One significant risk for the project is that, in addition to the complexity of the individual systems, integrating the systems into a working product will also be difficult. To manage this risk we plan to coordinate well and complete the individual subsystems quickly to allow a lot of time for integration.
Another significant risk is that we need to find a way to do test flights of the drone. To manage this risk we plan on contacting testing sites and applying for use of them early, as soon as next week even though the drone won’t be ready to fly yet just to make sure we have access to a way to do test-flights.
Early on in the week, there was significant design development, refinement, and modification as we were working on the project proposal presentation. There have not been any further changes to the design of the system yet, and the current design can be found in the project proposal slides.
