PR’s and Reviews

  • A couple from Jack, a few from Yuchen, etc.

  • need to redo the pwm PR based on ZeroPilot-SW/Safety/src/pwm.cpp line: 67-74

Updates this week!

(Updates here → see table of contents for structure)

Path Manager

  • Finalized definition of waypoints, etc. Will be grinding PM this weekend

  • Takeoff/landing

    • can use velocity targetting in AM

    • Math should be good to go.

      • how long until simulator testing?

Attitude Manager

  • redefined FSM → will implement over Reading week.

Telemetry Manager

  • got the xbee library made by aadi, may need to adapt to RFD 900.

  • Will have xbee rtf e.o. next week

LOS

  • Tasks for LOS are out!

  • Guy: LOS Actuators

  • Chris: LOS Link

  • Mostafa: LOS Pos

  • Tony: LOS Telem

  • Stanley: SD Card Driver prototype

  • This weekend we will go over proposals on how people want to implement their interface and I (Chris) will hopefully get the LOS repo sorted out.

Infra + Devops

Simulator

  • Matlab/simulink chosen?

  • getting familiar with it before tackling simulator

  •  

Tuning + Testing

  •  

Priorities next week:

  • GET LOS DONE

  • tune

  • test

STUCK!

Team Member Updates

Anni:

  • I hate how STM32 uses DIFFERENT connectors on EVERY nucleo.

Gordon:

  • Looking for a Path Manager to build off

    • Would like to make a document with the different cases for Path Manager

  • Design of takeoff and landing seems pretty much unchanged from earlier

    • If I can pass velocity targets to AM that would be awesome, but only if already required

Jack:

  • PR Integrating SF code + more states in AM. Fixed issues with running SF and AM running in parallel

  • Looking into more AM/PM work in the future

  • Looking into crossfire drivers

Stanley

Yuchen Lin

  • need to redo the pwm output for the and will be testing it next week

  • need to take a look at the aadi xbee communication library and perform the RFD 900 range test and drop package test next week.

Chris

 

Taim

  • Worked with Mostafa to come up with architecture proposal for simulator

  • Learning MATLAB/Simulink to get familiar with the program (Simulink is chosen for simulator)

Things to look out for!

  • New RC-Link modules

  • New VTX modules

  • Oh-so-many antennas

  • testbed airframes
