introduction

This week I had to review all that I have been doing in my final project so far. I have used as many of the weeks as I can to make parts for the Wings. So I was very far along considering that I had done most the things for the wings I was not familiar with.

Sketches

The picture shows how my final project will be produced. Those boxes that have a check mark infront of them are those that I have finished. the Wings can be divided into four parts. Wings, backplate, electric and programing. The wing part is almost done. They just need to be wrapped and finshed off. The backplate is done. Electric, the PCB board is done but therest of the parts have to be done. All items have been collected though. Programming will be done after the board is fully assmbled. The work that is left can be done during the next few weeks.

  • Wing Material

    PETG bought at Fást .


    Lasercutting

    while lasercutting the material I figured out that it needs to be weight down or it warps.


  • Wing_All_R_70,002cm_X_65,981cm
  • Wing_All_L_70,002cm_X_65,981cm

  • Cleaning and cutting

    I needed to finish cutting the materal by hand because I didnt find the right setting at first. The material had warped so I could not use the file again to cut through.

  • Summary

    For the wings I had designed them, picked a material to make them out of. So all that was left was electronics and lights. I had made 2 wings but ended up going with the smaller ones because of the weight. For the backplate I had 3D printed them and saw several problems Im currently fixing in the next edition. For Electric I had designed all the parts and know what I want to fix. I also have to alter the backplate to fit with my design better. The shape and positioning of the electronic parts was problematic.
