#PCBWay3rdPCBDesignContest@CUUASS 's flight control system is primarily designed for fixed-wing, autonomous #drones to enable them to perform tasks autonomously, such as take-off, landing, waypoint navigation, payload delivery, etc.

Our Mark I drone is nearing completion with the fuselage now being fully assembled and all electronics and sensors mounted! (Please excuse the rather messy workplace...) @IMechEUAS@DysonCentreCamb@Cambridge_Eng
After a long break, we’re back building our main aircraft frame!
Wings now have a Carbon Fibre wing spar, ailerons, and flaps.

A brief article - including code and YouTube video - demonstrating how we perform attitude estimation in our UAV using an inexpensive and noisy inertial measurement unit: https://t.co/1qWiXn82C2 @IMechEUAS@Cambridge_Eng@DysonCentreCamb
Check out our video, looking at the initial development of our custom flight simulator which we'll use to design our autonomous algorithms and control systems for the 2019 IMechE Uas Challenge: https://t.co/vAOYpw1aXG

Producing our UAV's first wing!
We're using blocks of XPS foam, then cutting our airfoil shape, ailerons, and flaps using a hot-wire cutter. Finally, the wing is layered with fibre glass and vacuum-bagged overnight - more updates to come!
