We'd love to hear any more details you can provide to see if we can figure out what might have happened. Can you send us the telemetry log file (the .telem file)? Do you have pictures of how the system was mounted in the airframe? We'd also like to hear back if you ever find the airframe; we've managed to recover data from broken hardware in the past, as long as the flash chip hasn't been destroyed. If you've got any other ideas or information, please send them along -- we're very interested in trying to figure out how to keep this from happening again. Again, our condolences on this unsuccessful flight. -keith
