RV JET(FIXED WING AIRCRAFT)

Image
  My team and I have been dealing with RV jet(fixed-wing aircraft) by wiring and programming an RV jet. We had to draw a wiring diagram for all components of the RV jet in order to wire the RV jet on our own. So, I made each part of the wiring diagram with my teammate. after that, we got RV jet all connected based on our diagram.  The next step was calibrating sensors and setting up systems. First of all, we started to set up systems for the RV jet by uploading the latest firewire version. But, there were some issues with the Ardupilot we had to choose the PX4 Pro Stable Release v1.13.2 firmware version instead of Ardupilot. We ended up uploading the firmware. And then we calibrated the gyroscope and the accelerometer. It was easier than the last one. All we had to do was hold the aircraft in straightforward for the gyroscope and we held it downward facing for the accelerometer. The final step was to calibrate the airspeed indicator and pilot system. We tried to do it with default, but

  We made a motor move by using simple buttons to replace the complexities of the electronic speed controller. in order to accomplish this, we needed to create a circuit by completing particular circuit routes  ​ There are two components that consist of BLDC motor. the first one is a stationary component called a stator and stators have several distinct coils of wire that carry electrical current. the other one is a rotating component called a rotor and this rotor consists of permanent magnets outlining the casing.  ​ ㅁ When current flows through a coil of wire, it creates a magnetic field with distinct north and south poles that functions much like a regular magnet. ㅁ The poles of the permanent magnet and electromagnet must either attract or repel each other based on the direction of the current flow in order to cause rotation of the BLDC. If we apply the appropriate current, the coil will generate a magnetic field that will attract the rotors permanent magnet. Now if we activate each
