Pre-flight:
-SATCOM inop (groundbot not connected on HexChat, although Chris was getting Aeros packets once a minute on ground)
-PHIPS unable to connect (60Hz and 400Hz AI power remains on during flight)
Flight 1:
-2DS and HVPS lost power after takeoff, likely due to luggage bumping into forward power cables . Powered on after moving luggage and resetting circuit breakersat L-6 rack (where power cables from 2DS and HVPS plates plug into power drop box). 2DS power was flickering while HVPS power remained off. Both probes reconnected without issue after we moved the luggage, wiggled power cables at power drop box connection, and reset power on 2DS and HVPS plates.
