2024 -2026 Timeline and Dependency Charts Planning

Design shell

Fergo, what does the frame look like

Dynamics, how much space will wheels take/ turning radius etc, exposed suspension

Array - array size/config

• Decide what the car will look like(3/4 wheel)

• Design car in Solidworks: 12/14/24

• Begin work on one half of car: 1/11/25

• Finish that half: 5/3/25

• Begin work on second half: 5/17/24

• Finish full composite shell: 12/13/25

• Completely finalized aeroshell: spring break '26

• Final Designs Ideally: Before we leave for winter break

• Final Designs FINAL: 2/15/25

• Manufacturing Begins: 2/22/25

• Manufacturing Finished: Before start of winter break of 2025

• Integration starts depending on other systems

Trackwidth decided

Volumetric bounding box decided

Unsprung components assembled

Suspension components assembled

Volumetric bounding box decided (New Car)

Frame/Dynamics - where battery can go, how much space there is

• Training Finished - 10/12/24

• Day Break Battery Architecure Finalized - Mid October

• Day Break Enclosure design finalized (mounting, cooling) - Before Winter break

• Day Break Battery Manufactured - End of Feb/Early March

New Battery finished/manufacture (New Car)

Electrical

Frame

New Cooling Finished (New Car)

Frame, Aeroshell, Battery - duct routing, exhaust/inlet placement

Possibly: Ergo, Dynamics, and Enclosures placements (in case of any interferences)

High level placement of enclosures/electrical hardware (New Car)

Electrical
Frame - locate hardware + sensors on car

Aeroshell - lights
Ergo - brake and accel

Battery Pack Module/Segment interfacing hardware/parts (Day Break)

Power Systems - new/old cells

BPS - how modules will be organized into segments

Battery Box manufactured (Day Break)
