KiCad: no circular PCB for CanSat form factor (Ø≈60 mm) #7
$ ls hardware/kicad/
comm_board eps_board obc_board sensor_board
All four KiCad boards are rectangular, designed to stack on PC/104 (CubeSat). None of them fit the Ø ≤ 64 mm internal envelope of the CanSat form factors registered in flight-software/core/form_factors.py:
cansat_minimal: inner diameter 64 mm, height 115 mm
cansat_standard: inner diameter 64 mm, height 80 mm
cansat_advanced: inner diameter 64 mm, height 115 mm
The reference BOMs under hardware/bom/by_form_factor/cansat_*.csv already list PCB-CANSAT-STD / PCB-CANSAT-ADV part numbers but no actual KiCad files ship.
Why it matters
CanSat is a first-class profile since v1.3.0 and has a dedicated ops guide (docs/ops/cansat_standard.md). A team building from this repo can compile firmware (make target-cansat_standard) and read the BOM CSV, but there's no PCB they can order.
