Tracking Antenna - General
Action items / blockers:
Add spacer so that the pitch axis can be used.
Implement method in software so that the tracker knows its starting bearing.
Remove debug code that requires a serial monitor connection to run antenna tracker.
Updates:
Tracking antenna yaw axis was tested and working at the flight test last Sunday.

EFS | North Bearing | The calibration to the magnetometer seems really doable, we could also add tile compensation so the compass will still be correct if the tower is not leveled. Encountered some soft/hard iron calibration issues today, when trying to rotate the tracking antenna for 360, the calibration progress struggles to go up. This is the only piece that we need to make this work. Roni is trying to figure out why. |

General Updates
We leave for comp in just over one week.
Autonomy lap timing script must be tested in realflight with wind and gusts before Saturday, or it will not be used at comp.
Need to determine how the antenna tracker and the autonomy timing script can work at the same time, this must be implemented by Saturday or we are going to hard-code a number of laps.
Flight test schedule
Saturday May 18th, last flight test before comp.
We need to be at this flight test with our final comp configuration. The antenna tracker must be working and finalized by Saturday. If something is not run/not working at this flight test it will be scrapped for comp.
