  • Intro

    • what progress has been made in the last month?

      • can stuff

        • messages getting into stm32

        • we can send and read messages

        • ready to start implementing custom stuff

      • tracking antenna

        • M2 code is complete except for some minor cleanup

          • lots of work is setting up the groundside router and integration touches

          • should EFS set up ground station, some of the integration

            • they have servos for testing

            • need the board and mech to get it rlly working

      • zeropilot

        • starting up on PM again

        • IMU driver dev blocking

        • System manager has ioc file issues

    • what do you and your team want to achieve in the next month?

      • CAN Stuff

        • want to get an output going, PWM or DSHOT

      • Tracking Antenna

        • laying framework for this

        • static IPs on router

        • integration test with drone instead of just with simulation

      • ZP

        • Complete IMU driver for M3 Attitude manager

        • Fixing system manager IOC

        • Finish telemetry manager

        • Implement failsafe in prep for M2 (bug fix in rc receiver driver?)

        • At least a month out for Flight test, would want to do just M2 because changing ioc is big

    • what roadblocks do you need help clearing to make this happen?

      • getting members to commit to doing work is the bigest roadblock right now

        • Keep WARG Engaging!

        • try to present system level and long term vision - already doing this

        • we need a way for people to consistently contribute

          • Example: CAN stuff, took a month to start making projects, a vast majority of the work was Derek and Roni

          • Want more commitment out of more people

          • communicating deadlines and more specific expectations, helping people break things down

        • PMs

        • some deadlines communicated and didn’t happen

          • breaking things down into smaller pieces

          • set expectations

          • pm is an earned role, if people do not meet expectations (aren’t communicating) u can un PM them

          • have conversations with people when they're not meeting expectations and it will be easier to come up with a solution

        • meetings are 30mins then work session

          • lots of progress during the work sessions

      • want a real tracking antenna system, but it’s not really required for EFS

        • this is pretty negligible

  • Sitedness

    • derek offsite, hardy onsite

  • Gemini System

    • ground test

    • we need to profile it

    • easiest way to do this is flight
