F24 Progress

Overview:
- Made a bunch of boards (20 ish boards ordered!)
- Massive bringup term
- Peggy is wired
- Lots of CAN boards
- Onboarded two new leads
- Changed PM system
- Made meetings longer and better
- New bringup term
- Lots of new members
- Lots of great progress
Tracking antenna
- Before last term only had first design
- Brought up first design and found issues
- Worked on a new design
- Working on bringing up new revision
- Might not be used for comp → still worth working on for R&D
LED board
- Ordered rev 3 (non motor mount)
- Ordered and brought up rev 4 (with motor mount)
- Ordered rev 5 (high prio at end of F24)
- These are targeting realism points at comp
- How much firmware support do we really need here?
- EE and firmware kinda decoupled on this project
- Keeping this around as a longer term program would be nice
- Should make these airframe specific (integration is important)
Eclipse
- 6s servo module ordered → can be brought up
- 6s power module → has this been validated
- need to do harnessing
- get 6s servo module functioning this term
Peggy 2
- Not that much work here
How are we prioritizing things?
- Comp stuff should always come first
- Tentative rank: comp > eclipse > tracking antenna ?
Work session goals:
- Bringup
- Harness for eclipse
Want members to get a better system level understanding
- How do we go about doing this?

W25 Goals

Peggy 2
- Water controller → rev 2 prob doesn't need to change for payload changes
- Water controller would be nice to get going
Eclipse
- Eclipse project manager might be nice
- PM can do syncs with people working on eclipse
- End of Feb for mech fully complete
Change how PMs work:
- Eclipse PM (bring up, validation, and harnessing) → able to assign boards to people
- Peggy 2 PM → assign tasks like water controller, LED board
- Not giving people the answers → giving them questions to figure out
- Want to make it seem like people came to an idea themselves
- If still waiting on mech, get more people involved with the ideation process
- Timelines are important to ensure that things happen

Need to be a bit more in tune with EFS
- EFS gets hit with “can you write firmware” all of a sudden
- Need to work on giving them advanced notice
- 6s servo module for example
- Get them more involved in the boards that we make
Mech
- What is the board mount for eclipse?
- Sketch is WIP in arch doc
- 30 mm grid → dedicated mount for pix
- Taping servo board to servo?
- ESC case in the works
- Push for more details in meeting → first eclipse sync

Ryan last in person term W25
- Play it by ear after that
Leadership interest form
- 2 responses saying they’d like to become leads in the future
- Maybe work on bringing someone up at the end of this term?
- 3 leads is possible but not ideal
