Flight Test Updates

  • 2025-03-07 Flight Test (2025-3-7 Pegasus 2 Task 1 Sim, KML messages over MAVLink, and foam plane pilot training )

    • Card #1 (Peggy IR Cam)

      • KML not flown as Autonomy was unable to get it running

      • Flew Huston IR cam test, exact same process, but with Peggy

      • Noticed only different was more vibe, so will discuss ways to improve detection algorithm (likely will need some config tuning)

    • Card #2 (Tuning)

      • Flew a final performance eval flight

      • Manasva Katyal analyzed logs, vibe and step response are within “very good” bounds as per Ardupilot docs

      • This marks the final official tuning related flight for the airframe

      • Will come back to future of this airframe when discussing Task 1

Task 1

  • Autonomy Updates:

    • STATUS: MAVLink KML messages

      • At previous flight test, system was runtime erroring and thus was not flown

    • STATUS: Solutions to False Detections

    • STATUS: Geolocation of Beacons

    • STATUS: Pathing

  • STATUS: EFS Tuning Airframe

    • Officially done the tuning cycle

    • Analyzed flight logs, step response and vibe are reduced and within “very good” thresholds according to Ardupilot docs

    • Will start process on Pegasus at the next flight test!

    • Thoughts on transitioning the airframe to a pilot training frame once pilot training program is started up?

Task 2

Other

  • Full Team Work Session

    • After discussion Evan Janakievski , Manasva Katyal deemed that full team worksession might not be the best for efficiency

    • Instead will run an auto bootcamp to bring up all onsite members in all aspects of operating the system (Maxwell Lou )

    • Will right after that run a high level intro to the entire system we run on our drones (Manasva Katyal + Evan Janakievski )

  • STATUS: Comp Readiness

  • STATUS: Backup Airframe

  • PLANNING: Transporting the drone

  • PLANNING: Proof of flight video
