    10-30-17 / 11-3-17 review

    Comments

    This week we had four classes, so I could've gotten a lot done, but the first was cancelled, and the second we talked the whole time, so that only left me with the last two classes. When we talked during the second class of the week, we wrote out our plans for the rest of the semester, and put them in our weblogs. You can find it before 10-30-17 in mine. The third class, I started soldering the batter connection wires onto the power distribution board. I unsoldered two sets of wires from two different boards, and began re-soldering them onto the big power distribution board. Now we are able to attach two batteries to the drone. The last class of the week, I finished soldering the wires onto the board, and tweaked the motors a little, making the configuration correct, and fixing the motor that kept binding up. Here is a diagram of the correct motor configuration. We have a Quad X, the one on the right.

    Here is a picture of the finished wires after they were soldered onto the power distribution board.
