Comp Design Direction

Alison Thompson

  • General design changes for Peggy 2 will be added payload and angled landing gear

  • Angled landing gear will let us more accurately land centered on the barrel

  • Examining 2 payload options, working on both in parallel:

    • Simple pump design

    • More complex scoop design

Tracking Antenna

Sohee Yoon

  • Planning to water jet the angle limiters this week

  • Agapa Goombs how’s the baseplate stabilizer going? Tracking Antenna Revival

    • The plate modifications are done, as well as new posts with potential bearings added to the post assemblies → concern with sizing for the waterjet plates (45 cm D but the limit is 30 cm)

    • We’ll prob need to order (or find if we have them already) ball bearings for this

Eclipse (Fixed-Wing) Airframe

Evan Janakievski

Close to being finalized.

  • Need to work on integrating the fuselage and the plan for that.

  • The motor and camera mount is being finalized by Arnav Gupta

    • Calum Chisholm, the fuselage will need a new shape as the front of the plane is being changed from the adjustment of the motor mount

  • There may be some machining tasks when this is being constructed for those interested

Wings

Nathaniel Li

Empennage
    • We made some progress with our approach of taking the existing ribs, separating them according to the dimensions in the aileron sizing, and adding a 2-spar design. Want to take another look at the CAD on the weekend to finish up the hinges, finalize the spar dimensions/location and final assembly.
