final descent

  • EE

    • Pegasus 2 wiring session tomorrow, wiring as much as possible

      • Start from the pix and work out. Define specifics for wiring harnesses and manufacture them. This involves coming up with a reasonably specific placement scheme to determine wire lengths. I have a vague idea but more needs to be defined here. Shorten and attach connectors to the motor phase wires and battery wires. Also create low current harnesses. The goal here is to develop a solid idea of what the harnessing will physically look like and execute it as much as possible. As far as I’m aware all required components are in the bay. Motor phase and battery harnesses need to be located but should be present.

  • EFS

    • CAN is going well
