Topics

  • goals of W24 (focus on comp critical projects)

  • EE Meetings and work sessions

  • Coming up with new projects

  • Using Asana

  • Flight test

 

 

  • Harness

    • Most of harness is there

    • need to change for specific flight test

    • schematic on altium

    • add a buck board on pegasus

    • ask Nathan for help

  • potentially a 2nd drone

  • Gemini

    • handed over to firmware

    • electrical testing is done

  • LED pcb

    • see W24 ee director sync

  • Tracking antenna

    • Nice to have for comp

    • maybe not enough time to test?

    • firmware side is stuck

  • high current power module

    • not comp critical

  • Split up who's managing which PCB projects

    • Nolan:

      • Tracking Antenna - No longer comp critical

      • ZP3 interface - Not comp critical

    • Mena:

      • PDB - Not comp critical

      • High Current Power Module - No longer comp critical

    • Jerry:

      • 12S Servo Module - Not comp critical

      • 6S ESC - Not comp critical

    • Neel:

      • LED Driver board - Comp critical (for extra points)

      • Can Sensor Interface - Not comp critical

  • Project process

    • Brainstorm project → Block diagram → Component Selection → Schematic → Schematic Review → PCB Design → PCB Review → Sourcing → Assembly → Testing

  • voice opinion, don’t say yes because pressure

  • meeting probably 7pm - 8pm Thursday

    • earlier time would encourage in person attendance

    • Jerry will make an announcement later

    • Jerry will lead the 1st meeting

  • Work Sessions

    • >2 people leading PCB assembly / wire harness

    • Great that wiring and assembly sessions already being handled

    • most work session will happen in bay

    • Board assembly work sessions

      • ZP3 - on hold

      • ZP3 Board Tracking

      • Potential boards

        • Servo module

        • tracking antenna

        • LED

        • High current

  • not enough new members

  • hold bootcamp work sessions, in discord / in person / after meeting

    • weekly bootcamp work sessions

    • Jerry & Neel will help with bootcamp review this term

  • realistically only CAN module

    • ask Michael to manage it

  • prioritize projects that EFS can work on, e.g. CAN module

  • use it to encourage member to set their own goals

  • Jerry: asana is too much documentation work, checking confluence is enough to be on track as leads

  • only useful if we have a PM

  • stop emphasizing on asana

  • bring this up in leads meeting

  • maybe ask ppl to write down timelines on confluence

  • depends on competition sync

  • drone harness will be tested every time there is a flight test

  • only need to test LED visibility this term

    • any weekend would work
