Pickup work

There were several bits that had been being put aside that we worked on this evening. We made the final thrust box stiffening brackets and installed them. Rick installed the RF board and wired the load cells in the hub and on the chassis. I drilled the prop shaft for a safety pin. We applied Loctite to about a thousand bolts and cap screws. On and on.

Bright and early in the morning we'll be spinning the rig up on the dyno and we'll find out how good or bad we've done both with our drive system and propeller.
