With final exams chasing our heels, UAV Forge wraps it up for the year. Here are the last tasks the teams have completed and their goals for next quarter. The Propulsion team has nearly completed a prototype structure of the tilt rotor set up. They have confirmed that the tandem software for the tilt rotor controller is working, but the …
We have a new 3D printer to help 3D print our parts! Propulsion team designed and printed the tilt rotor joint that allows the housing to rotate. To fit the joint into the housing, they had to cut rotor’s metal frame. Next they will work on the new flight controller and problem-solve some issues with the low servo angular range …
UAV Forge has had some interesting developments so far! The Propulsion team has been performing tilt-rotor spiral mode analysis to find ways to control how the plane moves. In addition, they want to create a new gimbal and test bench to experimentally prove their research ideas. The Mechanical Design team is working on designing three parts of the plane. First, …
