The plane is looking good and all it needs is the battery. We are waiting till next class to put the battery since we are not present. The battery might go in the front but we are considering other spots. Maybe somewhere more centered on the plane.

More than likely we have come to the conclusion that the battery will go there in the front. The picture shows the open spot on the front of the plane that works perfectly. Only concern is that there will be a lot of weight on the front of the plane. We should test how having a heavy front weight effects the plane.

Today we replaced one of the rotors on the wing. We think this mechanism will work better when moving that wing than the stock aluminum string. The wings are doing good and I think the next step is to find a place for the battery and servos.

To this day work on the plane has been limited due to the teams attendance. Trent is in Colorado somewhere in the mountains and Angel is just as lost as usual. I got a lot of work done on the plane really quick but have not been able to see it lately

Today we put the motor on and got all the makeup on. By make up I mean everything that makes the thing work but none of it is connecting or being powered by anything. We still need to place the battery in the plane and figure out wire management. It’s hard when your team mates don’t show up to class and u can’t show up either because u have baseball.

Today we began to build the hardware. I began to place the servers to the wings and taping everything together. I haven’t seen Trent in a while and angel still has ADHD. I was thinking of buying adoral off the street for Angel because I think he’s gonna become unstoppable

Now today we have received our hardware. It’s pretty cool and now we have to figure out where all these prices go. It’s seems pretty self explanatory. We have found a plane that is exactly like ours so I think we will just be copying the way they built theirs. I am working on this almost by myself angel has the worst case of undiagnosed ADHD.
