Mechanical
Wings - Nathaniel
Prototype mini-wing successfully made
Increased overall size of ribs by 50% to accommodate components like servos (chord length up from 0.23m to 0.345m)
Flight characteristics would be roughly what we expected but with more lift and drag due to a larger wing area
Aileron holding back CAD from being finalized
Planning to make it out of 3d prints since assembling and wrapping small aileron sections will be challenging (and potentially heavier)
CAD for mounts is WIP
Avionics

Timeline
Manufacturing and ground testing timeline thoughts?
Nathaniel - Wings can most likely be manufactured by end of November
