My contribution
03
Design process
The project uses staged development: system requirements, architecture and loss analysis, schematic review, low-risk subsystem testing, PCB implementation, and instrumented propulsion validation.
04
Technical challenges
The design had to resolve these system-level and implementation requirements.
05
Validation or results
Development is underway. Technical details and measured results will be added as design-review and validation milestones are completed.
06
Images and diagrams
High-resolution screenshots, annotated diagrams, prototype photographs, waveforms, and test results will be added as the project progresses.
