Hi! Since using Keith and Bdale's shiny new flight computer wasn't really an option, and I wasn't terribly keen on laying out a board for the LPC header board... Keith talked us into option "C".
1) We're going to use the current "smashed up" LPC2148 board to log the SCP1000 output to flash. Dave is going to use the current firmware, and simply start logging until the flash is filled after we press both buttons on the dev board. 2) I have a GPS unit that fits in a small plastic box. We can use that to log data, too :) 3) Instead of building up a whole other temporary flight computer, we're going to use two timers. In particular, I'm trying to get two of these: http://www.perfectflite.com/catalog/microT2.html The idea here is that the static line now starts the count down of these two timers, one for the drogue and one for the main. Dead simple. Tim and Nathan: can you please come up with independent timer values for the following scenarios: 1) Drop at 2,600 AGL 2) Deploy drogue at 1,500 ft AGL. 3) Deploy main at 750 ft AGL. Thanks!
