  • Check out Conops for AEAC! Get involved in comp syncs for discussion https://www.aerialevolution.ca/annual-student-competition/

    • We decided to not do SUAS since it costs time, manpower, money, late conops.

    • Summary

      • Happening May 9-11 in Medicine Hat, Alberta

      • Aiming to do a full simulation Nov 8

      • Phase one January 15

      • Phase 1 Proposal, 2 is competition

        • Task 1

blockers

plan going forward

Tracking antenna

assembled SMT components on 2 boards

  1. vin-gnd 200 ohm resistance issue

  2. fix shorted pins on the other pcb

continue debugging and document process

ESC CAN

Assembled SMT components on all 5 boards

Resoldered some components that did not reflow well/had some minor issues (mainly the STM32)

EFS needs to do testing to confirm full validation of the board

BM06 Connectors not in yet, need these to program the boards

Validate EE side of things - testing for shorts, continuity, etc
