harness for RPi has been completed and handed off to autonomy for further testing
- details: copied from Jerry’s discord message:
  - the raspberry pie system is ready for ground test. There are 3 cables to the RPi Rev B PCB, the UART kill switch cable is plugged in but the other two cables were not plugged in. xt30 power cable is straightforward, just connect the female connector to the male connector on the pcb. For the telemetry cable, unplug cable in the pixhawk telem3 port rn and plug the one coming from rpi in Uart killswitch cable is connected to pixhawk io pwm port 8. I think I told you yesterday, but I didn't include any details so here you go

Tracking Antenna

Yaw and Pitch tracking are both working
Currently working when TA is manually placed to face north (Yaw 0 degrees is north)
Otherwise, there is a calibration issue, will be looked over today
Ready for flight test on Nov 23rdReally inconsistent, not ready for this weekends flight test. Will be working on it this Sunday.

Hardy Yu tried to push harder on this project and we have a member who is able to work on it recently
The goal is to finish the firmware entirely by the end of the week
If the firmware is not finished by the end, Hardy will take over and finish it

Payloads on track - waiting for filament
angled landing gear coming to a Peggy near you on Saturday
tracking antenna case to get final review and printed
- changes to be made
- Tracking Antenna Controller Board Mount

IR camera different settings tested on ground, IR beacon is still pretty bright (min exposure time + max ISO) OneDrive
Cluster estimation integrated and tested
MAVlink communication in development
IR camera integration is almost complete, just testing remains
Will push more for bright spot detection once we lock in camera settings, although we have preliminary algorithms ready (not integrated)

...

Thursday’s work
session, not enough time to properly test, team members needed help with their tasks
- Set to take pictures at different ExposureTime values, need to see which value makes the most sense to use
Will test a bit more on Friday, hopefully there is some sun to test in, otherwise will test in cloudy weather and see how it turns out.
