• # Didn’t crash! it looks great! (this is from last week but still true!)

  • fuselage lid - remake + and find a better way to secure this. may incorporate velcro. it should work in all conditions and not require re-application of tape, etc. Arjun Mandair

• adjusting height?

  • cabin is between wings, while on icarus the cabin sits lower.

  • airflow is better on icarus (cabin not in the way)

running old batteries → push prop was fine. if interference becomes an issue later on…. rip

16” prop for icarus, upsize the landing gear for Cornflakes a bit – ICARUS sync to confirm this is one we’re using. Alison Thompson to check metal stock

How’s this going Mech - Tracking Antenna

CAD looking good. Notes from Conall:

• Looks at using bearings on the pitch stage

• Double check you are using cont rotation servos

• Needs more fleshing out for all component mounting
