Hi everyone,

It's early spring and the prototype is still outside chasing the sun!

The bad weather ruined the plywood a bit but the circuit and the engines withstood the rain and cold.

From a mechanical point of view we had to:

- replace a damaged nut (inside the actuator)
- replace the collar that supports the panels

during the winter, when the sun was available, we were able to charge a power bank, which is proving to be a convenience!
