Progress this term
Both payloads on track
Tracking antenna done from mech perspective
Eclipse lagging a bit → PDM issues
aDesign review next week (delayed due to PDM issues and big flight test)
Eclipse progress is slower than we would like → more ambitious than we thought
“Final CAD review” probably next week
Plans going forward
Manufacturing starting after review → about two weeks out
Wing prototyping started this week
Houston / Dallas progress
Mech is maintaining them upon request
Maybe need to find someone else to pilot Dallas for atrium cleaning next term
Member retention / bootcamp progress?
Enough member for what we’re doing right now?
Plans going forward
Short term: as discussed in every comp / fixed wing sync
Eclipse is not on track for flying at the start of next term
Depends if design gets approved next week
Can push manufacturing to produce it by the start of this term
Plan is: one maiden with tuning, one test for autonomy
Want to get flight hours to determine flight characteristics → max speed, current draw at max speed
Action Items
Setup at least one subteam social before the end of the term.
Maybe after a work session, but just get your team together?
Can delegate scheduling out to a member or PM as well, doesn’t need to load leads.
Needs to be after work session
