THINGS TO DISCUSS:
- Put Big Red Bee on battery side of av bay
- do we have any reason not to keep it on all the time other than battery draw? If that's our tracker, probably beneficial to always have it on
- If it's always on, we can keep it on battery side of sled and have a direct connection with no RBF switch in between it and power

Construction:
- Bulkhead located on top of av bay
- Entire av bay can be pulled out in one piece
- Need wiring passthroughs for deployments
...
- Holds panel mount connector that will go into top bulkhead passthrough
- Threaded rods screwed into camera bulkhead but extend beyond into the top bulkhead
Cameras
- Wires coiled in center (not needed if we're going with the panel mount passthroughs discussed above)
...
- We should not need to access nuts or screws in the regions between the two sleds
- Huge pain in the ass
- Riv-nuts ( ? )
- Threaded inserts + Standoffs
- Alternate Solutions
- Batteries all on one side
- Power leaves Sled Side A (contains battereis), goes up into switches, and goes down into Sled Side B where Avionics are located
- MAYBE have a PCB taht takes in all the random avionics cables and turns them into a single type of standardized connector, that way we have less harnessing and mess
Lower Sled Bulkhead (Non-Structural)
- Holds sleds in place (small indentations for sled channels)
- Clamped to Bottom Bulkhead with Nuts on threaded rods
Bottom bulkheadBulkhead (Structural)
- removeable w/ square O-ring slot except the O-ring is a quattro
- 0.75" thick bulkhead
- LUBE
- LOTS AND LOTS OF LUBE
- AND EVEN MORE LUBE
- screw holes on top of quattro ring
- one piece with eyebolt (4th axis baybeee!)
- Look for a normal one, if Jim wants to be bold he can do that on his own time
- Threaded rods run through, gets secured with nuts
- Screws will enter the bulkhead from outside the rocket
