We are on the right track. Let ATA know if we need to use their load cells or need any help with testing (David Gregg and Michael Pogue, ATA Meeting 4/26)
We will likely take our testing jig to ATA this week to seek guidance
We have received our single degree of freedom load cells
Seek Bewley lab for motor selection (Bewley, ATA Meeting 4/26)
We have borrowed a few motors from the Bewley's lab and Kyle has printed motor mounts for each
