One thing that we hoped to complete last Friday was the building of the frame of the quadcopter. We had to drill some precision holes into our material to insure that everything would be nicely balanced. However, the machine shop was closed and we had do everything besides putting together the physical frame. We got all of our motors and ESCs soldered. We tested our first ESC and it broke shortly after. We tested our second ESC and everything passed with flying colors. We had the motor running for about 15 minutes continuously and everything was still working to spec.
This coming week we hope to have the frame assembled and maybe our final revision our power board done this week. Work on the control system should be in full swing.
