My team had a chance to teardown UAS for this two-week lab. It was a lot more complicated than I thought. And some parts of our drone were already missing from the get-go, we were confused at first but we ended up tearing down ours perfectly. This is the process for teardown. Tear-Down Instructions: 1: Take Screws out of the center plastic that holds the harness w/ Phillips screwdriver (4 Screws) 2: Take Velcro Senor Harness off 3: Unplug Wires from Wire Hub 1, 2, 3, 4 , RCN Power2, USB, GPS 1 4: Unscrew/Take off Wire Hub 5: Unscrew and Take Off Plate/Assembly that holds the GPS station 6: Unscrew GPS Holder/Tower 7: Remove GPS sensor from GPS holder/tower 8: Cut the zip ties on the SimonK 30A 9: Cut the zip ties on the propeller arms 10: Unscrew and remove the top and bottom screws from the motor mounts 11: Remove Channel Receiver 12: Unscrew and Remove Prop Arms 13: Separate Central Square Plastic Mounts by removing the screws on both sides and the spacers in-between 14. Unscrew...
It was my first time dealing with skydio drone. I was excited to fly this drone, but the weather was not good to fly this last week. Actually, we went to the turf farm three times to do this lab. when we checked out the weather, it was fine, so we decided to go out but when we started to fly, it started raining out of the blue so we had to pack up and reschedule our flight, unfortunately, It happened the other day. We were able to fly it finally yesterday. Pre-flight 1. download the turf farm map in advance 2. verify the latest firmware 3. clean the camera lenses 4. identify potential hazards wind(18mph) -max wind resistance is 25mph but we need to care tree, especially branches- skydio can identify the obstacles but it can't identify small objects such as nets and branches, we need to be aware of that and don't need to fly around the tree 5. set flight boundary and height Flight Maneuvers I can choose two options when I do RTH. one is absolute height behavior, the ot...
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 def...
