Points to Discuss

Meeting Minutes

General

Questions

Todos

  • Testing documentation and planning
  • how heavy?
  • see solidworks which includes pcbs

Notes

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?

Wiring Harness

  • Teensy: on side, throughhole
    • Needs SD-card
  • IMU: off the shelf instead of mounted. onboard. connectors
  • uart and I2C are exposed for debugging
  • improved routing

Todos

  • Change connectors
  • check teensy

Propulsion Harness

  • Shape changed
  • LEDs are integrated
  • angle sensor port has shifted upwards

Todos

  • test connector with wiring harness

Rotor Head PCB

  • takes in 70V, converts to 8.4V
  • heating wire
  • rotorhead servo control
  • solder pads for brushes

Todos

  • Current carrying capability 8.4V. find alternate solution

Solderblob Bypass

  1. 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

  • still old.
  • heartbeat
  • wiring harness connection

Angle Sensor Board

  • 4 new boards with vidit

LED boards

Motor and ESCs

  • What ESCs are used?
  • What Motors are used?
