SR2021 Prometheus Action Items / Issues

• Modeling/Simulation: Take in everyone's OpenRocket models and begin working on combining them into one cohesive design that uses the best of everyone's.
  

• Avionics: Read through all the links posted above to get familiar with our COTS avionics systems.
  

• Website/Media Designer: Message Joy Sangsrichan over slack and ask her about getting access to the website.
  

• Presentation Designer: Nothing this week!
  

• BOM Maker: Create a BOM spreadsheet and add the body tubes to it. (you need cost, number of items, name, and link for each item)
  

• Numbers Person: Read through this link to learn about Thrust to Weight Ratios.
  

Everyone:

• Sign in to the wiki using your RIT email.

Modeling/Simulation:

• Produce a finalized OpenRocket model, submit to James ASAP, goal is to have model reviewed and finalized by Saturday.

Avionics:

• Decide whether or not doing the collaborative board with the Avionics team is worth pursuing (highly recommend it!)

CAD Designer:

• 1. Design the body tube in this link.
• 2. Design 1/4" bulkheads.
• 3. Design coupler tubes from this link.

Website/Media Designer:

• Add current team member list to website page.

Presentation Designer:

• Create skeleton CDR slides (literally just copying PDR over and renaming to CDR will work for now)

BOM Maker:

• Add 1 roll of Hatchbox PLA 3d printer filament to BOM (look up on amazon). Specify amount to be 0.5kg, so total cost will be half the cost of one roll.

Numbers Person:

• Read through this link to understand calculations for parachutes.

Everyone:

• Figure out what part of the rocket you'll present for the CDR.

Modeling/Simulation:

• Run motor simulation for final OpenRocket model(after parachute calculation is made and parachutes are updated), and put in CDR

Avionics:

• Generate slides for the COTS avionics system
• Overview of COTS avionics w/ James
• (If pursuing) decide what the custom avionics board should be capable of.

CAD Designer:

• Create entire CAD model for rocket, driven by OpenRocket model

Website/Media Designer:

• Add team mission to website

Presentation Designer:

• Create blank CDR slides for Thrust to Weight Ratio, OpenRocket Model, Fin Flutter calculations, CAD model, Parachute calculations, and anything else not listed that was in the PDR

BOM Maker:

• Add parachute given by Numbers Person to BOM
• Add coupler tubes to BOM
• Add rocket motor to BOM

Numbers Person:

• Calculate Thrust to Weight ratio for the rocket and add to the CDR
• Calculate ideal parachute diameters, use this number to drive our parachute choice (from this website), and add all that info to the CDR
• Give parachute choice to BOM Maker to add
