  1. Phase 1 (Months 1–2): Radio fundamentals with an SDR
    chill, uk spoken poetry, jazz, bass and piano, slow · 4:14
    A cheap RTL-SDR dongle becomes a gateway into the invisible spectrum, as listeners learn to tune frequencies, read waterfalls, and grasp core concepts like bandwidth through hands-on radio exploration.
  2. Phase 2 (Months 3–4): Embedded and the flight stack
    spoken word poetic, piano jazz · 3:53
    Dive into months three and four of embedded development, wiring an ESP32 with Rust to blink LEDs, read IMU data over I2C, and log timestamped sensor readings to flash storage as the flight stack takes shape.
  3. Phase 3 (Months 5–6): Autonomy and denied environments
    melodic piano, duet male female · 4:03
    Two computers, one aircraft: explore how a companion board and flight controller coordinate through nodes, topics, and TF2 frame transforms to keep perception and control aligned when GPS and communications can't be trusted.
  4. Habits
    chill, uk spoken poetry, jazz, bass and piano, slow · 3:58
    A laid-back meditation on documenting engineering work in the open, showing how public notebooks, photos, and code snippets turn scattered antenna experiments into a lasting record of craft.
