How hot would it get when carrying 5A without the blob? 1. ![[Pasted image 20250108110043.png]] It would heat up 45° above environmental temperature. 2. How often do we pull 5A? How well can the heat dissipation work? ### Carrierboard - wiring harness connector - updated buck converter to work with battery voltage - new ethernet port - flarm connector - debugging: - gness uart exposed #### Todos: - test hailo and cameras and ethernet - compare ethernet performance between V2 and V1.2. ### PDBs - challenge with UPDB: permenant configuration: golden file for BMS - 3.3V power line needed for configuration of the BMS - ringing and lagging in amplifier circuits - LPDB: remove IMUs ### Parachute Board ### Angle Sensor Board - 4 new boards with vidit ### LED boards ### --- Normal PCBs: 5 Flex PCBs: 3 LED Boards: 4 (2 hard lower bridge, 2 flex wingtip) --> 12 pcbs on board more boards planned: - optical flow sensor board ---> too expensive, size and additional microcontroller which we don't want. - garmin lidar light v3 - pitot tube - payload box? - lidar sensor? - problem: holding it at a certain place: worm gear?
