Overall Objective
The main overall premise of this lab was to reprogram the flight controller with a new software and ensure our receivers were set up correctly. In addition to this, our team also had to create a wiring diagram for the believer setup since this was the last day we were going to be able to utilize it. Our team divided the tasks and I worked on the wiring diagram, while everyone else worked on the software installation. Some problems that I faced was the testing of the D-sub pins and ensuring we were labeling the correct wire for the future. We ultimately overcame this by using a bare pin connected to a wire with a digital multimeter to back track and problem solve. Both teams accomplished that tasks asked and we are ultimately ready to continue progressing further into this field.

Connecting to any aircraft require two things. A transmitter and receiver. On our aircraft we are using the controller as a User Interface for a third party transmitter rather than using the built in transmitter. The TBS Tracer Micro Starter set is what we are using.
Solder appropriate parts (confirm with instructor) solder header pin on GND, 5V, CH1 on the receiver module solder the 4th empty pin to reduce vibration to minimize potential sparks Covered Questions
