Lou McFadin, W5DID, is involved in work on the following modules:
  • Magnetorquer rods
  • Power switching system
    (This is the system which connects the power from the batteries, the BCR (Battery Charge Regulators and the power busses to the entire spacecraft)
  • High Current Sensors
    (These telemeter the battery and various bus current to the ground)
  • Arc jet engine (ATOS) Gas generator heater controller
  • LIU
  • SEU
  • wiring harness for the spacecraft

Lou is managing the P3D Laboratory in Orlando/Florida. That task includes everything from planing the work on P3D to managing the volunteers working at the lab.

He also is the P3D integration manager. That means he is responsible for seeing to it that all the various systems really will play together when they arrive.

Last but not least, he is taking out the trash when necessary.
