TVC Test 1

- Successful Static Fire test of Eagle TVC Gimbal, ByteLyte prototype PCB, and Anchor test mount. Used an Estes F15 Motor. The goal was to verify the mechanical strength of the mount and the functionality of other systems.
The Gimbal survived throughout the entire test and showed no signs of cracks upon inspection, indicating it successfully performed.
The prototype worked nearly perfectly except for PYRO channel 1, which seemed to not be working at the time.
The software worked perfectly.
Future work:
The Y pushrod has slightly too much space, which allowed it to wiggle. This should be fixed for more precise movement of the gimbal while motors are firing.
For future thrust-vectored model rocketry:
A barometer and IMU should be added to the protoboard for orientation and altitude measurements during flight
The software must also be updated to respond to these measurements.
Switching to a PCB instead of a protoboard to reduce weight and size of the board.
Nice I hope you post more vids and progressive info. Keep up the good work man.
Nice, do you have a timeline for the next test upload? I'm interested in performance after the pushroad has been adjusted.
I do not currently have a timeline for the next test as I have gotten quite busy lately. It will just depend on when I have the time/motivation.
thrust vectoring dude 👍👍
nice
Really nice! I'm thinking of starting something like that but I never tried nothing like it.
Just out of curiosity do you have any college background ?
The hell you need college background for anything other than a professional job that requires a certification.
Nope, I don't have a college background. I would just do a bunch of research and take the necessary precautions for any tests. Channels like BPS Space were really helpful for me.
@@TheGarrettR Absolutely. If you are a self learner just experiment with things. Build things that keep you awake. And for bigger projects that are challenging, hit the theory books also. Don't become that practical only guy on RUclips doing magnet motor perpetual machines, by understanding the basics.
