RV JET(FIXED WING AIRCRAFT)

 

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 it didn’t work at first. So we had to change the right parameters for proper calibration. We used SENS_EN_SDP3X and ASPD_PRIMARY parameters. After that, one of our team members blew into the system in order to calibrate airflow.

​

Now, we are stuck with this because of the error of LIDAR system, the module is broken now at this moment, so we are waiting for a new one.

Final project(UAS data mapping mission)

Image
Required for the mission:         Mobile device with supporting mission planning software          A UAS Platform/Sensor of your choice I was asked to fly an assigned mission plot at PWA with this parameter. Altitude: 122m Lateral and Frontal Overlap: 80% Use the search function to find and open the Add Z Information (3D Analyst Tools) tool. This tool calculates properties of 3D shapes and appends the result to the attribute table of the input feature class. In this step, you will calculate the length of each sight line. Set the following parameters: Input Features: LOS_Lines Output Property: 3-Dimensional Length      The purpose of this project is to conduct a UAV mission to collect aerial imagery and data for a specific area at PWA(Purdue wildlife Area). The mission area has been assigned and the goal was to fly the assigned mission area while ensuring that the flight boundaries are slightly larger than the assigned area to ensure complete coverage. The Pilot(Jinwook paek) and my v

Volumetric analysis with UAS Data

Image
In a previous lab, I completed some ESRI tutorials regarding raster data analysis. This time, I engaged in raster data analysis using UAS data gathered over the course of a mine dredging operation. I needed to draw upon what I've learned in the ESRI tutorials so far. ·        Extract by mask This tool extracts the cells of a raster that correspond to the areas defined by a mask. The mask is typically a raster dataset where cells with a certain value represent the areas I want to extract. ·          Resample Resampling is the process of changing the resolution of a raster dataset. ·          Surface volume The Surface Volume tool calculates the volume between two surfaces. I began on the 4 th of July to where the mine operation tells of the dredging to take place, and for me to establish a base dataset to know how much material was added. They are also concerned about slope failure and low lying flat areas where water will collect. Because the area flown is pretty large,
