Chute! I have an MD 38mm rocket with your mag switch and Raven 2 un-flown ready to go as soon as the weather breaks. Now I can go to a so-called "private" launch
were I can connect the battery, shut off the electronics with the magnet immediately, go to the pad, set said rocket down (with the weird 3.7v 180mah battery on the pad)
flick the magnet to turn it on and how long will the Raven 1,2 or 3 last before launch to give a nominal flight with a DD rocket ?
At a private launch, and I mean a launch that is advertised on the internet and elsewhere where few people show up and I can get the rocket off within 10 to 15 minutes I wouldn't
care but if at a regional/national launch were the wait could be longer, much longer, please alleviate mine (and maybe others fears) about long wait times,
Flew at a MWP launch a few years ago with another makers product but I had a 2S 1300 Mah lipo on board. I was royally ticked off as it took close to an hour to get the rocket
into the air but I DID NOT fear a failure due to battery exhaustion. "Well, we want'a get's off these L1 certs first!!" I didn't give two sheets to the breeze cause I had
the "POWER". Jes', looked at the EggFinder LCD every now and then and listened to the reassuring "I'm still connected beep." And I was happy and got the rocket back in spite of "no maps". Got good data too within the limitations of the device. Not trying to start a "pissing" war but sincerely seeking legitimate information. Granted, I elected to use a big freaking battery. It was my choice and turned out to be a decent one for the conditions. Best regards, Kurt
