Well! After an opening burst to the 'mission' we can now afford to cruise a few paces ahead as most of the designing work has been accomplished and approved. However, keeping in mind that manufacturing demands a perfect design operation and analysis, we now intend to cross check our work with some experts in the field. Moreover, we need to get hold of the remaining sources of materials like the resin which may not be readily available in and around Calicut (Kozhikode). At this point we would like to admit that we are blessed to have Dr. Allesu K as one of our project guides who unlike other professors is more of an engineer in true sense and catches the nerve of a problem at its very root.
At present, we are analyzing a design on the bearings so as to calculate the optimum size of the axles (rear and front). In addition to this, we will also finalize our design of the propeller mechanism out of the two previously proposed designs in a matter of a week. By the end of this semester (end of October), we plan to complete the manufacturing of the chassis and the basic parts like the steering system as well as the wheel components.
So, in the next few days we plan to do two things. One, get the design of the propeller and the axles accomplished and approved. Another, sort out and enlist the probable sources from which we will be sourcing the materials for our project.
As such, there has to be constant communication and verification both among the group as well as between the group and the market. We thereby invite you to take initiatives and volunteer the effort in whichever manner possible. You can always contact us if you have something to offer (even a small piece of information or suggestion) and we are always ready to embrace your advice with our arms outstretched.
Last but certainly not the least, we would like to sign off by quoting The Mahatma
" Always aim a t complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be fine."
