====== Components ====== ====== Flight Computer ====== Two AVR system as outlined [[ideas:flying_wing|here]] has now been completed. {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7190024.jpg?700|}} ====== Thermopile Pitch and Roll sensor and amplifier board ====== == V 2.0 (with a2d convertor and spi interface) == PCB: {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:thermoboard2.2pcb.png?650|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:thermoboard2.3pcb.png?650|}} Schematic (using AD7923): {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:thermoboard2.0.png?700|}} fitting the pcb into a 20mm square is proving hard, but hopefully it will prove possible, and can be sent off to batchpcb soon. == V 1.0 (analogue) == A milled enclosure has now been made for smaller Nicera sensors obtained from Chartland electronics {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:explode2.jpg?600|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:box4.jpg|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:box1.jpg|}} The plan is to fit a SMD amplifier board inside the enclosure. The design is now complete and has been sent to batchpcb.com for production :-) {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:schematic.jpg?800|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:design.png?600|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:schematic.png?600|}} The prototype thermopile sensor unit has been epoxied to a pice of balsa that will for the back of the parachute release mechanism on the glider. {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7190023.jpg?300|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7190022.jpg?300|}} === Test system === {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7180019.jpg?700|}} {{projects:ukhas_glider_project:thermos.jpg?700|}} === Sensor Head === {{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7140020.jpg?700| Back of unit}} {{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:p7140019.jpg?700| Front and test kit}} ====== Parachute Deployment System ====== {{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:piston.jpg|:projects:ukhas_glider_project:piston.jpg}}{{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:piston2.jpg|:projects:ukhas_glider_project:piston2.jpg}} {{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:explode.jpg|:projects:ukhas_glider_project:explode.jpg}} {{:projects:ukhas_glider_project:packed.jpg|:projects:ukhas_glider_project:packed.jpg}}
