Flight Data Acquisition

Working Progress:

• Morning: First flight with the takeoff assistance from Edward

• Afternoon: More successful flights with screen recordings

• Reconfigured the cockpit with improvised velcro strap

• Since Pixhawk is now roll-rotated 180 degs, we had to recalibrate

Remaining Issues:

• Unexpectedly, the motor arm stick position shifted from right rudder to left rudder, which delayed our flights until Alex found this out in the afternoon

• Screen recordings show discontinuous GPS tracking, could be due to interference from currents due to compact wiring in the cockpit AND/OR from the magnet that secures the cockpit

In our design, we would try to arrange the wiring and avoid using magnets so that interference is minimal.
