So today I began assembling that actual flight computer, Most of the parts arrived a while ago but I only have time on weekends to work on projects because of school and plus im in my junior year right now. I took a while to plan everything out because I would only have around 2 hours until the solder paste dried so when I put the solder paste on I began speedrunning, Most of the components went smoothly but the really small capacitors were kinda annoying, I still have a bunch of resistors and capacitors I havent placed yet but I placed the majority of the main parts. I haven’t started assembly on the backside of the pcb so that will be next week. I also have some solder bridges on the stm32 chip and I bent one of the pins but I think I can rebend it so it should be fine.Also I realized that I had messed up during ordering one of the parts I had only ordered 5 of the resistors even though I needed 19, I dont know how I missed this but its alright because I had enough money left in my grant to buy the extra so that will also arrive next week and thats basically it.
(Also note to reviewer during my lapse for this session I left for around 30 minutes to eat lunch and forgot to pause so you can remove the time accoridngly if thats possible)
