We can certainly come up with that. I know of some people (read:businesses) that have programmable (I believe) shake testers that I _might_ be able to get access to as well. As for the shock testing, a drop test could almost certainly be tuned as a launch shock analogue.
My follow up though, before we go down that route, is "do the electrical engineering folks have ideas on how to protect from a shock/shake induced reboot?" From the mechanical side we could add some dampening and absorption in between the flight computer and the rocket proper, but we are really _really_ low on space for that. Barring programmatic solutions though, if the tests show a lack of resilience, I'm sure we could find a way to fit in mechanical aid. -Eric On Fri, Jul 5, 2013 at 8:36 AM, James Perkins <ja...@loowit.net> wrote: > Would the mechanical engineering folks have schemes for shake and shock > testing of the avionics segment? > On Jul 4, 2013 10:24 PM, "Nathan Bergey" <nathan.ber...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Well, this sucks. >> >> On Tuesday with Kenny's help we dd'd the entire CF card from the >> flight computer onto my laptop and mounted a copy so we could pull the >> complete logs from the FCF. >> >> >> The raw logs are all here: >> >> https://github.com/psas/flight_data-launch10/tree/master/fc/fc >> >> >> I finished writing a parser for the FCF logs tonight and found what I >> suspected based on the few packets that made it to the ground: >> >> There is no data from the launch (T-0 to apogee).
