SD 2003-2004 Work Folder

For this Fall 2003 quarter, a weekly work schedule and the grading each work is worth will been defined.

Work Folder

Week 4: Off-the-shelf ducted fan units provide promise but their dynamic thrust needs to be assessed experimentally. Future test and verification demands a test rig. Rate gyros and accelerometers are critical for stable hover and will require an embedded micro to acquire real-time data. As such, the following tasks were delegated:

Specify and acquire a ducted fan and associated parts.
Measure dynamic thrust versus motor RPM. Compare with theory
Construct a test rig
Begin learning PIC microcontroller
Document all the above into an on-line web page
