9/7/22 Attaching the Payload
Colin Szeto
Here with the payload plate mounted onto the rail inserts the pins were not able to insert through the holes
By adding spacers between the t rail and the payload plate this eliminated the force the payload plate was pushing on the rail blocks and allowed the pin to slide through the holes easily
Interference was found between the magnetic claw interface plate and the mourning rail. This was due to the socket head m3 screws not modeled into the drone CAD
The drone causes quite a bit of down draft, in testing environments we want to eliminate debri jumping from the ground and cracking the oak-d lite glass lense.
We repurposed plastic sheets used for face shield as the camera cover
The plastic was cut to size to be glued onto the oak-d lite camera holder
The glue up was transferred to the vice to apply even constant pressure along the mated faces
This is the final result with the plastic adhered onto the front of the oak-d lite case
Here is both the HSI camera and the bottom facing oak-d lite mounted onto the payload rail mounted on the drone
