This past week, I have mostly focused on researching materials and working on our CAD model of the launcher. I have been spending a lot of time researching the DC motors we’re going to use to launch, since that is the crux of our project. I’ve been trying to find a balance between getting something powerful enough, but also at a reasonable price and footprint. We also have been working together on the design presentation.
I believe we are still on schedule, and I finished the CAD model like I had planned last week. For next week, I’d like to at least get the motors ordered and have a few pieces 3d printed.
