Artemis Boda

I am good at working in teams. I always try to listen to my teammates and build off of their ideas.
I need to work on documenting my work. I forget very easily

I want to document thoroughly and thoughtfully. I want to understand what it is I am doing instead of doing something that I don't know how it works. I want to communicate if I have any troubles.

I made my first schematic using fusion.

I made my first schematic using Fusion!!

PCB Sketches. I'm leaning toward the plane... :D

It's complicated enough that we can put multiple lights on it, and also do some silkscreen engraving as well. Our other designs would have been too simple if we had chosen to make them.

Here are our finished schematic, 2D, and 3D PCB. Kaelgn and I made an A-350. The LED's are on the wings and in the engines. I will remember how to make my own custom board shape and the procees of how they are made.

I really like the idea of making a cassette tape with cool art on the enclosure. I also like the idea of making a retro desktop computer with the speakers in the back and a mouse. I can incorporate a screen with this idea. Another idea is to make an airplane with the engines as speakers. A girl who took this class last year made something similar, but I'm hoping to get mine to have wheels and be able to roll around.

This feedback was super helpful! I know understand how much time this project will take and what a huge undertaking this will be

These are my sketches. I need to switch my speakers to the smallest ones so that the proportions will work. I need to 3-D print the fuselage in 4ish parts in order for it to fit onto the bed. Other than that, its time to start modelling.

Heres my completeted 3d model! I used sweep to make the flight deck a and the empennage along with the engines.

Finished PCB with LEDS

Heres a section of fuselage I made for my cardboard model

Schematic

Amp Breadboard! It was difficult to solder and make sure that my wires were in the right rows to get power. It worked after a bit of moving components around.

This is the PCB my group designed for the amp, but it didn't end up working. I had to switch to the standard one, and I got it to work! This took such a long time. Now, I need to assemble.

The intention of my project was to make an airplane. I think I succeded.

If I were to restart this project, I would plan everything out so as not to waste so much PLA and metal. I would also make the wings a lot thinner to reduce the weight.

I learned that airplanes are huge and require a lot of material to make, and I also learned how circuit boards work.
