PITCH damping needed |

Quote: |
Measurements confirm that damping using small actuation magnets reduces pitch Q by a factor of 4 and is not enough.

I've tested the idea to use coils as eddy current dampers. I terminated them with a wire and measured Q factor during the ringdown test. Sadly, I did not see any significant damping and Q was ~150. We need stronger magnets if we want eddy current dumping down to Q~1.
