Having been stuck at my parents house, I have accomplished very little this past week. I've sketched out a couple more pages on the proposal, read a couple more papers, but very little substantial. I'll try to add what I've done to the proposal by the end of the week. I sorely miss my computer.
Sadly, I'm going to be even less productive over the next 5 weeks. From June 15th to July 15th, I'm going to be driving around the country, helping my parents move and visiting a bunch of national parks. It'll be an exciting adventure. Of course I'll regret it when I have to get back to work and realize how much stuff I need to get done before the school year begins.
Anyways, substantial info. I've fleshed out the thrust test rig section. This piece of equipment is going to be very critical to the success of the project. I have to give much thanks to Old Man Mike and 13brv3 for their excellent work with a similar thrust test rig. They've devoted countless months trying to find the best motor to use and how to decrease unwanted oscillation. While I won't be testing out other motors, I hope to be able to contribute to their great work. My test rig will mostly be dedicated to providing a detailed model of the motor system. One of the problems that they have been facing is the lack of detailed specifications. Hopefully in the course of my work, I'll be able to provide some details.
Hopefully I'll get another update soon
