PDM

Smile Khatri

• Nathan may have saved PDM (goat)

  • deleted old IP address on the license server so now there is only 1. If your PDM is not working, let us know.

  • Should be on ‘PDM-SelfHost’ in Zerotier. If you got PDM prior to Winter 2024 you may need a new zerotier ID.

Peggy Payload

Alison Thompson

• Both payloads looking good

• Waiting on filament to come to print final tanks

Peggy Landing gear

Alison Thompson

• Angled landing gear manufacturing almost done!

• Just need to do the CF tubes on Saturday and we can assemble

• We will fly with this new landing gear on Nov 30th!

• Tipping bars blocked by filament delivery as well, testing to see if we actually need them when landing gear is done

Peggy Frame

Alison Thompson

• Remade bottom panel today

• Will send to e3 for cutting

  • Shawn Henry Dragon Victor Sun are the panel edits in CAD ready?

• New clamping design for arm blocks looks good, need to print more when filament comes and cut aluminum - we will just use the bandsaw to cut the old pieces

Peggy 2 Jig

Evan Janakievski

• There were good adjustments to work with the new landing gear

• I left feedback on what was not good on the Pegasus 1 jig to try to fix for this one

• Should be ready for manufacturing soon

  • With the limitations on waterjet, do we still want to go with gussets?

Wings

Nathaniel Li

• Pushing aileron CAD

• GPS mount was redesigned by Evan Janakievski

Groundstation (IMACS)

Smile Khatri

• Sam Sayad Sacha Missaghian

• Any updates on the groundstation?

• Almost finalized design

• Ping Nathan into the design review

Tracking Antenna

Sohee Yoon

• Jack Doehler any updates on the controller board mount?

  • It’ll be great if we could print it this week!

  • Updated it with all the necessary adjustments here Tracking Antenna Controller Board Mount so should be ready for printing. – Jack

• Jievan Tapajna any updates on the GPS mount?

  • I did review it this morning so no worries if you haven’t gotten to it yet!

• Agapa Goombs I will def review the base plate this weekend because I’ve delayed that for too long

Fuselage

Sohee Yoon

• Currently I'm changing the dimensions of the panels, hoping to finalize this by this weekend or early next week

  • Working on making the height of the fuselage taller to avoid overlap with the frame and I’ve lengthened the front portion to accomodate for the motor mount changes

  • Because of the thickness of the boards (~4mm slightly below), the fuselage overlaps with the wings, so I’ll need to make cutouts of the wings on the side panels. Does anyone else have a better idea for this problem?

Eclipse plans

Image Added

• Need to grind as much manufacturing and assembly as possible before finals

• Plan to have the frame assembled by next week

• and get started on wings + empennage manufacturing

• We should have all the parts we need to make the plane

• To make a good VTOL we need to be able to make a good fixed wing
