April 13th:
Over the weekend, we fielded the drone for the first time at my school's Ultimate Frisbee tournament, Paideia Cup. The winds were gusting at 25 mph, and promptly buckled the aluminum frame. A week before the competition, our drone has been ripped apart. The electronics survived, but the frame is completely trashed. Now we're going to have to go through a radical re-design and building phase. We're going to try to design a frame that is much more stable and sturdy, and can deal with wind gusts. We're going to do our best to be ready for the competition on Friday.
