Overall update from Luke

All of the known machining that had to be competed is now finally completed. Assembly of the physical frame was started on Friday, however was only short lived due to other obligations. Cody and I have spent lots of time reading up on the control algorithms that we have to familiarize ourselves with in order to keep our platform stable in the air.
I biggest technical problem is actually get our control loops to have enough speed to keep all of our physical systems in order.
Goals for next week include finish the quadcopter build. Receive all electrical parts. Possibly start populating the circuit board.
