Seagull Wireless Dashboard Flight System ● $369.99 ● 900 MHz, 200mW (US FCC Approved, up to 1.2 Miles Range with included Wire Antennas) The Seagull Telemetry system has 3 main components: ● Seagull Dashboard Telemetry Receiver - this unit displays telemetry data, and sounds alarms when problems occur. ● Onboard Flight Data Recorder - this unit collects the data from built-in and external sensors. ● Onboard Telemetry Transmitter - this unit sends the data from the Recorder to the Dashboard ● Airspeed from ~9MPH to 290MPH ● USB Live Mode for real time bench monitoring ● Altitude to 25,000+ feet ● Lightweight - approx 1.5 ounces with unit and cables ● Ultra-low power consumption - around 35 mA ● Fully compatible with all known flight RC radios – no need to replace existing electronics ● Small self-contained LCD Telemetry receiver attaches simply to controller

Batteries FPV Transmitter: 11.1V-12V | 2s-4s FPV Receiver: 11.1V-12V | 2s-3s Arduino: 5V-12V for barrel jack Servos: ?? What I think we Need: -2 LiPo 3S 11.1V batteries: 1 for plane and 1 for receiver on ground -Low Voltage Cutoff or LiPo Voltage Alarm
7
Next Week … -Battery and power calculations -Servo current drain -DAS power: Tx/Rx, Arduino, Sensors -FPV power: Tx/Rx (separate locations) -Start assembling and coding -Order batteries, charger, and new airspeed sensor if needed -Determine electrical component of drop mechanism to order parts
