The monitoring will acquire data from a sensor during the flight, and send 
them to the general flight system (using normal electrical wire) which will 
send everything back with radio link. So we can say that the board will not 
be the main computer in the system, but just an external data collector 
(collect-compress-send). We plan to add redundancy to prevent data 
corruption.

What is your opinion about Graham's suggestion; PocketBeagle working with 
freeRTOS 
with TI starterware?

I really like your Arduino DUE suggestion, how would you compare his speed 
versus the PocketBeagle's? 

Arduino DUE:
- Microcontroller with clock speed of 84MHz (AT91SAM3X8E)
- SRAM of 96KB (Two banks: 64KB and 32KB)

PocketBeagle:
- Processor Ocatvo Systems OSD3358 1GHz ARM Cortex-A8
- 512MB DDR3 RAM Integrated

I don't get how to compare a Processor with RAM versus a Microcontroller 
with SRAM. (I know that the SRAM is faster than the RAM, but how I could 
know in advance which is faster?)

Thank you a lot for your time 

JD
