Start time:11AM

End time:

Members present: Crystal, JP, Eric, Gafei

Members Attending Next Meeting:

Finished wiring the controls onto the actual sheet metal interface
Fixed miscellaneous wiring issues (3 way toggle switch LEDs were reversed, soldered yellow/white pin back onto ribbon connector, Replaced a broken 2-way toggle switch, covered resistors with electrical tape)
Painted the yellow thunderbolt
Implemented cable management with cable ties onto the the electrical controls
Tested the toggle switch LEDs, signal light LEDs and control
Mounted saitek arm/manipulator joystick with velcro onto the sheet metal
Determined the correct timing for the pontentiometers (from ADC) for the autonomous delay. It'll be a digital value from 0-15.

Find a way to protect the bottom of the control interface.
- Lexan is currently being considered.
- Possibly split the lexan into different "zones" or as a straight piece with bars on the bottom side to mount the lexan.
Determine what functions the toggle switches will perform
Determine how the cover for the joysticks will be implemented
Consider a "safety" for the classmate to secure it "better?"
