Success Criteria

Requirements

Outcome

CV camera footage logging

  • CV camera could successfully log footage

  • Right video color

  • know why we failed to log video last time

  • We will take landing pad

  • Need to investigate into why the camera fail to log video last time

  • CV Camera successfully logged footage

  • Video colour NOT correct- more purple than before

  • 1st test flight SD card did not log footage. Checked Jetson after 1st test flight found that run.sh execution on startup was disabled (even though this was specifically enabled before test flight #1)

  • Rebooted the Jetson before 2nd test flight SD did log footage, meaning run.sh was manually ran on Jetson’s command line before test flight #2 startedsuccessfully executed on startup.

QR code mission planner integration

  • Software flashed into the ground station

  • We plan to run this in simulation with RealFlight first.

Autotune on pitch/roll

ZP3.5 first milestone check

  • FLY

  • Ground test need to be done before Sunday

  • Aircraft assembled with firmware updated

  • FC paired with a Radio controller (TX12)

Flight Test Post Mortem

Required equipment to

  1. WARG Laptop (w/ CAMLINK and OBS) or preferably a portable monitor

  2. HDMI cable, USB Splitter, Mouse and Keyboard

Before 1st Test Flight:

  • Plugged in HDMI into Jetson from Laptop & used OBS to view jetson screen

    • This is harder to use than if a monitor was connected directly, since OBS had input delay & poor cropping / solution

  • Plugged in Mouse & Keyboard into Jetson to get to command line

  • Checked to make sure that run.sh was enabled

  • Checked to see that SD Card was being logged onto

  • Rebooted Jetson

1st Test Flight:

  • SD card did not store any footage

Between 1st and 2nd Test Flight:

  • Checking Jetson after 1st test flight found that run.sh execution on startup was disabled (even though this was specifically enabled before test flight #1

  • Re-enabled run.sh to run on startup

  • Rebooted Jetson

  • Checked the Jetson’s file system to see that SD started logging footage again, meaning run.sh successfully executed on startup after this most recent reboot

  • Left Jetson as is for the 2nd Test Flight

2nd Test Flight:

  • CV Camera successfully logged footage to SD card

  • Video more purple than previous flight test, which led to poor landing pad detection model performance

Tip
  • Video Logged Successfully

Note
  • Need to re-tune the CV camera to remove the purple hue

Warning
  • , Investigate why SD card was not storing any footage- if issue came from run.sh not running on startup or some other source
