- The top side pressurization, regulator and blow off vent valves are all done.
- The igniter plumbing is all done.
- 3 of the four motors are plumbed.
- The structural framing is all complete.
- The first cut of the landing gear is done and 3 of 4 are on the vehicle.
- (Were going to change the Landing gear slightly so we don't melt it.)
- The new control board electronics have finished initial testing and seem to work.
Propane igniter:
We did some testing with using a normal camp stove propane cylinder as the fuel source for the igniter, and it looks like the tank orifice is too small and it won't feed 4 motors. We will be switching to a paint ball tank for the propane source tank.
Paperwork:
I've been working on the hardware and have neglected the FAA paperwork side. They are going to put my 120 day clock on hold until I finish up some details I owe them.
