Debrief
Pre Flight
Left late for WRESTRC
Have more Autonomy members involved in flight tests
Flight Card 1
Recap
Good
Bad
Flight Card 2
Recap
Flight 1
Camera settings: ISO 16, ExposureTime 36
Images were black, too dark
Camera cable ribbon cable
Flight 2
Camera settings: ISO 16, ExposureTime 250
IR beacon was visible, slightly dark, and slightly out of focus
Room for improvement
Camera ribbon cable came unplugged as well as RFD
Flight 3
Camera settings: ISO 32, ExposureTime 200
Errors with Houston caused aborting flight
Motor shaft issues → need to order new motors
Vibe issues → shock mounts for Pixhawk
Need to test these settings as no images were taken → double check
Good
Got some data for camera
Bad
Ideal settings were not found
Issues with Houston arose and will not be flown until fixed
Flight Card 3 → did not complete see Flight Card 2
Recap
Good
Bad
Flight Card 4 → did not complete, started to rain
Recap
Good

Post:
Do Houston flights in SDC to discover issues and flush out problems prior to doing outdoor tests
Do more ground tests for cluster estimation
Battery connector needs to be added to IR beacon and remove light sensor → delegate to EE Maxwell Lou
Autonomy needs to make minimum viable product
Make assumptions (ie one beacon visible at a time)
Tight timeline
