Sept 07, 2022

Meeting goal:

  • Update from subteams

  • Decide payload

Rocket Mission:

  1. Refine fit and finish of rocket and design process/testing

  2. Flight Computer (backplane)

  3. Deployable Payload

Old Items

Structures:
Finish inventory
Fix xwinder
CAD at least the booster

Payload:
Figure out secondary payload

Avionics:
Each module owner - make block diagram
-make sure including newer members
-send update to Ben

Action Items for this week

Structures

  • Design

  • Analysis 

  • Manufacturing

  • Design

    • CAD parts started

  • Analysis

    • Met with grace

    • research into what other teams have done (list of other ideas from teams in drive, multiple forms of verification and testing, ground testing)

  • Manufacturing

    • X-winder fixed

    • Inventory complete

    • CAD parts started

n/a

  • Design

    • Update OpenRocket

      • Deployable payload

      • Avoid wires passing the reaction wheel

      • Continue CAD

  • Analysis

    • More research into testing ideas 

    • Pick testing to be done

    • make priority list

      • make timeline

  • Manufacturing

    •  Saturday

      • wind test tube CF

        • check materials tonight (tues)

Payload

  • Design

  • Analysis

  • Manufacturing

Deciding what to do:

 

 

Decide what our payload mission is

  • Decide payload mission and scope of reaction wheel decision: Airbrakes!!!

  • Payload weekly meeting

  • Once mission is decided create timeline 

  • Start design this Saturday and establish the goal (data collection)

Avionics

  • Backplane

  • Ave bay 

  • Primary/seconday system

  • Backplane

    • mods assigned 

      • Billy=backplane, ben= autopilot, mary/louis=sensor, dante=radio, james=power

    • picked out possible components for sensor board 

  • Ave bay

    • thinking

 

  • finish block

  • Pick components or other mods

yev to do 101 for payload and av bay design

Reaction Wheel

  • What is reaction wheel?

    • reduce drag and lower deployment risk

    • cost of the system?

      • 200-300 max

    • Who is going to be manufacturing this?

      • new member with Nate?

Have to test before flight

  • Generate timeline

  • Finish first prototype 

  • Find machining help 

  • Research max spin failure mode

  • Research effects of torsion

  • Research moving wheel away from the center

  • RESEARCH

Other

  • TEST FLIGHT

  • Integration 

 

  • Research where and what we will need to do this?

  • What would our timeline be?
